Hey all
Sorry for the downtime.

The update to the software melted things down. Unfortunately when you click start there is no stopping until it's done and no way to know if there will be an issue.

Long story short all is great now, the update fixed many things. The homepage will be up soon, just a small glitch with that.

For the future we have someone that watches and backs up hour by hour the site. So there are 2 backups so we are very very secure.

Good job.

Don't ever do it again.

MDS withdrawal isn't very nice.

I can't get it on my PC, the IP address for mdshooters.com resolves to congregatedmedia.com.

I am able to access via tapralk on iPhone.

Still can't access through google / chrome. Ended up searching on Duck Duck Go and clicking on the link to get in. Just an FYI.

I noticed there is a bug.

If I enter

http://mdshooters.com

I get a login page although I have the credential saved.

If I enter

http://www.mdshooters.com

I see the site as already logged in.

Same thing happened at a different vbulletin site I frequent and the admin fixed it somehow.

I get the same thing.

Also, I have that dorky blue vBulletin logo on my tabs and my bookmark, instead of the comforting MDSF. Is that how it's going to be from now on?

The backdoor http://199.91.126.234/search.php?searchid=18716432 still gives me the MDSF logo.

Figured it was attributed to the change over. No worries.

I keep getting bounced as well. Pretty short time out period. If there is a reason no problem.
