I am not sure why, but BF will do that on occasion. Sometimes it is down everywhere and sometimes if I turn on my VPN and chose a new location it works. Weird.

I know I'm late ( 11:45 CDT, USA) but I just pulled it up and even logged in with no problem at all. But in the past two years I've seen Bladeforums go down for almost an entire day a couple of times in the past year or so. Hopefully they'll get their problems ironed out.

I also realize that some people have had trouble at Bladeforums with trolls and other problems. It's unfortunate that there are people out there like that. But hopefully they will get rid of the jerks in due time. I've been on Bladeforums for about as long as I've been here and I still find the place a valuable source of good information. But Spyderville is the best as far as I'm concerned :cool:

Been acting weird for the past year or so since they went with a new host.

It’s working fine for me. Although I have noticed that sometimes when I go onto BF, it takes forever to load. When that happens, I just switch to another website. Not that I go on there very often anymore.

I joined BF since nearly the beginning of it, in late ‘98 (though I think it says I joined in ‘99). But I rarely go on there anymore. It’s not because of trolls or anything like that, because I haven’t had many direct dealings with trolls there at all. For the most part, I’m just not that interested anymore. I last posted there to a thread on the Traditional Knives Forum.
