Yep, dunno what the story is. Occasionally web hoster might have a hiccup or fees are overdue. Hopefully won't be down for too long.

Server has been touchy for the last few days :roll:
And I said, Officer, I didn't want to be drunk in public...I wanna be drunk in the bar. Now last time I checked it was still legal to be drunk in the bar. They threw me into public...arrest them!

If any of the MiniResource guys need the facility of a forum, they are welcome to use ours until they have the problems with their server sorted.

I think some of the threads on MF are locked to prevent people posting on such things as peoples projects etc.

Google appears to show no new pages indexed on http://www.miniresource.com in the last 7 days... implies its been (mostly) down for that period at least.

if the site was hacked, or their host provider compromised you'd think they would have a contingency plan in place by now.
its a loss for sure.

Hey guys,

Basically what has happened is that the company controlling the domain name have gone AWOL, got hacked and the DNS server settings were changed. It's a bit bizarre, as the DNS hasn't resolved for some people.

I have been too busy recently to even look into it - going to have a look today.

All I can say is sorry to all the loyal users who have not been able to get on for the past while!


(p.s - can someone change the s to a c in the title of the thread please?)
