Has anyone else had trouble getting there? I haven't been able to get there for more than 2 days now. My browsers all time out before connecting to it.

Did you say anything negative about the 63-64 judging thing? LOL

No. On pain of death or exile.

Thanks. I checked my filters and they're okay.
Website seems to be offline because there's nothing but timeout.

Joe-
It's working for me.
I think I would know if you were banned.
So far, your access is still approved by the company.
Normally when someone suddenly can't access, that means that the program blocked you for some kind of perceived hack.
I will forward an email from you to IT team to restore you.
He will need your Browser and IS address.
I sent you an email.

Thanks Don. None of my three browsers can "connect" to either NCRS website........Forum or Informational. All three timeout and fail to connect. I checked my blocked sites and find nothing. Maybe I have to look deeper since the problem seems to be on my end.
Thanks, and Happy New Year!

Send a email or call the administrator John Waggoner. NCRS@NCRS.org or 317-736-4263.

I have had similar issues in the past for simple mistakes or network quirks and John fixed them up quickly.

Joe, I had the same problem a year or more ago. Turned out I was "blocked" for some reason.

I contacted John Waggoner and Gary Chestnut.

John got back to me and "fixed me up". I'm not a computer server techie, but through some glitch, I was marked as a "robot" or "hacker".

Been OK since. I sent the same message to Keith earlier this week.

Not sure if he's fixed up yet.

You must ask on an individual basis.
If you ask John for an explanation of what happens (fairly common), he will give it to you.
He restored me PRONTO!

I've been on there today discussing an ebay split window - no issues...

I would virus/spyware scan my system before seeking web master help...sometimes you get surprised at what is lurking about under your fingertips...

Sure. I did that bud. Not like I was born yesterday. Also checked firewalls, AD-Block Plus and ISP for blocked websites.

What happened to me happens fairly routinely to all members, for various reasons, some of which are unknown to those users.

Two of multiple possible causes are repeated failed login attempts and repeated failed photo upload attempts which cause a triggered block of the individual's IP addresses.

The comment was a general one, not directed at you..specifically.

I've had threads closed on the NCRS site (vis a vis '63 judging) but never been blocked -- 10 year member..
