Title: GW not working for me


The Wright Way - June 1, 2008 06:25 PM (GMT)
Well, I'm accessing GW through a proxy right now and fcuk slow! None of the z13.invisionfree.com URLs are opening for me. goonersweb.co.uk opens though but since all the links on the main page are invisionfree links I cant access any of the individual sections.
Mods can you help?

Marc Overmars - June 1, 2008 06:26 PM (GMT)
Another Invision site I use was down all day as well...until now.

GW has been fine though.

The Wright Way - June 1, 2008 06:29 PM (GMT)
Thanks, hopefully its something temporary. :good:

KaiserKolo - June 1, 2008 06:35 PM (GMT)
Yep, it's not being very responsive...

Professor Zim - June 1, 2008 07:40 PM (GMT)
Same for me, the Goonersweb.co.uk address works but as soon as I try to reply to anything it switches to Invision. It's bloody annoying :censored:

McNamara That Ghost... - June 1, 2008 09:47 PM (GMT)
Yup, same for me right now. It's hard finding a decent proxy server too, this one is pretty rubbish. Maybe we need to do some research for our prospective move, this is very, very annoying.

Whats happening about the move and changes that Letters mentioned a couple of weeks ago? Have they been done or is it all in the long long pipe line?

TheCrazy58 - June 2, 2008 05:18 AM (GMT)
I couldn't get on all day yesterday, and also couldn't get onto the European Board for the best part of the day either. Both fine now.

GW hasn't worked for me for ages now :coffee:

Letters (TPFKA WWTL@WHL) - June 2, 2008 07:57 AM (GMT)
I've not had any problems. This is all a bit odd because obviously quite a few people have. TEG mentioned something about a fire at a server farm so maybe Invision are having bother. It's not affected me so far.

Not sure what we can do really. goonersweb.co.uk only redirects to Invision.
I could try changing the floating menu to link to goonersweb.co.uk see if that helps.

Flava Flav - June 2, 2008 08:14 AM (GMT)
Main page is VERY RED again

McNamara That Ghost... - June 2, 2008 08:15 AM (GMT)
It's worth a try, I can still only get on via a proxy, which isn't really the best thing for a mod. :lol:

Also, RK, well we still have to weigh up whether it'll be worth it and obviously we haven't done that yet.

:whistle:

Change the setting again then. I've posted about this in general chat. It's because I changed the menu settings.

The Wright Way - June 2, 2008 08:17 AM (GMT)
I can access the individual sections now but none of the posts as they are all invisionboard links. Thanks anyway, guess i'll have to use a proxy till invision sort this out.

Just checked on the Invision support boards. There is a problem at Invision.
I've put a note about it at the top of the page. There's not much we can do, hopefully they'll sort it soon.

PGFC - June 2, 2008 08:30 AM (GMT)
You should demand a refund letters :coffee:

More of a long term thing.

If gw wasn't working for you how the hell would you be able to post? :blink:

The Wright Way - June 2, 2008 04:50 PM (GMT)

TheCrazy58 - June 2, 2008 08:44 PM (GMT)
I tried going through Google yesterday but that didn't work either.

Interesting website name.

:sarcy:

F**king thing just shorted out.. having to use a proxy. <_<

The Emirates Gallastico - June 4, 2008 05:42 PM (GMT)
Umm... why'd you link to admin access? You realise with that link anyone can go in and do anything? :unsure:

Because I'm an idiot, apparently.

<_<

I was trying to link to the thread on the InvisionFree boards where they were explaining the ongoing DNS problems.


I Fail. :(

:getcoat:



Although....if you clicked that link did it really let you in to the Admin CP and not ask you for a password or anything?!

Ahem...anyway. What I meant to say was:

I'd love to but can't, for some reason the in-house ISP has always tolerated the GW site, but I can't seem to get here by any other route, they are as quickly blocked as used :unsure:

Anyway I didn't miss much did I :coffee:

Couldn't get on for the last 48 hours. <_<

Did you not try a proxy?

Or, like me, did you use one and it wouldn't let you log in?

What's a proxy?

Does that answer your question? ;)

No seriously, I changed it and it STILL wouldn't let me view the z13 Address

Try that one if it happens again - worked well for me.
