Strange Problem trying to get to Players' Corner

[Atlanteax]

Alright, today I noticed for some reason, that on my computer, I can't access the players' corner.

I get an error message that says something like:
Can't find website forum.gsplayers.com
Error 500 Unknown Host
Site may no longer exist or may have moved
Double check for misspelling or other errors
If these suggestions do not work, try reseting computer.

But then below it there is the search feature that shows the closest links (in case one mistyped) under "Matching Sites" and it has the forum.gsplayers.com/today.php link (but won't work).

So I tried my IE browser, which was able to access the forums just fine in the afternoon (normally I use AOL's webbrowser) ... but then in the evening I could get the today.php link to work, but couldn't read any threads... and now, a few hours later, trying again, and I can't even get the today.php to work.

Did the deal where I deleted temporary internet files and cookies, no improvement.

Did the shutdown, unplug cable, wait, plug cable in, reboot... no improvement either.

.

So I jumped to the other computers on the home network, and they can access just fine.

So I don't know what the deal is with my computer, as I'm able to access all other websites normally. :?:

Almost seems like its denying the specific IP address of my computer any access to the forum?

.

Any suggestions?

It was giving me shit on IE earlier, but when I tried with Netscape it worked fine.

Well damn, is everyone having a problem? I went to the "today's post" page, and there was like nothing there....

Holycrap I couldn't get to the PC for days! Was going bloody stir crazy.

Just seeing this dark blue/grey background gives me new hope for life!

Not sure who fixed it but goddamn is it good to be back!

:clap:

[CrystalTears]

It sure is. :D

[Kitsun]

Oddly enough I can get in through IE fine but some friends still can't seem to access the site.

[Atlanteax]

Looks like it's back up and running?

"I lllliiiiivvvvvvveeeee!!!!!"

[Miss X]

YAY!!! No more work boredom!! :heart: PC!

[Anebriated]

I have something to do while I wait in the long merchant lines and between hunts again now... thats a relief. I had actually started reading the official boards. Yeah, i know, its scary.

Plz don't go down anymore. Nothing but Fazed, Fark, and KoL sucks.

On a visit to those other boards (hoping to get some information on le broken PC), I found the best quote evar:

If the PC is ever down that long again, Canada and Connecticut better pray I'm not in control of the space lasers at that moment.

[CrystalTears]

I can feel the love already! :drunk:

[Kitsun]

Anybody have any idea what happened?

Where's Kranar when ya need him?!

[CrystalTears]

The domain expired and it had to be renewed. Takes a day or two after activation for it to work again. Sorry for the inconvenience.

[Kitsun]

Let me know who to send the hate mail to!

Is it me or does a major site go down every main GS event? heh.

<-- Reader of two slave narratives and a John Grisham book in the last few days.

[Drew2]

I read Ender's Game on Monday and it's like one of the best books ever. Definitely read it.

[CrystalTears]

Hate mail? Well I suppose if you must it would be.. um.. to uh.. HarmNone! Yeah her! It was her!

Seriously though, you can talk to myself or Kranar if you wanna vent. I'm always here for you guys. :)

You were mysteriously absent from AIM when I wanted to 'vent'.

[Kitsun]

I was wishing I had kept someone's IM on my buddy list so I could tweak out.

It was a bad experience. So lonely. All alone... alone.

:cry:

Shaddap Park. You only love me when I agree with you. I was online damnit! Ask.. lots of people! :cry:

[Skirmisher]

Eh, phooey on you.

I was able to see the PC fine the whole time.
:wow:

[imported_Kranar]

Thanks go to CrystalTears for fixing it.

:heart:

[Skirmisher]

Now waaaiiiit just a minute there! It was not me! I was sitting here, staring at the white screen of ultimate doom, just like everybody else!

I cried. I beat my breast until I have bruises. I wailed and mourned. It was not I. I was busy making an ass of myself over the fact that the PC was not operating.:headbutt:

It is soooo good to be back! Pardon me for a moment while I jump up and down and grin like an idiot. :D

HarmNone is glad to be back and had nothing to do with the whole mess!

[Betheny]

I thought it was just me. :(

I actually resorted to socializing for once.

At least I have plans for the 4th now.
