Not for me, but it could just take a while for DNS to propagate.

It's down again. Probably a server having hiccups.

Almost certainly a DNS thing if it's up for some and not others. If someone who can get to it can ping it and get the IP address and post it here we should be able to get to it. Usually takes 24 hours or so for DNS changes to go to everyone.

Still down for me btw...

Anybody know what happened to the bmcuser.com forum? The Site is no longer accessible.

Looks like someone let the domain name expire. The site is actually still working for some (me included), but it most likely is being purged from DNS servers as we speak. Most likely will be back pretty quickly, I imagine.

Domain Name: BMCUSER.COM
Registry Domain ID: 1714656690_DOMAIN_COM-VRSN
Registrar WHOIS Server: whois.enom.com

Glad to see its not just me at least. Tried to access on a flight and thought for sure it was being blocked. Just got back to LA and my iPad, phone and computer get the same default page.

Someone forgot to pay the renewal of the domain. Did anyone tell Jared?

It's back up and working. At least for me. Empty your cache if anything.

Looks like a real site to me - just not a Landmine Media commercial venture.

Not what I meant. It's the same base as this forum.

Not really a "layout" so much as it is the default skin for phpBB...which is much nicer than BMCuser's ugly gray and gold. I get trying to match the BMD logo colors, but c'mon! Just do it in the header. Human eyes see white background/black text much easier. Maybe it's cuz I'm getting old and cranky. I'm definitely cranky. And definitely getting old. Damn kids with their MySpaces....
