Working fine for me, but there have been cases of others not being able to join in.

I had issues but followed the instructions to clear cookies and history and everything returned to normal.

The forum has been broken for me for about the past week. The main page on the site still works.

Which browser are you using?

If Chrome, try an Incognito window (Ctl+Shift+N) and see if you can get in. This launches a window completely free of cached credentials, cookies, etc. I'm betting it lets you in. If it does, then you haven't cleared enough data from your "normal" browser.

Firefox has a similar feature called Private Window (Ctl+Shift+P), and Internet Explorer has InPrivate Browsing (Ctl+Shift+P). If you're a Mac user, then Safari has Private Window (Command+Shift+N).

In chrome try this:

Press Cntrl-H

You should get a "History" page. On the upper left there are three choices, click on "Clear Browsing Data" On the next page make sure the top four boxes are checked.

If you have not cleared History in awhile, "from beginning of time" is a good choice.

The down side is it will take longer for some pages to load since there Chrome will no longer be holding a "route" to that URL and most of the cookies that have been placed on your browser will be gone (this is mixed blessing but will not lock you out of anything).

This process is not a bad idea for routine computer maintenance in order to get rid of the tons of crap sites drop on your computer.

Zane states that his site works best with Chrome, so going to Internet Explorer may just complicate things.

I've never heard of this other forum you speak of. Are those guys legit and do they have Maules? I wonder if they are even real pilots. :o

BCP is mostly spam can drivers, but some Maule guys over there as well.

Some good info as well. Much larger group; therefore, more information and more BS.

Spam can. Is that the Ubiquitous Spam-sna, made in Cans-ass?

Those pictures certainly are inspiring, aren't they? Makes me long to live outside the flatlands, sometimes.
