I know, I know but... is it just me?

Postby WheresMyWhite » Thu Nov 24, 2016 6:37 pm

I know we really aren't supposed to talk about TOB here but...

Today when I try to go to the index page via bookmark in both Safari and Chrome, I am getting a warning about the site about deception being possible if I use the site... :shock:

It is just me or have they been hacked or ??

If you go to the CotH home page and then use the forum link, there is a message that the forums are down temporarily. Not sure if they're hacked, or if it's just maintenance, but it looks like they're taking care of it.
Keep calm and canter on.

If you click on the details link it will take you to TOB but I noticed just now that when I did that, it said page not found. Hrm!

I don't care at all if you talk about COTH over here.

Thanks Chancellor :)

I hate to step on toes and not trying to make your life any more challenging than it already is...

Thinking of you often!

FWIW, I think it tanked late Thanksgiving eve so not surprised it it taking a while. IMO, I suspect most of the COTH staff got a 4-day holiday and I personally wouldn't consider this outage as business critical other than to ensure the remainder of COTH's systems are "safe" :)

Yeah, it's been down since Wednesday. And WMW, you're probably right that they had a long weekend!

I did a google search for "chronofhorse best cooler" today and when i clicked on one of the threads that came up (through google search, not through chronofhorseforums), it brought me to a malware site. Clicked back, clicked the link again and it went to chronofhorse.

Something is still screwy.

I had the same thing happen to me as Snork a little while back. I figured it was still having issues as that point but if it's still happening then it is probably best to be careful with Google searches leading there.
