Anybody know what's happening with the AA forums? Since yesterday afternoon, when I try to go to the site, I've been getting this:
I have no idea if anyone has any interest in that site anymore (administrator wise) Donkey was holding the fort for a while and 3D popped back, lionel hasn't been heard from in years. Maybe the subs are overdue.
I hope that's not a permanent state of affairs, there's a tons great information over there, it would be a shame to lose it all.
Huh, I still check in there daily, was there yesterday and it seemed to work fine: all the new diet and boner pill spam posts came through loud and clear. Must have been before whatever happened happened. Now I am getting the same error message. Hopefully it's an easy fix. Would hate to see our friends who haven't come over here yet get lost/orphaned if the old home base is really done for! Fingers crossed that isn't the case... Jeff
Anon kept it rolling for a long time but he's been abscent for years, he was the only other I knew that actually communicated with Lio
There's copies saved on the Wayback Machine site: https://web.archive.org/web/20191005051806/http://www.alloyavenue.com:80/vb/forum.php It seems to browse through the postings a bit slow but works.
I'm not sure what this means but the intro page i.e. www.alloyavenue.com is still up, it's the forums and blogs that are down.
They might have been upgrading their software. It looks like they have a 2020 version of v bulleton. If you cannot connect still, you might have to wipe your cookies.
The site is still down for me, I'm reluctant to start clearing cookies on this PC, it's rather old and fragile and things tend to go sh*te when I touch anything. Not sure if I still have Donkey's email but will have a look.
Apparantly, according to the Great British BBC! Lockdown has swamped it. I'm inclined to check but not sure my AV is up to it.
I think I'll just trust the BBC on that one and stick with my casting/tool catalogue/machining porn, ooohh yeeeaaah.
I have heard that any web sight that is a, Donald Trump non-supporting website, is slowly getting shut down. Don’t let rummers get the best of us. Cheers to a shot of bleach.
