Anyone know what's up with DF? Last night their boards were fine, but today my bookmark took me to a bizarre "generic gaming" site that looked nothing like the DF that we know and love. Strange.  |

That is weird, and I was just on the forums a few hours ago.  |

Looks like someone forgot to renew the DNS entry at Network Solutions so it is being held by them as an AD page until something changes.
Tech Email:pendingrenewalordeletion@networksolutions.com
Name Server:NS1.PENDINGRENEWALDELETION.COM
Name Server:NS2.PENDINGRENEWALDELETION.COM
Hopefully whoever runs it will sort it out quickly.

I tried the backdoor you gave us, jdjarvis, and it did get me to a main DF page. Only, when I tried to log in it sent me back to the generic non-DF thingie again. I guess I can still read content, just not log in and post to it. |

It is working for me now, but if still not for you login and when it takes you to .org manually type in .net and you should be able to post.

It seems to be working fine this morning. Steve posted that he checked with Stuart the former Admin and apparently their was some problem with auto renewal that neither one of them was told about.

I've still had issues with DF today. I'll have to try again...

I must have to clear cookies or something. When I go (but not log in) I get something that looks really basic without all of the graphic bells'n'whistles I usually get there. Then when I try to click on threads I go to the generic page again. Darned AOL. |

It's working for me now, you probably just have to clear your browser's cache. Holding down shift and clicking reload may work for you as well, that forces the browser to fetch a page without using its local cache.

That worked for me, so thanks! DF is alive again for me!

The only issue I experienced in the last couple of days (I guess I missed it when the site was down entirely) was that my email notifications weren't loading the pages of the threads the links in my emails pointed to. I regularly clean (almost every day) with a handful of cleaners (CCleaner, JetClean, Glary Utilities, Wise Cleaner 365, etc.) as well.
The email notifications finally started working for me again about 12 hrs ago.
