BidFather.com is an unverified (but getting verified) penny auction that launched today. They went offline between 12:30 and 12:40 p.m. CST. PennyBurners suspects their shared hosting account may have exceeded the allocated resources. PennyBurners has emailed BidFather with support, to try and get them back online ASAP.

We hope to see them back up and running ASAP!

 

Update:

BidFather.com just emailed us back.  Here is their response

Hello Nicholas,

We are currently on a VPS with 8GB of RAM and apparently that is not enough. We will be upgrading to a dedicated server tonight as we did not expect this much traffic whatsoever. If you have any suggestions, please let me know

We did email them our recommendation. We hope they get back online soon, but transferring hosts can take upto 2 days if they are able to start immediately.

We will keep you posted!
