    Problems with Gunboards 1/6/20

    Is anyone having problems getting onto the Gunboards Forum ?

    Had the problem for a couple of days now, but don't know if its 'just me' (or not).

    Mine are not the best, but they are not too bad. I can think of lots of Enfields I'd rather have but instead of constantly striving for more, sometimes it's good to be satisfied with what one has...

    If a site is offline (you are getting a timeout message or it does not open), try this.

    Check if it is only you. Go HERE and type in "gunboards.com", to see if it is down for everyone or just you.

    Regards,

    When I check on the link you kindly provided it say "its just you". Strange - there must be quite a few of us "just you"

    It has been up and down sporadically. Much, much more down than up. Began yesterday afternoon.

    As a Moderator, I can relay that none of the Moderator crew received any warning from Admin. So, it was not planned, to my knowledge.

    The error page which appears states that the browser cannot find the server. This last happened for a few days in 2017 (2014, 2012, 2009). Let's hope it is temporary again.

    I got the same "it's just you" message... I typed "forums.gunboards" in and it came right up and worked on my 'favorite' links ever since....

    Seems to be working normal again now, as are the other sites I couldn't access earlier. Odd.

    Would be nice if someone was able to archive all of John Wall's posts. If the site isn't profitable enough the Canadians will pull the plug without warning. Also the company that owns it is owned by the media company that owns the Toronto Star, which is a left wing media company. So they have no love for firearms.
