MrJinje Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 (edited) Yes. It was down temporarily. But it is back online now. On a side note, they must've changed the URL processing, my old links do not work anymore. It still occurs after I deleted my cookie, is this a permanent change ? What about all the old-style links in everyones post's. Do they all re-direct to the home page now ?This was working yesterday, now redirects to main page. http://www.msfn.org/board/mr-jinje-dism-tool-t138804.htmlToday the new link is this.http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=138804 Edited January 28, 2010 by MrJinje Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrJinje Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Sounds like a temporary thing, probably happens so often I just never caught it before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluberti Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 We're in the middle of a bit of database and site migration and maintenance, so things might be a little iffy for a bit. Hopefully when it's all done you'll find it was worth it . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
