All, especially those that are up in arms...
Whenever I have tried to access a RedClouds pic this evening, I get taken to the login page. When I try to login, I get the following message:
Unable to connect
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at auth.redclouds.com.
Granted, I am not sure if my login is correct or not, but most importantly, it seems you cannot access RedClouds or HomeClips without logging in. All you can see is the preview picture with the naughty bits covered by a black bar.
Is this is response to the complaints? I have no idea. If it is, then kudos to the VW crew listening to valid reasons from posters and acting quickly. Now mind you, I did not attempt to view the site until around 8pm central time. So it could have been different earlier in the day or it could be some issue with my browser--don't think so but you never know--or it could be from too much traffic on the site. Again, I have no idea. Hopefully, Kate or someone else will chime in and offer an explanation.
Now for those of you who are having problems with the preview pictures, I remind you that the old site was the same way. If you clicked on "Contri Rankings" before, you saw the same type of preview with the pubes blacked out. Nothing has changed there.
I realize since the VW went down a month ago, this forum has been mainly a big pissing match with everyone whipping out their nine pounders and claiming to know the scoop. I may get flamed for siding with VW and that is fine. As I stated in another post, we will eventually see how this all shakes out but I tend to side with those having the most plausible explanation. As far as I can tell, that is VW. The story put forth holds the most water. But I could be wrong or the story could be somewhere in between. If so, well I will be the first to admit I am wrong. But until then, I say wait and see.
And to those that are astounded that Kate or Ghost or whoever has not responded to the posts in this thread yet, let me offer this possibility: if they have been working around the clock to get things up and running (albeit not perfect with quite a few glitches--but, hey, those of you screaming for them to at least put something up, well you have something up!), and things went live late Sunday/early Monday, maybe some folks needed some sleep. For christ sakes, it's an internet porn site, not a firestation or emergency room!!!
Now if some or all of you can see the entire posts for RC or HC at this point in time, I would certainly welcome a reply post. At least then I would know the problem IS with my TV and not network difficulties! LOL
Happy jacking fellers...
