Weird shit with this site

Postby ROB » Sun Nov 12, 2023 3:33 am

Am I the only one who didn't get onto the site for some reason? Even the search engine results direct me to a 404.

Somebody doing weird things with the htaccess or something?

I will compare your ip block with banned IPs.

A few years ago Oz got a bunch of dirty Chinese IP addies and that might be the issue.

I'd whore myself out just one more time if I knew who to screw to get out of this grind.

Is it still happening?

I checked the IP addies and for some really, really dumb-ass reason I cannot "unblock" any banned ones.

Not sure why. I used to be able to do it.

But, I also could not find any ROB or ROB-like IP addies that were banned anyway.

Han't happened again. Might have been weird browser cache issue or something.

Also, fuck Chrome.

Mozilla was awesome until it wasn't.
Firefox! Wow! Faster than Mozilla! Then it bloated.
Thank God for chrome. Google will never make a shitty product.

Ok got a travel phone and for about to two hours it was redirecting this site to go to the main CBA site.

Anyone else get this or is it just my phone being weird?
