If a public forum is permanently down, is it possible to send a message

Gratuitous Arguments by Pavitra:

I'd like to reexamine the precedent that messages sent via a 'down'
forum occur when sent to the list, particularly if the sender is aware
that the forum is down. The timing of slow-sent messages, like the
validity of obfuscated ones, should be partly based on the sender's
intent. Deliberate latency is a Bad Thing.

Don't make me do a proof of concept.

========================================================================

Judge coppro's Arguments:

FALSE. "A public message is a message sent via a public forum..." Since 
the message never actually made it to the public forum and was thusly 
not relayed by it, it can hardly be said that the message was sent via a 
public forum. Good of the game very very strongly encourages this 
interpretation.
