Looks like it to me.
not that I can tell
The site has never really gone down fully. You just can't login or do anything other than view it. It hasn't changed as far as I can tell..
Ok, strange.
If it's gone it's supposed to be gone
But yeah I can't log in.
The whole situation is bizarre. Makes you wonder what the owner is possibly getting out of running a forum that nobody can log into, let alone post on.

The cheapest plan for Invision is $89/month. He likely just stopped paying for the subscription because he was losing money despite running ads on the site, though I can't be 100% sure. This forum costs less than that to run for an entire year and I don't plan on ever trying to make money off the forum, so as long as you guys keep using it, I'll keep hosting it...

The URL still is active but the last post was in April.
Yesterday was the first time I actually saw the forum when trying to access the site.
I had been getting a white page with an error message on it filled with a bunch of error gibberish.
Just weird to me. If the URL is still active is he still paying for it?

The site needs two things: a domain and a host. Public records show that the domain is registered and paid for through next year (looks like he renewed it in 2024 for 2 years) and the site is hosted by Invision. That means the forum is unavailable due to some reason with the host (Invision). Anything more would just be speculation unless we heard from the PG admin.

Hope he's not having health issues....
Like you said.
Everything is pure speculation.
Checked today. Still frozen in time 8 months later. You'd think the clock would've struck midnight by now.
Yes, the site is back up

Any link you click leads directly to a GoDaddy page, that includes the one in the April Fools joke and the one that
@DreadnaughtAlum posted when he declared victory over Atticus Finch. And I guess we will never see that Georgia thread again!
Well there goss the beer / game-day drink thread.

Stinks. I pulled so many copy and pastes to show what a hypocritical clown Red Flag was. It was an archive of all the nonsense. Lol

If allowed I would, not sure if allowed and I don't want to pollute the site. I mean a Beer, Boobs and BBQ thread is much better than the trash that was on the old OT section.
I meant just the "what are we drinking tonight" thread. Most of that other stuff was a sewer.
What about adding more reactions?

I actually did try to start one but couldn't get it to work for some reason, maybe I was doing it wrong because I don't usually Start Threads so I am sure it's user error!!.... 🤣🍻
