BKForum.com AKA BankruptcyForum.com
 

Hello Everyone:

I am a moderator of the above-named forum, and have been since 2009. This past Friday, October 7, this forum went down about 08:00 and has not been up since. None of us have heard anything from the Administrator, nor anyone else for that matter.

The username of the owner/Administrator is Laz, (or Lazar when I joined in 2008. He later shortened it). This forum uses the vBulletin software and has been in existence since 2005. In September 2010, the forum went down, and Laz upgraded to the version 4 package, but am not sure which package it is. In a few days the forum was back up and running and had been running fine until October 7.

Does anyone know anything about what may have happened? This forum is very popular because of all the people needing to file bankruptcy in this economy, and has probably near to one thousand active members, plus many more guest viewers.

Thank you,
AC

PS: AngelinaCat is my username on that forum.

Unfortunately, the only person who can really tell what is going on is the site owner. I just get told "The server at bankruptcyforum.com is taking too long to respond." when trying to access the site. And, doing a trace just gives me a timeout. So, I'd say this is a server issue and most likely the only person who may contact the host and ask what is up is the person paying the server bills.

Thank you Lynne.

Actually, I am trying to put my BKF username out anywhere that the owner/Admin of the site might see it and realize that something is wrong. He travels a lot, and has left the site alone for months at a time. It is causing a real hardship for the folks needing this service.

My DH and I are working on securing an interim site and will be purchasing the software to go with it.

Love your avatar, btw.

Thanks,
AC
