Is BBCboards down?

Post by Demoman » Tue Nov 24, 2015 8:27 pm

Wondering if anyone else is having issues there or why for some reason my IP is being denied service to that forum. Thanks.

It kinda concerned me when I tried getting on as a pre prompted "checking your browser" page loaded and it seemed very odd, almost like I might have downloaded a virus. You guys get the "cloudflare is checking your browser" page? Kind of unnerving to me!

I've had trouble accessing it off and on for the past week or so. Today, it's not working again. I get the same page from my provider when an address isn't found.

I was wondering that ... someone went through a lot of effort to take down a fishing site :?

I've been a member there for a number of years (different screen name) and the fact is it's one of the least moderated sites of it's type out there - contrary to some opinions out there. Al has his limits, but generally Lounge threads are left alone until certain lines are crossed.

I feel for the sponsors who lost a ton of revenue they missed out on for the beginning of the holidays. I hope it all works out for the best.

We'll just have to agree to disagree!
I ventured in the lounge, it was the end of me.
