• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Has Avsim been hacked?

The title says it all. Went to the book mark I usually use and this is what I get.

Went to my browser and used several different links from browser results and still get this.

Anyone else getting this?
 
I have an email in to the AVSIM Tech to see what is going on! It may be sever maintenance or maybe a power failure to the building where the server is.
 
Up in the corner is a button to "renew now." Maybe they forgot to pay their bill.
 
I just deleted all of my Avsim cookies, tried to reach the library and the main site, no joy on either.
 
The library is available right now, but the main site still down... I'm guessing there are some technical issues going on with the server.
 
It's completely up. Those who can't log in might want to consider emptying the cache of their browsers

Found interesting discussion about avsim not up for others - wonder if their hosting is down.

I just got in - main and library. Pull up a Command Prompt window and type ipconfig /flushdns​. That should let you back in.
