Hi guys,

First off, amazing work on the forums. I've worked with all of the big ones (paid and free), but I like this one the most.

One little note, if someone wobbles over to http://www.simple-machines.org [nofollow], they get some errors :) I'm not sure if this is your domain or not (I'm too lazy to WHOIS atm), but you may want to redirect or fix it so that you have a unified client interface :)

The simple-machines.org site has been occassionally, mainly during site outages.

Are you sure? Doesn't seem to be owned by Lewis Media or SimpleMachines, Joseph, David or Jeff

Ive only ever seen http://www.simplemachinesforum.org/community/ being used during downtime.

Hi Vostok4.

I would very interested to hear how you managed to find the site "simple-machines.org" as it has only recently been registered, isn't even working properly, and is not in any of the Search Engines indexes yet. ???

AFAIK nothing to do with simple machines.

Accidental typo I would guess. Not hard to add an extra "-" to a domain.

Indeed, it was just a typo :) That's what long days at work then long nights at home will do to you, I guess...

My bad. Got mixed up.

Not hard to find yourself in that bogus site.  Just found myself there a few minutes ago. Typing www.simplemachine.org [nofollow] (note the missing S) redirects you to the www.simple-machines.org [nofollow] forum.  It is much easier to lose the s in machines than add a hyphen in the middle.
