Third of the Website Layout Gone

For some reason, the site format has suddenly lost the right-most third or so of its space, there's just a new box that says array on the right hand side and empty space beneath.

Is this a new website change (like ad space) or is this related to the totally-not-hacks-we-swear thing that took Microsoft's servers offline and seems to have half the internet lagging (including this site)?

EDIT
Also there's no more Main Forum label on threads and just says 'apache' above the thread address (Forum>Announcement>Bugs in this case).

i was gonna make a topic of my own about this, but i guess i don't need to.

yeah, i can definitely confirm this.........weird looking "array" box that, unless there's some planned forum upgrade or whatever related to it in the future, really just squished the heck out of everything. its more annoying than it is even remotely......helpful?
 
I'm calling it now: whatever's keeping Microsoft's servers down is spreading, this isn't the only website that's been down for me today, and a lot of sites loaded really slow for a while there. Incidentally the FAA has canceled all plane takeoffs in America. I'm sure there is no connection.

The website is back to looking as it's supposed to, though, so the offline time was put to good use. Thank you, admins.
