where has the site been?

Postby phlat65 » Sun Nov 25, 2007 11:06 pm

Man, i have been real bummed, every time I have tried to log on since late september, I just get a site not found message, Today is the first I have been able to log on, and I see messages for the whole time. Was it just me?

Good to be back for sure. Sooo much info in here we have worked as a group to compile for a long time.

when the site changed some got lost do to the front page address changed several times over about a week
even i got lost for a few hours in the shuffle as Boris launched a new ship

enlarge the browser window for address and look for a past link to site
then nav to the home page you may be using a bad browser address do to changes
this will some times get you in if some one hijacks the front page

best to bookmark more than the front page that way if someone hijacks front page
you can still find a path for log in

welcome back phlat

i made some changes in the domain name handling, but that took place in October, so I'm sure why you haven't been able to access it since September.
one possibility is that the domain name resolving server in use by your local ISP may have held a wrong record, but thats just a theory.

as for the changes that Dave described, that was a purely temporary shuffling of web site names when i installed the new board system
old.mzriders.com / new.mzriders.com

bookmarking this as
http://www.mzriders.com or http://mzriders.com is sufficient.

this is how web search engines see us, and i made sure that they only point to the most current state
