Odd, I can get to this thread, by clicking where it is listed as the Lastest post. But I get 'Page cannot be displayed' when I try to open the SE IV forum.

http://69.56.133.54:81/threads/postl...t=&Board=UBB23

that's the one that won't come up.

hmmm... why is it using the IP and not a name?

[edit: still can't get to it]
Because they have 'outsourced' their bulletin Boards. A reverse-DNS on that IP returns 'theplanet.com' as the owner, not Shrapnel Games. The Planet is apparently a large Internet Hosting service.

It seems to be working relatively well for me, but then I surf behind Proxomitron with a large set of filters. It could be removing or fixing all sorts of things for me that others cannot get around.
No our entire server farm as at The Planet. We are using the IP because we haven't reserved a name for this particular IP yet.
