Strange, it works for most of us.

I can't get to it either ;_;

Weird. It's perfectly fine for me...

I got it once a few days ago, but it worked fine after that 

Rumor has it that dot.tk randomly denies some IPs after a site reaches a couple thousand views per day. This being true for Steve's Forums, I beleive it's not 1FH's fault for not loading for some IPs, it's dot.tk.

I'll look into switching the domain tomorrow and see if it works then for everyone or not.

I heard dot.tk does that as well. What about co.cc?

Perhaps I'll try that.

I'm pretty sure you don't get 2,000 hits a day. How'd you figure that out?

I'm pretty sure I hit it 2,000 times a day.

We do, we track our stats via Google Analytics. 

Um, okay. Well like, ten registered users go online per day. Then there's probably around twenty users from here that browse but don't register. That accounts for 1.5% of the views. Where does the other 98.5% come from?

I honestly don't know, but that's page views, not new visitors. So, if I reload the page a hundred times, it adds a hundred page views. 

Ohhh, now that makes sense. I thought it tracked it by IP, so I thought you meant 2,000 different IPs had visited. 

Hehe, yeah. 

14.88% Of daily visits are new. 85.12% Are returning visitors.

Wow, Google Analytics is amazing. I can easily tell that a few days after our new forums opened, a dot.tk admin used their admin control system (http://admin.taloha.com/) to check our forums for spam, as they do for everyone.

Thank you Google!

I think they actually do that to make sure you actually have a website (I've lost multiple domains that way with websites down for long periods of time  )

And yes, Google Analytics is pretty awesome.

Yeah. It could be an issue with 1FreeHosting.

I got it several days ago, but I haven't had it since.

I still haven't found the problem, but I don't think it's due to a problem in the code.

Oh, forgot to mention - no offense, but my forums are more popular (in that there's a lot more posts each day), and none of my users have been reporting it. So I don't think it's anything to do with the .tk.

Of course your forums are more popular, yours have been up for a few more months than mine have.

But, the dot.tk thing is random, it happens to some users and not to others. Maybe I'll contact them.

I'm not going by the total posts, I'm going by posts per day.

Hehe, I know. But two or three months extra allows you to build up a strong user group that will post more.
