                    I wonder if the members will get a refund or extension on their membership?

                              The main reason forum sites sometimes go down is due to the server being powered by
                              a trans phased,mutli quad inhibitor coil operating in a single quantum reality loop.this can sometimes offset the transmission beam,if it hits any of the floating sattelites left in orbit from the proposed star wars programme,and therefore the signal is deflected into space and not back to the sites main server compleing the active circuit and allowing site access.
                              this is my excuse until someone else comes up with better bullshot.lol

                                        I’ll stick with the French excuse. Halfway through it stops loading….. Very unlike those Frenchies!

                                          People wouldn’t have to go to other forums (paid or not) if this site had anything worth writing about. Many members ask questions and they go unanswered, the biggest threads barely go two pages, so you can see why people want something else.

                                          It would of been nice of the site admin to at least let people know whats going on!

                                            I agree with your first point it seems very quiet on here by comparison.

                                            But regards your second point I’m a bit confused how they are going to let people know, can’t PM you and can’t get a webpage up of any description at the mo even to say experiencing techinical difficulties? For all we know admin could have taken the site down to prevent fraudulent access to your personal data….highly unlikely though, I like the french fantasy haha!

                                              People wouldn’t have to go to other forums (paid or not) if this site had anything worth writing about – Same things to write about on this forum as MFS or any other angling forum for that matter. More than 50 active threads on this part of the site in August alone which suggests that some members have something to say on this forum.

                                              Many members ask questions and they go unanswered – Ask a reasonable question and im sure someone else will answer it. More than enough quality anglers who use this forum and are always happy to help.

                                              the biggest threads barely go two pages, so you can see why people want something else – Clearly you dont visit this forum very often and your relatively new to this forum. There are some massive threads on this forum. Some of the very best angling threads ever created are on this forum.

                                              Any forum is only as good as the members who open the threads with interesting questions or discussion points. Create a few interesting threads and you will find the this forum will come alive with healthy discussion and quality advise. Its free and open to all and your able to take part as long as you treat people with a little respect! Very few people get banned from this forum as long as you behave. That cannot be said of MFS unless the admin on MFS have changed there policy since i was last on that forum. So, this forum has a lot going for it. Total fishing forum gets more hits than any other fishing forum. So, someone must be doing something right.

                                              Most of the admin from MFS are members on here. So, i would suggest that they dont know whats going on with their forum. So they cannot tell its members when the problem will be resolved. Either that or they dont want to tell its members whats going on for some strange reason.

                                              Might get very interesting on ths forum if MFS is closed for a little bit longer, lol.

                                                In the past yes they were some excellent threads and some very good discussions and it was the place to get information but now, no!

                                                  There are a few nuggets of good threads on here but the majority now seem to have very little input. I do appreciate its down to the membership to generate that interest but that would appear to be lacking of late.

                                                      Mark T, couldn’t notify anyone as the server hosts have issues and access has been sporadic. I was away until Sunday so didn’t have chance to do anything until Monday. Don’t pick on TB you will only upset him bless him…

                                                      We are currently experiencing networking issues with one of our VPS nodes.

                                                      Our engineers are aware off the issues and are currently working to resolve the issue.

                                                      We will provide further updates once we have further information.

                                                      Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.

                                                          The site is up and running to most. The problem the server hosts have is the node that’s playing up isn’t communicating with some ISP’s like Sky and talk talk. It also affects some mobile phone access. The main problem is getting some sense from the ‘customer service’ people.

                                                                              Each to their own but never a truer word spoken than what ive quoted above!!!!!!!. The site and running of it is fine, its just a shame about some of the drivel posted by anglers that talk a good game (And thats not everyone here obviously, but theres far too many compared to other fishing websites out their IMO).

                                                                              Chatbox to unwind and talk rubbish to mates whilst the boyfriend is watching topgear, loads of comps and matches to enter (50 plus this year on one leading site!!) and the stars of angling on hand to answer questions every day rather than logging in here, seeing the usual 1 page of new posts all with only 1 reply, unless its off topic about Manshitty then we have a classic a foot :rolleyes: , theres more to life………….
