Its down again, the constant ads n pop ups make it almost impossible to get around. No response from who ever has taken over it.

🙄 Not sure what's happening. I had it running on stable hardware and it pretty much had no downtime in the last 3-4 years. Appears they've moved hosting companies too as the site is now being served from the Czech Republic.

You would have thought whoever is running it now would have put up apologies and let people know what's occurring during the time it has been working

Czech Republic. Do they even know or care who Castleford tigers are. Can only see it being deleted eventually in time.

In terms of the site I can only apologise. I thought it was going to be in good hands however hopefully this one will take off properly, from a technical side of things it’s certainly easier to manage and less work overall. If you want to spread the word to get it out to other people please do - we’ll try to keep some people away though 😂

It’s back up but can’t log in for some reason.

Matt no worries Matt. Really appreciate the work you put into things.

Just so I’m clear, is the intention for this site to replace the old/previous one?

Cheers

As I no longer control the other site I'm not sure what will happen. It's up and down so much I don't know what's going on.

I set this one up as a few people had asked if I was willing to create a new site due to the on going issues, I will continue to maintain and run this one going forward though as it's certainly easier to keep running.

This is much cleaner... just got to get my head around using and reading the tags rather than actual (sub)forums...

You are able to use the site in a similar fashion as on a typical forum either by clicking on the 'tag' or viewing the list of tags

No there's no charge! It's free and always will be. There's another site I operate which does have a subscription offering however that's still a very much work in progress and not related to this one.

Ok mate cheers that's good to know ...

Private message anyone you think we need on this site guys. We don't want all the old trouble causing bunch over here. Much better to have sensible conversations rather than slagging matches.

HuddsTigers

The old forum isn’t letting me login, reset password or even contact them. Complete mess. Never mind. Least we have this forum.

Maturecasfan

HuddsTigers I had to clear all my history. It then let me on.

Ron

Me too.

Hirsty

Maturecasfan Same here... although Chrome seemed much more flexible than Safari did.

I like the clean lines here. Also, there seems to be no sniping at each other over trivial rubbish... which is nice.

Jackknife

Make the most of it because the trolls will find out about the site before long and they will return 😂

Hirsty

Yeah - would be a shame for this to become a victim of such... @Matt - what are your moderation/staff plans? Do you have enough cover to cater for a potential influx of 'challenging' topics and posts?

Matt

Hirsty

There's things in place to help manage problem users if they appear which wasn't as easy on the other site.

Shameless

Afternoon all.
Good luck with this site Matt - didnt realise you weren't running the old one until I got the PM.

tigerfeat2

Hope fans from other teams eventually come on here it's nice to have different views and not everybody singing from the same hymn sheet

Shameless

tigerfeat2 Same - thought they had kicked me for promoting this site at first!

Jackknife

I cant get on other site at all now, my login details aren't working.

Matt

Same, can't login. Guessing something has broken again... Had that site running for 17 years with hardly any downtime at all. It's not exactly a complicated setup either (or wasn't).
