Having problems connecting to this forum?

dp · March 26th, 2009, 17:33

We have received reports that some people recently (since Saturday, March 21st) started having problems connecting to the forum from certain Internet providers.

The most likely reason for this problem is that our forum was moved to a new (faster) web server on March 21st, and your name servers have not yet refreshed their records. (Name servers are what translates a human readable address like LANDCFORUM.COM into a numeric address that the computers understand. If the name servers fail, you can't connect.)

If I'm right, your problem will fix itself eventually, but if it doesn't, those of you that still have to jump through some hoops to be able to connect should tell me about it here.
