• BBSDay.org down?

    From Adept@21:2/108 to warmfuzzy on Sat Oct 21 21:30:48 2023
    Anyone have any info on bbsday.org? Seems to be a parking page, now, rather than info about BBS Day.

    archive.org still has useful stuff in its history, though, so it's at least not lost.

    (And To: warmfuzzy because I see that alias on the page. I don't know if warmfuzzy is currently on FSXnet.)

    I chat with him often on MRC. I'll let him know. He was just talking about BBSDAY.ORG so I wonder if he even knows if it down.

    Cool, thanks.

    I came across it because of sorting through the giant mass of tabs I have open in Firefox that I mostly ignore. And then the site didn't work, though seemed more like a not-renewed-domain issue.

    But I didn't really think about it, beyond just that it wasn't working.

    Fingers crossed that it's back up before too long.

    I guess he forgot to renew his domain name. But he caught it in time. So it's back up now.

    Nice! Excellent news, though sad that he probably had to pay a bit extra. But I was certainly worried that some squatter got the domain.
