Main problem is what's been said in the thread already - but the thing is there seems to be no pattern.... some people can see it, some people can not.
1. Obviously this duality happens simultaneously (so its not just simple downtime), because if you refer to the first posts of this thread, you and I made posts minutes within each other with both sides seeing different things. Plus, I can go to any other Hostony user's site perfectly fine, while at the same time mine is broken.
2. It's not just me, since others here have posted that they see the index page as well.
3. When the site is "down" and shows the index page, I am unable to access FTP and email as well. Sometimes the FTP doesn't even work, even when the site is up. I haven't even bothered with the email any further than "it doesn't work". For FTP, it connects to the server, accepts my username, but gives an invalid password warning (it's the right password).
4. Similarily I cannot access the control panel through my site when it's down, BUT, I can access it through another Hostony site, for example, through
http://www.blah.com:2082 and then typing in my username and password.
5. This never happened when I had the temporary site (before the domain was propagated). Could that have to do with anything?
6. I wouldn't mind so much if this happened once in a while - but it happens pretty much 80% of the time. A day when I can actually see my site is like a miracle. I have an important project that I need to share with many people within a month, obviously it's not going to happen with the way my site is right now.
Thank you for your time and willingness to help, it's greatly appreciated.
