looks like they're having some server problems?



I'm shocked that there is (was?) another web site related to firearms [Muaha]

I heard that they were putting another one together - just surprised to see it's been online already. I might have to spread my wings a bit and visit 2 web pages for now on.[ROFL3]

Well for whatever reason they updated registration on September 1. The 1st of september could indicate that the domain expired, went into expiring status and they lost it etc, but I doubt it. Whatever the reason for it being down, it honestly appears that the owner of 57forum intentially caused it (probably by changing nameservers), and forgot/didnt know how to automatically redirect fivesevenforum to 57forum. Hard to say this early and this is all based on glancing at basic whois data.

Yah, at the new site there is a thread about what all went on. Gist of it is that a person bought the site from the owner/creator who then didn't/wouldn't turn over the codewords for access/controll. After a number of months the old owner went in and deleted everything. the new owners have transfered what they could salvage and have restarted it.

Oh, and they are wanting to have a long talk with the old owner who seems to have dropped off the face of the planet. LOL...who would have guessed?
