origin = ns1.zoneedit.com
mail addr = soacontact.zoneedit.com
serial = 986565363
refresh = 14400 (4H)
retry = 7200 (2H)
expire = 864000 (864000)
minimum ttl = 60 (1M)Someone appears to have botched your DNS and set the TTL to 60 seconds while refresh and retry are both well in excess of this.

Also your DNS servers appear to be under heavy load so queries tend to timeout (often) this causes eratic websurfing of this site.

Good DNS has retry < refresh < ttl < expire

Some sane values might be refresh = 10800 (3H)
retry = 3600 (1H)
expire = 604800 (1W)
minimum ttl = 86400 (1D)

Very rightly said Ian

while you're changing the dns configuration, can you add a CNAME for forums.doom9.org ?
