Problems with the site? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

DDustiNN · 03-18-2009, 06:17 AM

Am I the only one that has been having problems with the forums? All day yesterday, every time I tried to come on here I got the following message:

Quote:

Sorry for the board being down, we are upgrading a few files and we should be back in less than 10 minutes. M

I was able to get on once, and I looked back through all of the post times... it looked like people had been posting all day...?

This happened at work, and at home, so I know it's not my computer...

And I also don't see any mention of it by anyone else... unless I'm just overlooking it...

Anyone?

You're not the only one. I saw the message that the site is being worked on and it would take 10 minutes. It was offline far longer than 10 minutes..lol.. They must be working on something big for the site, or simply having virus problems or hardware problems..

I have not had any issues with this site, either at work or at home. One thing I did notice however is that the camaro builder on the new site http://www.chevrolet.com/allnewcamaro/# shows the midnight silver wheels finish as much darker than they actually are. Did anyone else notice that and agree with me?

it was weird it only happened to me at work yesterday. As long as I was home it was fun. Once I get into work today im going clear my internet history and see if that doesnt help things.

I heard through the grapevine that some server updating was being done to the site and the changes might take some time to proliferate to all ISPs.

Oh ok, makes sense now. Man, that was the longest "10 minutes" of my life... haha... I knew I was addicted to this site for quite some time, but when I couldn't see anything all day... it was weird, I just didn't know what to do with myself, lol...

Thanks for the feedback. I knew that to be true because I have seen several pictures of the wheels at this point and also seen them in person, but it is still nice to have confirmation that you are correct.
