Is Corvair Forum having issues. I get a server error most of the time. I assume it is not on my end?

Maybe the best way to avoid problems logging on, is to STAY on constantly.

Many forums using vBulletin software have been getting hacked recently. Not sure if that is the case with CF.

I just went back and attempted to see recent activity. This is what I got.

I talked to the owner of the site Scott Howe yesterday and he told me its is being upgraded to stop spammers. I would say that is the most reliable info.

Watching this... we can be glad we have professionals running our Forum! I can only imagine what Scott is going thru... he works a job, has a family and his "stepchild"

Royce and his employees do this for a living...

We are working on it. The servers appear to be getting overloaded. We have upgraded the security and are looking into it from the server side as well. I have people on it.

Thanks for being patent.

I am thinking a bunch of us might be having "Withdrawal" symptoms.
On the plus side, I am confident that you and your people will succeed and get things back up an running better than ever.
I, myself would rather wait until it is right than have the site up with problems.

Thank You for the update, it is appreciated.
