I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this topic, but is anyone else here having trouble accessing The Tech Guys Forum (http://forums.thetechguys.com/)? I've posted over there a couple of times, however, I've noticed today when I clicked on their link in my Favorites folders, I get a "The page cannot be displayed" page. Does anyone know what happened to The Tech Guys Forum?

No, the names are similar, but their URL is in the link that I provided.

No, that's the same URL that Tommy provided. Mine is http://forums.thetechguys.com/ . They are(or were) called The Tech Guys(plural), not Tech Guy. Apparently, so far, no one who's read this thread is familiar with them.

Well, could someone at least tell me whether or not you are getting a "The page cannot be displayed" page when you click on this link? >>> http://forums.thetechguys.com/

Yeah, there's nothing there. My best guess is the server might have failed and maybe they are in the process of restoring. The reason is that you get this error page just going to the main domain itself, something you'd be likely to see near the beginning of restoring a server. It's running but the content is not there.

Hmmm. It looks like we're going to have to keep our eyes on this one and see how it all pans out.

Well, there is one way that I can find out. I'll try logging in.... Yep, that's them.(Although, actually it says on their hompage: formerly known as "The Tech Guys.") But boy, it sure would have been nice if they had TOLD SOMEONE!!! >:( ...Just kidding. ;D And thanks, flump.
