Hello,

Due to a lost message from the ZB team (it was sent to YHG20) we were unaware that the IP address which our forum is hosted on was changing. This means that when it dropped the http://dbzf.co.uk domain stopped functioning.

This domain will stay down until Rogue can get on and update its details.

We apologise for the inconvenience this has caused and hope that you've managed to find this place through the old url. If you haven't I apologise for the time you've missed on here.

Regards,

TIm

It takes a mere second for treasure to turn to trash.

I was manually redirected when typing in www.dbzf.co.uk, I don't know about anyone else though.

Ah, so it seems that the www A name is pointing at the correct IP but not the blank one. Nonetheless it is still an issue :p

Especially as before I redirected the forum to this address everything redirected to the broken url so no one could get on ;)

The A Record has been updated but now we wait for the DNS to update, once this has done, the domain should change.

Yeah I noticed it was down for sometime thought something crashed. It's also happening in most zetaboard forums around. Good thing the redirect as there wouldn't be any other way to find out.

I didn't even know this place had an old URL, and I wasn't being redirected from the current one.

The old URL was the ZBs default one. You weren't being redirected from http://dbzf.co.uk as that one was down.

If you were going to http://www.dbzf.co.uk that one would have worked in redirecting you as it works via a CNAME rather than a A NAME.

Hope that helps explain it :)
