Is it just me? The past 3-4 days, I've not been able to access the Ledge for hours at a time. Anyone else? I just find it odd that no one else has posted about it.

I thought it was my provider doing maintenance or something, cause it only happened in the evening... or all the .net sites were having problems... cause that seemed like the only sites I couldn't access.

You're not alone.

Same thing here. I wondered if it might be a server problem with my ISP, but this website was the only site I had trouble with. It started over the weekend, then both Monday & Tuesday I couldn't access the Ledge during the evening. At least now I know it's not just me.

It is getting really annoying. We apparently have an awful problem w/ hackers. It's happened in the past but this is like a daily thing now. :mad:

I wonder if these hackers would have anything to do with Amber's signature appearing everywhere on the board for some people? ;)

not only the penguin and Ledge, it's everything around it including the email pages.

This might sound naive, but what are they doing? Just locking it up for everyone else? Don't people have anything better to do with their time? (he types as he spends hours here :lol: )

Actually it's the whole worldwide web. Nothing to do with the ledge really. 404 messages everywhere.

Nope. When the Ledge is down, I'm still able to access EVERY other site I frequent. All of them. It's local, baby. :wavey:

yeah, it's our site. I think last Marty checked they were using us to send spam to Portugal or something. I am clueless about how all this stuff works; I just know it annoys the crap out of me.

I'm still getting freaky pages here and there, but I'm sure it will be fixed soon. No worries. :o


:D Thanks Marty and Liz for trying to fix the problems.

I haven't been able to get on for days.

This is the first time in ages :( I hope all is ok now.

Were you trying to go through the main/front page? We just realized yesterday that that was not working, whereas the rest of the site was fine! Hopefully all has been fixed now.

Bob Welch actually called us yesterday about the site as well, wondering what has been going on w/ it. I think anyone trying to access the main page first must have thought the site was down for longer than it actually was. :sorry:

Anyway I think by now Marty and my BIL have fixed everything....

(drooling) Bob Welch calling! That guy is SO freakin' cool. He answers questions on his own site all the time. I'm in Nashville semi regularly, and have tried to work up the guts to contact/track him down( :rolleyes: ), but have always been afraid that might freak him out. :lol: :lol: :lol: I'd love to have him sign my Welch era FM albums. Do you know the main reason I haven't? I don't know nearly as much about his solo years, as I do about FM (duh), and I'm afraid that that might be insulting to him. :shrug: Which, of course, wouldn't do.

Aahh, the ever-present fear of somehow insulting our FMac idols! Such pressure. :)

He is a cool guy. I missed his call by 1 minute as I had just come in from picking up my daughter from gymnastics. Someone on his site had asked him what was up w/ ours, so i guess he was curious too as to why there'd trouble getting in. He did mention on his site that he knew we'd done a Q&A w/ John, so maybe he checked that out. The 'coolness' of things like that never fails to amaze me.

Wow, to have him sign your Welch era albums...dare to dream. Wouldn't that be great....BTW how would he really know how much/little you know about his solo career anyway (if someday you do happen to bump into the man)? I don't think he'd grill you. :woohoo: A fan is a fan.

ARGH! I'd be mad at myself for a month!

Reading stuff from his website, he appears to have no ego at all.

I don't know. I think it might just feel odd to him that I'm not putting any solo albums in his face for him to sign. Maybe I worry too much? :laugh: I just got a Paris album though, so I'm working on that!
Lis, do you know exactly "what" he does now? Did I dream that he was doing some writing for a music magazine? I told him (wrote on his site)that I thought he should play again, at least locally. Then, I'll just plan one of my Nashvegas jaunts around his playing schedule!

Actually no, I really don't know what he's up to. I'd be curious myself. Yesterday was the 1st we'd heard from him in ages. Although we are certainly also to blame for not staying in touch....Marty has been so busy w/ work lately, it's not even funny, and he's the one that pretty much spoke to Bob in the past. I think the last I heard from them was a call from Bob's wife w/ a question about something about a year ago, and i remember I had a houseful of screaming kids and couldn't even really talk for more than a minute. I cringe even now, remembering it LOL. Such a professional establishment we run here. That's why I much prefer e-mail!! ;)
