what the heck just happened? was i the only one who suddenly couldn't get access to Creditnet? i don't think so, since the last post was a hour and a half ago? humblemarc
Re: what the heck just happened? There were several sites I couldn't access during that time. Network problems?
Re: what the heck just happened? odd, i could access all the other ones i tried. i always get suspicious (read govt. interference) when websites like these go down. Who knows what jewels of wisdom were being posted when it went down? humblemarc
Re: what the heck just happened? It wasn't just you -- I had just posted something last night and when I tried to go back to the board, I couldn't get in. I tried off and on for a while and never could get back. Kept getting "This site can't be displayed." As paranoid as I am, I immediately thought some troll hacker did something to bring the site down. I sure was glad to see all of you this morning
Re: what the heck just happened? In my experience, the FTC does monitor these boards, but they're not watching us, they're watching them. Several people have sent me email messages, with expanded headers, wanting to know if the emails really came from the FTC. They did. The FTC was requesting further information re whatever it was the person had posted. The CA in question was under investigation, and the FTC was gathering evidence against them.
Re: what the heck just happened? Our site was unavailable in the early morning hours for approximately one hour due to a problem with the server logs which I was able to resolve. Apart from that I am not aware of any other issues with the server today. Sincerely, pbm
