Is it just me or is everyone else unable to access that site?
-
UUtesParticipant
Down for me too.

I just wonder how long until it goes dark for good.

I think UFN is in the death knell.
Here, my friends made this. It’ll make you feel better:

Looks like Jill Stein’s Occupy warriors ran out of money. Time for another GoFundMe round.

SkinyUteParticipant
But remember kids, it’s just those big meanies over at UFN who shoehorn politics into their posts!

Hey @mesovanhorny I fixed your video. It will work if you put the youtube URL on its own line. Not saying that makes sense, but it’s the way it is.

Tony (admin)Keymaster
Wait a sec. It isn’t the 21st. Now I’m confused.

DaedalusParticipant
maybe the check bounced.

Here we go again…

Tacoma UteParticipant
I thought we’d see a big migration over her with ufn being down. Where is everybody?

There were a lot of hurt feelings over there about (factual) things that were said about Zombie UFN on this site.
Maybe that’s part of it.

Waiting patiently for the next dead cat bounce.

I am guessing that UFN has finally died (again). But this time it’s probably permanent.

If this really is the end maybe Chris would finally be open to unloading UFN, I mean, he’s clearly exhausted all fundraising opportunities, and if he’s not getting any ad revenue he might finally give it up to someone who actually cares to maintain it.

Tacoma UteParticipant
I think he waited too long. I’m sure it’s worth has declined dramatically.
-
TheJuggernautParticipant
Undoubtedly, he had to squeeze every dollar he could out of it though.

Unfortunately UFN is still a big draw for traffic, google Utah message boards and it’s usually the top hit.
There are too many sites to go to now for Utah related information, I’m on of the admins for UteNation on FB so I mainly camp out there but i’m also on UteZone. I struggle with this site, kind of hard to find a thread so I still to the recent posts and go from there. I like UB5 from time to time, but that’s because I can use TapTalk.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAND it’s down again.
Death knell?
-
leftyjaceParticipant
Whoops. I spoke too soon.
Maybe someone needed to pour some more moonshine in the engine.
-
SkinyUteParticipant
Wait, there’s moonshine involved? Why was I not notified immediately?

…and it’s down yet again this morning.

…and it’s down yet again this morning.
This time it is a 500 server error. That’s a misconfiguration of the server, or bad php code somewhere. I have the skills to diagnose and fix that kind of stuff.
As I’ve mentioned, in my estimation it will go down more and more as time goes on. The codebase is so outdated it is bound to eventually die completely as their host updates their server and the outdated backend code becomes more and more incompatible.
Or all the malware the site has eats itself…
Or the bills aren’t paid…
Or all of the above.

UF.N RIP.

It’s back up. Seems that it’s starting to enter this realm of hiccuping every once in a while. 🙂

Reminds you of a death spiral. The episodes happen more and more and eventually the subject does not come back.
