I thought I'd post this in the recording section since the gearslutz forum is mostly for recording.
I tried to access it this morning (tried two different browsers) and I get a porno site that says it's "www.gearslutz.com".

I'm betting they forgot to renew their DNS. _________________ Anapeg S11 --> Telonics FP100 --> Hardwire RV7/DL8 --> Little Walter Tube Amp (50 watt) --> Telonics cab + Eminence EPS-15C |

There was a mess up with DNS to be sure, according to site owner Jules.
That aside, I haven't been there in years, and my IQ thanks me for it _________________ 67 Shobud Blue Darling III, scads of pedals and such, more 6 strings than I got room for

I checked this morning and it's OK now. It had to propagate to all DNS servers. For some it was OK late yesterday.
I don't see anymore "misinformation" on the gearslutz than any other forum, including this one. |
