Anyone know what happened to civfanatics web site? I am getting file not found error 404 and his host keeps popping up? I hope he is not offline for good? Thanks

No, I was just there. I've noticed that it's been rather sluggish lately though, and they were down for awhile there. They just seem to be having some server problems.

[notyoueither]

There were other lost sheep earlier. I think it is back now.

nah

[Desert Dog]

down for a long time

It was down for quite some time. In the end I made an ass out of myself posting the question. Oh well, I am good at making an ass out of myself. Glad he is not offline though.

Well since I am here I will mention again, Elucidus is still seeking suggestions on The Balancer mod. We will not turn down any serious comments or suggestions to include in the mod. (Changes from previous?) The mod will be on the PTW XP disk when it is released this fall.
We are busy converting the mod to work with 1.29f properly and adding new things that every one should enjoy. We need testers currently we only have 2 testers including myself. We have a forum setup for everyone to stop by and give us some input. Elucidus has done a really good job check it out, still in process of setting everything up but site is running. The Balancer Mod Forums @:

Nope, its a DNS error, the host moved to a new server and it usualy take around 2 days for the new numeric address for the URL to be distributed to the DNS servers spread throughout the net. If you canot get to the forums usuing the URL, try going first to the site page

https://www.civfanatics.com

and enter the forums there. Some favorites or bookmarks may use numeric IP address rather than URL, and thus may need replacing.

Thanks for the reply

Thanks for letting me know although that link didn't work either. I understand the problem if the DNS server has been relocated should be fine in a few days.

Niether the main page nor the forum's URL are working for me.

Sheesh, you get off the interenet for 10 minutes and suddenly all of CFC's down.....

[Pavlov]

Doesn't work for me neither. Of course, I only read CFC for the articles.

For flip sake, I knew it was slow but there is no need for the WHOLE site to stop working. I blame Gonzo

I tried the link you provided, It is still going to that "The page cannot be displayed" page . It was off line last night and then came back online. Worked fine this morning and now it is still off line. What is going on with CFC?

[Lefty Scaevola]

I am logged on there right now. I do not know what else might be going on; I am not a techie.

[CivGeneral]

It would have been nice for TF to update the www.civfanatics.net page on the current status. Even the last time when the forums were down, It said (and still says now)

From Civfanatics.net
Everything is working within specified parameters

The Forums are down, the CFC is down and no one bothered to change the network satus to inform us of what is going on with CFC .

[Richelieu]

I don't have any problems either...
