Sorry to start another thread about vaguntrader.com but is anyone else having trouble accessing the site? It was fine last night when I went to bed but now I can only get to the intro picture but can't get past that to the forum. Anyone know what's going?

Yeah, looks like they're having more issues. I just tried it after reading your post, so it looks like it's probably them, and not your computer.

I can't even get that now. Another member said it was fine until 10:30 last night. I'm trying to finish a deal on 30-06 ammo before Saturday.

I'm glad you posted that VAGT is down, wasn't sure if it was just my computer or what. Anyone know if it's that hacker douche from last month again?
Also, any of you guys the fella selling that S&W m317? I told a coworker about it and she wants to know if you'll be at the Chantilly gunshow this weekend.

Host Server appears to be down, not sure whats going on. I like many of you are waiting for it to come back up!

I'm still having trouble. I can't access the website, but I have recently gotten "watched topic" updates. I guess the site is working off/on for some.

I'm not having any trouble for the past 15 mins or so. Try loading the page again then hitting CTRL and F5 at the same time. Should do a complete refresh of the page. Your browser might be loading the page from its cache and doing that refresh will reload everything. If that doesn't work clear all your history and cache.

The internet provides us with a ridiculous amount of convenience. So, we should accept the few inevitable inconveniences with grace and patience. We should also let those inconveniences serve to remind us that full reliance on technology is probably not wise.

It is times like this that it pays to have multiple ISPs with multihoming so if even one of your ISPs goes down, your customers can still reach your site.
