Mannie Posted June 10, 2006 Posted June 10, 2006 Hi anybody. I'm trying to get to SimHQ forums and the site doesn't load. Was it under attack in the last few hours? Quote
eddie01 Posted June 10, 2006 Posted June 10, 2006 Can't get in either, but have no idea as to why. It seems like when summer comes, hackers go to work. Even the space flight sim forums I visit, have been under attack from some spammers, and are down for a bit. These clowns have got to get a life! Quote
+Tailspin Posted June 10, 2006 Posted June 10, 2006 I can't get in either. Happened within the last hour or two. Hmmmmm..... Quote
+Dave Posted June 10, 2006 Posted June 10, 2006 No I am not, but after all the BS about me being a mean guy to everyone I might get accused of it... Quote
+Tailspin Posted June 10, 2006 Posted June 10, 2006 No I am not, but after all the BS about me being a mean guy to everyone I might get accused of it... Mean guy? Nahh...sometimes its just better to count ten....or twenty before hitting the send button. But of course, do as I say, not as I do? There's another guy that posted on that same thread that I've about had enough of myself but I ain't nobody to say anything. Quote
+Spectre_USA Posted June 10, 2006 Posted June 10, 2006 Friggin' spyware all over and hackers with a bug up their butt. What is our interweb coming to? I hope all the little goombahs get Al-Zarqwi'd, soon... Quote

There's another guy that posted on that same thread that I've about had enough of myself but I ain't nobody to say anything. RANT ON The thing is I shouldnt have to count to 20, its my right to say hey, look at the next page and there is your answer. I am not about to start policing what I say. If that guys is bugging you, then tell him. WTF are you afraid of, getting banned? Screw that, as someone told me, if the shoes fits. After yesterday I am done being Mr Nice Guy. I have done more than my share of helping the community and how dare anyone call me out on that. It isnt brain surgery, just take a minute to flip through a couple pages of the forum to see whats. going on. Is it that freakin's hard? My god the posts were on top of the second page. It took longer to type the post than to go to the 2nd page. RANT OFF God I feel better. Quote
Mannie Posted June 10, 2006 Author Posted June 10, 2006 The site is back up and running. Just gut into it a minute ago. Quote
dfang Posted June 10, 2006 Posted June 10, 2006 Was at SimHQ earlier,,noticed page loading very slow,,had that bad feeling.... But on a happier note,,,just got my copy of WOE today at Best Buys.... :) Hope the sites get back to normal soon... Quote
triplethr3at Posted August 19, 2007 Posted August 19, 2007 does anyone know when their download section would be back on Quote
+FastCargo Posted August 19, 2007 Posted August 19, 2007 Does SimHQ have a download section? FastCargo Quote
+BUFF Posted August 19, 2007 Posted August 19, 2007 They used to & apparently they are planning to bring it back. Quote
+SayethWhaaaa Posted August 19, 2007 Posted August 19, 2007 They used to & apparently they are planning to bring it back. what's it at now...? Something like 8 or 9 months or so since it was up...? Quote
+BUFF Posted August 19, 2007 Posted August 19, 2007 it's actually years in terms of a decent, reasonably comprehensive & upto date download section - once upon a time it was probably the place for downloads for most sims. Quote
Aintry Posted August 19, 2007 Posted August 19, 2007 I don't know why SimHQ would even bother reviving its download section. Other download sites have taken up the slack. Quote
+FastCargo Posted August 19, 2007 Posted August 19, 2007 I don't know why SimHQ would even bother reviving its download section. Other download sites have taken up the slack. That's what I was thinking...they seem to get great traffic without the downloads. I'd think it would be more of a hassle at this point. Besides, I'd rather be here for my downloads...

+SayethWhaaaa Posted August 20, 2007 Posted August 20, 2007 The only reason I've had to use SimHQ is to get the Tornado F.3 for SFP. Even then, most places I can access the web from can't seem to find that page and even then it's 50/50 as to if the link is broken. I'll get the F.3... one day... :yes: Quote
Guest Saganuay82 Posted August 20, 2007 Posted August 20, 2007 F.3? What do you want? Is that the old model for SFP1? Or is this some other game? Quote
+BUFF Posted August 20, 2007 Posted August 20, 2007 iirc it's not a proper F.3 model though, just the IDS with data./ini edits etc. Quote
+JediMaster Posted August 20, 2007 Posted August 20, 2007 IIRC, they mentioned the DL section at SHQ will be back later this year. No word yet on specifics or what it will have. As mentioned, though, most stuff is already here. Quote
Guest Saganuay82 Posted August 20, 2007 Posted August 20, 2007 It really doesn't matter if SHQ is down or not. Only thing that is good there is the archives and their search system sucks the big one now. Quote
+SayethWhaaaa Posted August 21, 2007 Posted August 21, 2007 F.3? What do you want? Is that the old model for SFP1? Or is this some other game? Yeah, I'm guessing its the old buggy one that was released a year or two ago. Another user here was kind enough to email a copy to me but it was detected as a virus and neutered by my email account! And being a former Librarian, I'm particular about my search engines and theirs sucks balls! I mean there are universal elements to (decent) alphanumeric search engines that it doesn't even use...

Guest Saganuay82 Posted August 21, 2007 Posted August 21, 2007 The IDS with edits? To add Sidewinders? Quote
