Hi dear mr. Admin, Man in Charge, Man Upstairs, General CEO Of The SS Net Plaza Discussion Thingy -

the board is inaccessible ever day for about 6 hours at least (my guess) during the Dutch mornings. Why is that? Does another board occupy its server space during half of the day? I can see why it starts over here at around 3 PM, because that is the time that Americans live at 9 AM (NYC) or 6 AM (Ca.). Or am I wrong in all aspects and is there a simpler explanation?

I'm just curious, that is all.

Hmm that's strange. I've been checking several times this morning (local Dutch time) and I didn't have any problems accessing this board at all.

Rule of thumb, think BEFORE you post. And THINK how it may affect someone else's feelings.

Check out the Beach Boys Starline website, the place for pictures of many countries Beach Boys releases on 45.

Right behind you I see the millions; On you I see the glory; From you I get opinions; From you I get the story

It's a crappy server. We have no control over it. And God knows everyone else goes on every other board to bitch about it later on. Smiley

Odd... never had any problem at any time. OK, sometimes it says 'server unavailable' or the like, but a quick refresh soon fixes that.  Grin

I come across it several times a week, ranging from a few minutes to a few hours. Figured it comes with the territory. As long as the board isn't charging members dues, it's not going to draw a complaint from me.

That's been happening to me too. Sometimes a quick "refresh" fixes it like AGD said, and sometimes it lasts for hours. Once, it lasted almost two days(for me, at least).

happened to me for a long period of time, it depends on a few factors, if some people are able to see it after a refresh, and some cant...that most likely means theres a connection between you and the server thats not up, etc

Thanks to all. I am already happy to know that I am not alone. I agree with Luther: we are guests here for free,  and that is more than enough to feel welcome even with the 'outages'. My only question remaining is that the situation seemingly is different for various regions or persons.

You are definitely not alone. It happens to me several times a week. Oddly it seems to happen mostly at home. Accessing this site at work is usually not a problem.
