A week or so ago, I saw that AACA Forum was supposed to be down for maintenance or upgrade June 1-7, but it was still up and running last weekend. This weekend, it not only seems to be completely inaccessible, but any links that turn up in search engines come up as dead ends.

Yet, even before this latest upgrade, I noticed that the Misc Chat section seems to be gone. What's up with that?

After all the mess they caused over the past year, what with too many changes and too much moderation in the Packard Forum (especially deleting too many posts), I can say that I don't feel too sorry if they're having trouble. Yet, I wouldn't be surprised if some sort of further "sanitizing" was involved.

Beats me, I don't go there anymore. I've found that there's nothing that interests me over there. I actually don't miss the place at all, just the Packard members that aren't here.

Has anyone tried to access the AACA forum thru a DIFFERENT computer never before used for AACA access??????
I'm wondering if maybe the AACA is sending a decoy screen to circumvent the M5 based on IP address ????

Forum appears operational although he says there is more work to be done. I had to delete the old bookmark, come in thru the main forum page, reselect Packard and log back in. Seems to work as of 3PM PDT.

Eric: I know why the AACA forum was down for such along period of time. Maybe Peter Gariepy purchased too much product from Mr.Beer and then drank too much of it, then deciced it was time to go to a new server while under influence. Then PJH decided to help after having a few to many, and he then deleted every thing.

I think it is pretty sad when Peter Gariepy the so-clled web mechanic for the AACA, uses a non profit forum to try and put money in own pocket.
