Smf out of the game?
« on July 17th, 2012, 06:07 AM »
Not trying to stir up trouble, but did the SMF community go bye-bye? I can't seem to access their site and if I do get their site, I get a very, very broken site.

I'm not a huge supporter but just curious is all.

Nah, still going. Perhaps you were lucky enough to catch a server hiccup.

It has been sluggish lately.
  When we unite against a common enemy that attacks our ethos, it nurtures group solidarity. Trolls are sensational, yes, but we keep everyone honest.

Odd, because I'm still having issues viewing their site in both IE and FF. I haven't tested other browsers yet though. I've attached a file to show what I see when I go to their site.

Broken SMF image

I tried to embed the image, but for whatever reason, the forum keeps breaking the link by inserting additional http:// information.

Alright, but performing 3 days worth of server tweaks that's breaking their site?

I wouldn't say it's breaking the site...   no one other than you seems to be having trouble, except for some lag...

Exactly my point of asking this question and trying to figure out why...

No problems here, haven't notice anything problems in the past few days. Maybe you have a bad cache, clear it and try again.

I found the culprit. I started seriously digging around when some programming sites I frequent were breaking too. Apparently my Firewall decided to start filtering them out as bad urls for whatever reason.

Everything's as it should be now. Thanks for the suggestions and help all!
