General TR Info about that English TR Forum?

[TR Tom]

Like a lot of you I’m sure, I monitor and participate in several Triumph forums.

One that I always enjoyed reading ( but never participated in) was the TRForums out of England. Great to get a different perspective on the TR problems we all deal with. Plus there are those wonderful British expressions…they always talk about “niggling” problems that would become a “bit of a fiddle”. Of course my favorite was when they screwed something up and made “a bit of a dog’s breakfast out of it”.

Anyway, over the last month it was getting harder and harder to log into, and now I can’t get it at all. I don’t know if it’s gone away, or my caveman internet service just can’t find it anymore. Or maybe it’s just me and my admittedly Amish computer skills (there’s a reason I can only figure out how to fix cars that are at least 60 years old).

Any information would be greatly appreciated,
Tom

That is an excellent and very active forum.

Thanks all,
I tried both the links Tom and Hamish suggested. On both I continue to get:

“Safari can’t open the page because the server can’t be found”

I had been using the address Tom shows, trforums.com for a couple years, but gradually started getting the above message, until now that’s all I get.

If it matters, I access forums with my iPad, and admittedly don’t have the best internet provider. Beyond that I’m totally lost, and won’t be offended if you talk to me like I don’t know anything…because I don’t!

You may need to clear your cookies. Often your anti-virus decides not to let you go to pages you use a lot. Usually clearing your history and cookies resets that. Occasionally you have to go deeper into the anti-virus program to delete the pages from the "bad" list.

Thanks John, I’ll give that a try.
…wish me luck!

 

[TR Tom]

Well, you were right John, once I cleared my cookies (actually I had to have my wife do it) all is good.
Thank you,
Tom

Glad it worked. It's happened to me a few times over the years!

 

[TR Tom]

And it worked great…for a day. Now back to same “Safari can’t open…” that I was getting before, no matter what I do. Interesting that all other forums I use work fine.

This is definitely above my pay grade to solve!
