Am I the only one who can't get it to open?

Same here, it has been down for several hours….
Thanks. Had to make sure it wasn't me.
Yes, been that way most of the day. There is a couple new Mod tools that have been added(not visible to general membership), and apparently site maintenance. Rather this is being done by the host or our HQ is unknown as neither has communicated. Slowly pages seem to be responsive again. Sorry I don't have more info or a time frame.
Whew, I'm glad it's not me. Thanks
As Joe said it has been happening all afternoon, I just checked still getting timed out on the GD forum, Hang in there folks staff is doing all we can.
I just posted the above to see if I could, Joe is on this and it is the best we can do for now. Please be patient with us all.
Same here. Hoped I was not alone.
Overloaded maybe.
Too many cartoons
THIS THREAD SHOULD BE IN GENERAL DISCUSSIONS
(maybe they are working to bring back Green)
Tip;
Clicking on the 'Recent Discussions' in the header at top of each page will bring up a list of all recent threads no matter which sub forum it is posted in. That will ensure you don't miss anything.
Good idea, Joe.
You can see the threads from the 'Recent Discussions' tab, but you still can't open them. Spicolli remains a mystery…
Correct, but should someone post in any other forum you can view/reply.
Spicolli was created on main category pageas new discussion, with GD forum selected. As you see it did post there but will not open.
Should I apply for a refund at this time?
Hope it gets fixed quickly. I know you guys are working hard on it.
Seems okay now. Then again I just hit "Recent Discussion".
Looks like they're slow to open.
Issue is still happening everyone at about 7:30 am central…
This thread should get moved to General discussion.
(Obviously I’m joking).
You're late. See my comment above.
Brilliant!
You're late also.
Story of my life!
😆 LOL
still cant open ?
Nope
If only we had Linux. Don
What's a kid from the funny papers got to do with it?
While i can appreciates the humor in this, the chances are very good that the forums are running on some sort of Linux since they are built upon cloud based, open source software which most often is based on the Linux kernel and I am also sure that it is being caused by the "server side" software so any of us using a Linux "client side" would still be out of luck…😂
Any word on when there will be a fix?
It's in the hands of our host and our HQ, both we have not heard from. Sorry
since this is politics can we assume they are democrats????????
LOL, it would seem so. Bless their heart
They sure aren't as fast as Capt' Fun's propeller heads were, are they? He would've been down there gettin' 'em spun up but good!
Why can't any of the Administrators pick up the phone and call GB'er & politely ask what's up ?…..If you don't know the number it's easy to get, it's public information 😉

@Kevin_L well ya maybe, although I fit more the definition of a geek… maybe a nerdy geek while I picture you as more of a geeky dork! 🤣
Hard for me to believe that it would take a week for the Powers That Be to restore our forum. Our forum doesn't make GB any money. I think our forum is gone.
Goodbye, HighTechRedneck
Goodbye, DennisNielsen and Little Buck. It has been nice.

Right allen griggs, the forum doesn't directly make money for GB Inc. It does promote firearm interest and that can often lead to folks looking (and buying) from the auction side. It did for me decades ago. Many, if not most, of those 70 or so firearms Kasey sold for me when I sold a portion of my collection came from purchases on the auction side.
We need him back in the saddle and then promote him to Major 😊, he wouldn't put up with this crap for days on end. The military teaches one to make a decision right or wrong, if it turns out to be wrong we'll deal with it later but someone needs to make a decision. He was a decision maker for sure.

I'd just say that we all should just clam down and think of this week of adjustment as Forum Category Appreciation Week! 🙂
Besides, General Discussion gets a bit too much glory for being so……..so general. 😁
