.com down?

[ElmarkOFear]

I am getting an ez-board error message saying the page cannot be found. I am using the link from the main page of the .com site. Anybody else having this problem?

[pevergreen]

I cant even find the forums....

Yes the forums are down, maybe they decided to finally get rid of the worst forums software on this planet (ezboard)

No great loss.

I expect it will be back.

"A bad penny always turns up."

It would be a big loss if CA had closed it for good, because all of their resident trolls and spammers will be moving to here and TW Center. Think about it like that.

I have been noticing a wave of negativity flowing through their forums ever since the release. Even some quite innocent post about reasonable questions about the game are getting topic closed.

Though I understand people's frustration, and telling them they have no right to complain just exacerbate the situation when they have laid 50 plus dollars on a game.

It will be interesting to see if they don't wipe the forum clean and start a new controlled forum.

I think they will be back, but they are up to something because it isn't an Ez-Board type error for maintenance.

maybe they are planning a nuclear strike.

but id really hate to say it but maybe they outa shut the sega server down to for a day so they can fix some issues on it. i would be frustrated for it being shut down but there are some major problems they need to fix with the server.

Some of the mods and admins over there are, shall we say, a bit heavy handed. The attitude is kind of "stay, don't complain, don't question the policy or get out".

Though I understand people's frustration, and telling them they have no right to complain just exacerbate the situation when they have laid 50 plus dollars on a game.

The problem is, that it's not CA doing this, well for the most part it's the non CA forum staff, and one CA representitive in particular, that perpetuate the hostility and negativity. Their whole attitude is kind of like, you're one of the 10 years and above target consumerbase, and you're very lucky to be a member at all. And if you don't stop criticising the game, you'll land yourself a "three day ban" " young man".

It will be interesting to see if they don't wipe the forum clean and start a new controlled forum.

Doubt it. It's probably been taken offline for a while. Who knows though. If they are moving to another forums software it's going to take ages for them to be up and running again. All of the restrictions and security fixes will take ages.

I think they will be back, but they are up to something because it isn't an Ez-Board type error for maintenance.

Who knows and who cares. As I've said, so long as their "waste" don't make it in here we'll be ok.

Never like ezboard forums. They discriminate Poles there :)

Gah Has it been almost 7 years I have been with this series of games?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Yes I was there in the beginning when they opened it, (knees start to buckle), and I was also here at the .org when they opened it, (Bones start to ache), I have had my run-ins with the .com admins. I remember starting a thread about MTW login, which was so bad, and had so many stupid sound effect, it drove you nuts! That was the first and only time I complained about any TW game, and it was the last.

I did get banned once (I'm so proud), for sticking up for the TW center, in that incident that we are not suppose to talk about (oops I said it again)(slips secrete files back into safe).

For those of you that have not been around a long time in TW, some of those admins are daddy's boys that are employed by CA (sinks deeper into trouble)(cat escapes from bag).
