Is anybody else having issues getting into the website?

Either it gets stuck on the logo screen, or a bunch of code-like text shows up.

This has happened on several different computers.
 
Yup I was wondering the same thing. Must be having some problems.
 
Wow, I must have been half-asleep when I wrote that; where's my "English mother####er, do you speak it?" image? :p

No, chicagodsm wasn't hacked; it's just a simple mailing list that came years before the ChitownDSM forum. Steve emailed the mailing list a few days ago mentioning that he'd noticed that the forum had been hacked.
 
I hope it's up soon - I need to talk with a guy about a AC comp.
 
Since Chitown is still down, I wanted to share this with my fellow forum members. I found this dude on youtube a few years ago and been jamming him at work until recenty; they (my company) blocked youtube. But, I thought this is one of his best songs and, for us older folks, I think its better than the original.

So, to my fellow Chitown DSMers....and DSMtuners.

That's some damn good guitar! This guy needs to be paired up with someone who does audio recording for a living, though. :)

It's interesting to compare his first few uploads to the most recent ones; did I see both Ave Maria and Led Zeppelin tossed in there? There's a cool acoustic take on Seal too, and he seems to be a big Mraz fan.

Also, on his main page, an interesting note from February:
As of today, i have had two strikes against me regarding copyright infringement courtesy of Cass County Music who own the rights to music by The Eagles. Because of this, videos of my covers of The Eagles and Don Henley have been removed by either Youtube or myself. One more strike and my profile will be permanently deleted. Since all i do here is covers of music i admire, chances are that soon i will be history. Know that i do not profit by any music i post on here. It is sad that some music artists are so vain or desperate that they feel the only people who should perform their music is only themselves. I know that i am not the only one here who performs music by others but i fear that me and others like me are an endangered species. That would truly be tragic for music lovers everywhere. Farewell maybe but thanks for listening anyway.
This. This is why I hate intellectual property laws in the U.S.
 
I got some "interesting" redirects to a particularly amusing malware site while visiting chitowndsm.com the day after it happened. (I'm on Linux, so a website that looks like Windows Explorer telling me that my computer is infectorized isn't very believable. ;))

Unless Mike has a new site sponsorship arrangement with some shady folks, that constitutes "hacked" in my book. ;)
 
Reminds me of when I was in college. All we need is like a "10 Slutiest Sorority List"...
 
I hope it's up soon - I need to talk with a guy about a AC comp.


Hey i told you gamble gave it to me to drop off. You where in rockford i told you to let me know when you are back in town so i can stop by and drop it off. i have the AC in the back of my car just waiting on you :hellyeah:

Also the other mike (neon mike) started chicagoshift.com and his site went down the same day as chitowndsm. they are both though vbulletin. but Neon mike got his up the same day and chitownDsm is still down. why is that?
 
why is that?

Because the mail never stops

Step one: Register a domain. Have your chosen domain registrar host your DNS for you.

Step two: Register for Google Apps Standard Edition, and set up the email service with your domain.

Step three: Give yourself an email address. Heck, give some of your friends email addresses while you're at it.

Total cost to you: about $10/year for the domain, everything else is free, and you'll never have to deal with a website whining about your domain being @gmail.com.
 
Oh dear god.

Another one? So that's DSMtuners, ChitownDSM, the Facebook group, and now your site? (And the old chicagodsm mailing list is still there, even though noone ever posts anymore.)

The fact that there are more sub-forums than actual posts over there suggests how well this is going to go.

(Edit: This was originally in response to a spamvertisement for another site, which has since been deleted.)

Dude, quit spamming DSMtuners. Seriously.

And no, I won't be signing up or sending people there, at least not right now. It's on you to present a good case for why the Chicago-area DSM community needed yet another empty forum to schlep parts on.

Edit: Jesus Goddamn Christ. You posted this crap to every single thread in this forum? Been nice knowing you.
