Just curious. Maybe just my computer.WHODEY !!!I haven't been able to get on for over a month now. I too figured it was just a problem with my computer. I'm a contractor for the Army, and use their network. Maybe that has something to do with it. That's the only site I have trouble with. Quote
bengalboomer7 Posted February 1, 2005 Report Posted February 1, 2005 I had the same thing keep happening yesterday, but today I'm fine. Quote

denverbengal Posted February 1, 2005 Report Posted February 1, 2005 Maybe it's a conspiracy against the Bengals on behalf of the Army....I almost posted the exact same thing. I'm going to have to talk to someone about this. It's killing me.Let me know if you find anything out. I'd do the same but I'd get a response like "what are you doing on the internet anyway?" Quote
ShulaSteakhouse Posted February 1, 2005 Report Posted February 1, 2005 what are you doing on the internet anyway?"If that's the kind of response you'd get - my guess is it's blocked. If you know any IT guys there or admin's I'd ask them privately if there's any reason why you couldn't view it. Quote

If you know any IT guys there or admin's I'd ask them privately if there's any reason why you couldn't view it.They have this "surf control" crap for sites that they block (i.e. gambling and porn sites) with it's own message saying "access denied." I get the standard "Can not find server...page cannot be displayed" message when I try to go to bengals.com. And that's the only site I have trouble with. The IT guy here is a Steelers fan. Maybe that's the problem. Quote
Kirkendall Posted February 2, 2005 Report Posted February 2, 2005 The IT guy here is a Steelers fan. Maybe that's the problem. That reminds me, I'm a computer tech and there are various Steelers and Browns fans and on each one of them, I put the Bengals.com home page on their IE and put a beautiful picture of a Bengals tiger on the background. The funny part? I've set it to where it resets the homepage and wallpaper each time the computer is rebooted. Now there's word going around if your Pitt or Clev fan then don't tell Josh or he'll Bengalize your ass. Quote

It didn't last long - I came back in an hour or two and it was working fine. Quote

HairOnFire Posted February 3, 2005 Report Posted February 3, 2005 A thread entitled "Just Curious" seems like the perfect place to ask the following question. What's with that little...Warn%...thing under my name? I seem to be the only poster with one. Am I on double super secret probation? Quote

Evidently that is set up so that the person logged in can only see it for their own user name. Quote
ArmyBengal Posted February 3, 2005 Author Report Posted February 3, 2005 We could tell you, but that is G-14 classified...WHODEY !!! Quote
BengalszoneBilly Posted February 3, 2005 Report Posted February 3, 2005 A thread entitled "Just Curious" seems like the perfect place to ask the following question. What's with that little...Warn%...thing under my name? I seem to be the only poster with one. Am I on double super secret probation? Okay folks...EVERYBODY has one of those "warn" meters next to their name. You can only see your own though. If it's at "zero", which 99% of you are, that's a good thing. Try to keep it there. 10% isn't too bad, but you've pushed a button of an administrator or moderator somewhere down the line. Mind your manners for awhile, and it should return to zero. Anything over 10% and you may be in deep doo-doo. Well...as deep as the doo-doo can actually be at a forum! I'd say that's where the "double super secret probation" kicks in at! Quote
not-another Posted February 3, 2005 Report Posted February 3, 2005 I have trobule viewing some of this site at work, like now. It took me many trys to get on here. Quote
BengalszoneBilly Posted February 3, 2005 Report Posted February 3, 2005 I have trouble viewing some of this site at work, like now. It took me many trys to get on here. Sometimes it's that way for me too, but today isn't one of them. Weird. Quote

Mind your manners for awhile, and it should return to zero. Gotcha. I sorta figured it was something like that, but I wanted some clarification before reaching out to push the...big...red...soft...shiny...enticing...buttons that sometimes seem to call out to me. But I must be strong, and always remember to ignore the buttons....especially the little one labeled DontPushMe. You know...life can be pretty easy if you just look for the clues. Quote
BengalszoneBilly Posted February 3, 2005 Report Posted February 3, 2005 especially the little one labeled DontPushMe. Yes. Especially that button. It seems stuck on one topic anyway. Quote
ArmyBengal Posted February 4, 2005 Author Report Posted February 4, 2005 Had a conversation with the computer geek today and got the Bengals.com website back up again today. Happy happy. Check it out Denver, said it was just in the server and should be good from now on. Anyway, have a good one !!!WHODEY !!! Quote
