Hey guys. I've been trying to get on to Tuz for the last few days but it wouldn't load so I just thought it was down. But just recently I tried accessing it from my phone and it works.

Does anyone know what might be causing this problem?

    This happened to me a while ago too. After Marty did something with the server and then he cleared/restarted something on the server and then I was able to log back on.

    Cleared my cookies and tried a different browser. No luck.

    I think I now remember Marty saying, when I had this problem before, the server is restricting access to my IP address.

    Couple of reasons I could think of (in addition to what other people posted)

    a) You have refreshed the NSFW thread too often so that the server has blocked your ip ;) Just kidding. Kind of. It is possible you're blocked by our server
    b) Your ISP is unable to route to the server IP at the moment. This happens occationally.

    When on your phone, do you use your wifi connection at home? If so that rules out both my ideas. If you're on 3G/4G or another wifi network I think it's either a) or b).

    What else? Hmm have you checked if there are any entries in your hosts file for forum.juventuz.org? If so, remove, save and refresh.

    Hey Marty.

    How do I clear out entries in host files?

    Hey Marty.

    How do I clear out entries in host files?
    Just open the hosts file (google for the location of it if you don't know) then comment with # or remove the line containing forum.juventuz.org. Then save the file. Empty browser cache. Try connecting again.

    You could also open command prompt/terminal and type this:

    traceroute forum.juventuz.org

    (or tracert forum.juventuz.org depending on OS).

    Report back to me. And answer my other questions above :)

    No luck. I see nothing in the host file.

    When I used the trace route command I got something like this:

    No route to host
    And
    Host is down
