[StandbackStevie]

Does anyone know why the nicksfix site is down ? was curious maybe there changing the site up a bit

[kathy1]

i don't know i just tried to get on there also. it would be nice if they changed it alittle.

[galestreet]

I hope that they are changing things around, Can't wait to see if it's a new Nicksfix or not.

You can still get to the Nicks Fix by going to rockalittle.com - so I'm guessing nothing too exciting is happening lol

Bill Gamelson says that the Nicks Fix is down for good, & that Fleetwood Mac is wildly out of control & bleeding money & is shortly to quit the business.

I think it's about time the Nicks Fix went down for good.

I wonder what kind of jobs they'll get on the outside. Michele

I know you don't mean that. I mean, where will you go for your Stevie license plate sightings if the Nicks Fix went down?

Maybe he's finally managed to Convert her and it's being changed over to an Evangelical site - get ready guys, get down on your knees and start payin!


Really though, I personally suspect that this is just a server problem. The error message says,

"Proxy Error
The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server."

To me that says that it's just some sort of problem with the Internet itself. I heard a few days ago that a few sites were having troubles.
(Nicksfix's problem started later than that, though - but still...)

P.S. - Perhaps we could take a SURVEY here on The Ledge and get people's opinions about Gamelson's accuracy in this matter - -
We'll see what it SAYS!

I would not expect a new updated site. Just think it is a technical issue regarding servers.
I got a 502 proxy error when trying to access the nicksfix.com URL.
Got this from a site explaining the error message.

Use of proxies and caching is increasing on the Web. Our CheckUpDown robot will always try to 'drill through' to the real computer that actually hosts your Web site, but we do not have complete control over where our HTTP request actually ends up. If only one link in the chain of computers dealing with our HTTP request is broken, then an error such as 502 can easily occur.

Think it also has to do with HTTP protocol and URL addresses, which would explain why www.rockalittle.com still works. Just my guess, by surfing the error message that I got.

I think you're absolutely right. The only litte "kink" in that for me, personally, is that rockalittle.com is so old that I could picture Kinney completely forgetting about it. But just the same, I think the "most likely explanation" is definitely that it's a server problem. Don't forget there's many "links in the chain" - - - there's usually not just one server involved, but several, or so I've heard. I would imagine some server computer had a huge blowup or something. Just picture some college intern in front of an open machine with pieces and parts all over the floor, calling his mom at 11 p.m. and saying "I don't think I can DO this!!! "

People still go to Nicksfix.com? I figure why bother. Stevie has stated in a million interviews that she hates the internet. So, my thought is that she will never take an interest in her own website and developing it into something engaging (or even revenue-generating).
