Recently ( the 15th of May ? ) I came to argofans.com to do some reading and maybe a post or two. To my horror I received a Code 403 Forbidden message, that I was not allowed access to this site. I have very much enjoyed the few months I have been a member here, and would like to continue - I do not believe I was banned/cutoff - if so I have no idea why. It appears that the Apache server configuration was changed at that time to exclude my IP address.
This is what they call a BUG, for me at least. I hope someday to be back and active on this forum. I enjoyed all of you posts. I will PM Mulder.

Are you still receiveing this error message?

Argofans.com was the victem of a cyber attack located in China (by a state-owned company non-the-less) It caused excessively high CPU usage so the host shut me down. They denied all IP's so everyone was getting the forbidden message (or another message)

The issue is now resolved, with big thanks to Mulder-- and to any others who got it done. Thank you

I mean, since they are hacking us already.
