Anyone else getting this :(

Is this sabotage - or a virus - or is it just me :p

Me too, which is why I called in here to see if there was any news. Not really the first post I intended :(

Didn't something similar happen a few months ago which turned out to be because TVOC hadn't paid their website hosts! Surely they wouldn't allow the same thing to happen again?

Been like it for a while now. ISSL's other websites seem to be working. I hope it's just a glitch or maintenance, and not the usual disagreement about payment. I'm guessing it's the latter - again, but hopefully I'm wrong.

I believe that company belongs to Paul Spann.

Perhaps the site management is moving to another outfit?

Howdy, RHP. How's the throwing arm?

It's completely different from the message that was displayed when there were issues before.

The screen you see now is normally what appears when the routing on the hosts servers is messed up.

Would think it's just a temporary thing.

Sums up the attitude of most VTST members really when the first thought when seeing that screen wasn't "oh it must be a technical problem" but "oh no, it must be sabotage or a virus" 8-|

I think this is a little harsh and derogatory, Ian. Experience is what people are basing their assumptions on. We all know the relations have not being good between ISSL and VTST of late, so it is fair to assume that the plug *could* have been pulled once again. No one ever said is was.

True, I may have been a bit harsh I admit but the point I was trying to make is when the tiniest of things happen, people seem to jump up and down and assume the worst. The site was down for a hour or so, if it had been down for a whole day I would be more worried.

In the current VTST climate Ian & considering what has been said before I think its natural for members to jump to conclusions of a doubtful nature - that forum means so much to so many they fear losing it either permanently or temporarily..........
