Same has been going on for me lately, and some people could get on, and others couldn't

Well, um, at times it could really be down since our host still works on the servers, they hope to finish everything before New Year. When this downtime happens, it's down for everyone.
The other downtime you might (but shouldn't really) experience is the one that only happens for you and not for others. This might be caused by their security system they're currently tweaking to not to cause any false alerts. You can check if it's not working only for you by asking someone else to access the forum or by using proxy. If they say it works for them, then record the date and time it happened to you and post it here afterwards including the info about what you were doing (if you were browsing the forum at that time) when this happened. Then I'll check the error log and will bug tech support about it.

Site has been laggy and I could not sign on for 2 days, it would always say connection failed or network not found.

Well, there have been some downtime which I missed, I guess. At least I see the staff mentioning this and apologizing for the inconvenience that has caused. As for the lagginess, I don't know, at the moment it works great for me. Maybe it depends on the time you're accessing it.

If you cannot access our forum I highly advise you to use any proxy service and try to access it through that service. Otherwise I won't be able to figure out what problem to report to the staff. Basically, if you can't access the website neither directly nor through proxy, this means the whole service is down. But if you can access it through a proxy this means a security system has banned you for 24 hours, and I must report this problem to staff.

I log in every day at least 4-5 times (yep lol) and I don't know how you can get a ban for that...

I have no idea how it works and why it decides to ban people, but of course it shouldn't ban anyone here for anything. Any kind of banning like that is a bug and I'll be reporting them. In case this happens (that is, if you made sure you can't access the forum directly but can access it through proxy) knowing your IP at that time would help me a lot too, so they could check the logs. Also knowing what you did that was unusual. For instance, refreshing the page every second, clicking the same link too many times to make it load faster... That's just a guess, as I said, I have no idea what might be causing this. But if there is such a problem, they definitely need to fix it, it's not gonna stay this way.
