That's odd...forums that are open during business hours only?

I went out to Fender.com to see about rewiring my Telecaster, and their forums are only open for posted between 8am-5pm MT daily. Isn't that strange? If you're a Fender customer on the other side of the world, you'll be posting at like 3am...seems like an non-thought-out policy. You know, like something my boss would make.

Maybe their Moderators are actual paid employees which work typical business hours?

But you would expect a forum to be open 24/7/365.

For the time being these forums will be opened for posting between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m., and that's Arizona time. If you?re posting something at 5:25 then you?d better post quickly! Over time this restriction may be adjusted or lifted, though this again is dependent on the community's general adherence to the requests above.

I submit to you that the forums in ancient Rome had better hours than these.

Must have had a spam or hacker problem.
