kicked me out (pls help)

while i was working on my tree, the page told me changes could not be saved. i reloaded the page, and while my account seems intact (i could even create a new family tree), it tells me i don't have permission to access any of my previously created trees. I'm assuming the servers must have collapsed or something — I'm very worried nonetheless, the amounts of work put into this have been insane.

Would appreciate any help, even if it's just a link to a more direct helpline.

I'm having this same issue.
I have the same issue.  I was looking at my family tree over the weekend, but now I get the message telling me I don’t have permission to view it.
I have the same problem as of just this afternoon, I am desperate for a solution to this same issue!!
This just happened to me as well :( I also think it's related to the servers, so hopefully we will get some news from the moderators in the next few days.
I'm having similar issues

One of the family storage servers crashed, we're working on it...

This seems to be an issue with the servers. I'm sure that there's nothing permanently broken with the system, just a temporary hiccup. I would suggest waiting it out until one of the developers notices the issue and can resolves it. Just stay calm :)

Everything is back to normal, sorry for the outage (was around 2 hours).
