Doesn't seem to be findng the server, no warnings or server messages. Browser evetually 'times out' and gves a "probem loading page" message. The old usual. Rolling Eyes

Surprised I'm not seeing anyone else here by now though.... Suspect

Same here. BG has been giving slow responses lately, so I wasn't sure it was really down this time.

Ah, well...

Oh, BTW - wanted to apologize to you about my part in that little... whatever, the other day. Over-the-top, should not have let it get the best of me, and so on.

Both my computer, and the website Down for Everyone or Just Me can confirm Brass Goggles appears to be down. No error to speak of, Chrome gives me "Oops, Google Chrome could not Access brassgoggles.co.uk"

I sent an email to protus so hopefully it will be back up soon.

In regards to lack of users here, this forum needs to be better advertised on BG when it is online. Perhaps you can also use the BG Twitter/Facebook to notify users of this forum's existence.

Yeah, it could probably do with some attention drawn to the 'sticky' on BG - the old regulars all knew of this place, but we have many more newer members now (and not all read the stickies...).
I'll mention that in the admin section when we get back. Speaking of which :

Site outage due to upstream firewall hardware failure. ISP is replacing, should be a short outage.

Fingers crossed....

I knew I should have plugged that cord back in when I tripped over it...

I tried earlier this morning and again a few minutes ago still unable to access the server, as you mentioned Crying or Very sad

Getting the same message. Page doesn't want to load and the internet signal just drops.

Captain Lyerly Sat Apr 12, 2014 5:32 am

Seems to be back up.

Perhaps a thread in Off Topic to publicize Spare Goggles would be in order; if it hasn't been done yet, I will see to it.

Cheers, all!

I get the same problem of "Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at brassgoggles.co.uk."

I'm getting an error message from google as well. Web page not available.
