Anyone else have a problem getting to the technical board? All I get is a “403 error” screen message.

The NCRS technical forum might just be the all time worse in terms of being sloooow and difficult to use

Yes, it's down. Im sure they're working on it.

Last weekend they moved to a new server which I tested a few things for the Admins for a noticeable speed increase. Much better.

The Home page is working though. I suspect the TDB will be up later.

I flagged the errors and the problem was solved. It's fixed. Try again. You may have to clear cookies and login again.

BTW, the Admins have been dealing with AI Bots dragging the server down. I've been told thousands of them. It's been a big problem.

Ever since NCRS did their site update several months back, it has been laborious and slow to access their TDB. I just logged on and whatever they have done in the last 48 hours has helped immensely...much quicker to use, now.

Mike, Gary C. and I offered to help you last week. Did you see our replies to your post in the Help section? You didn't reply with details.

Send me a PM with your phone# and I'll walk you through it by phone later in the day.

Yes Leif, the new server is so much better. The guys have been working hard to improve things.

LOL, I was thinking the same thing last week when I was told about the AI bots. It's an enormous problem. I'm not sure how the issue will get fixed but it is eating lots of server processing cycles.

Last week my AI would not answer two questions I asked it... Told me i had a " Racial Slur" in one of them and would not respond to it... Sure hope it doesn't contact the Rap music industry...... ( actually that would be a good thing) LOL
SCARY that IT told me what IT was going to tell me... SCARY that it with held information from the human.......
LIke going to the library and being told " WHICH BOOKS" I could look at...... But then again, I am from the era of when " 1984" was required reading in HS.....

No problem for me.
BUT, even though I have been an NCRS member since 78, I RARELY go there. I just do not fit the NCRS mold.
They have attempted to make some changes for the better (and they have) but the damage is already done and LOTS of people have lost interest in Corvettes, much of caused by NCRS themselves.
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, why do you suppose the 53-62 community established SACC???
