i dont know if this is just me but everytime i click on the forum link on the main site it says 404 not found and i have found the actual forum but even the emails i get sent have links 2 the wrong site. i was wondering if that was your old site and u havnt changed the links or if theres just a glitch in the site?

When i tried logging onto my account at my girlfriends house i had that exact same problem everytime i tried getting on the forums it just said this page cannot be found.

In the end i managed to get on by typing http://www.rsbandb.com/forums but the moment i clicked a forum branch or tried to log in..it couldn't find the page.

I meant to meantion this to Mike or Shane but it slipped my mind at the time. No idea whats caused it.

If you are experiencing this problem, it is most likely a DNS problem. It might have to do with your router or something about handling DNS, not too sure.

You should be using http://www.forums.rsbandb.com instead of the http://www.rsbandb.com/forumsl. :wink:

usually when it does that rsbandb is down, even though it shouldnt be lately. There was a time we had lots of problems and the forums would keep going down.. It just randomly happens for me, sometimes ill be browsing fine then all of a sudden it cant find pages, then lag like hell, take 10mins to load the reply page.. so yeah the connection sometimes is iffy between our pc and the server rsbandb is on

Thats, weird, I never have any problems accessing the site. Maybe the dns servers in your area are having troubles?

This happened to me when I was on holiday and was using a really old computer. I figured out it was putting the ending of the url at the beginning and therefore creating a non-existant url. By typing it as its meant to be I managed to fix it but it got annoying having to do that for everytime I clicked something. I dont know what this is but it doesnt do it on my own computer.

That's my problem. If I follow a link to http://www.forums.rsbandb.com I can't find the page. If I follow http://www.rsbandb.com/forums then he finds the page.

The same with http://www.shane.rsbandb.com actually. It can't find that site but it can find http://www.rsbandb.com/shane

Happens to me every now and then. I just wait it out and it gets back to normal after a while.

Heh. Well my girlfriend has NEVER been able to access the forums. The site works fine but the moment she trys the forums..just says this page cannot be found.

Seems shes not hte only one getting it. o.0

Always has worked fine for me though.

But as the others have said it's just the forums.rsbandb.com that wont work. If i put in http://www.rsbandb.com/forums it works fine for her but the moment you try logging in it swaps back to forums.rsbandb.com.

Well, clearing your cookies would probably help, but then you lose all of your stored passwords...
