Something has come to my attention. I am no longer able to access www.primalforums.com. I am wondering if other members are able to access the forum using the aforementioned website address. Please let me know.

I got here using www.primalforums.forumotion.com.

I would like EVERYONE's input on this.

I am thinking Forumotion is trying to make us pay for the benefit of using our own domain name.

I am posting this from primalforums.com. Works OK here. Did you try clearing your browser cache for primalforums.com?

Interesting. What browser are you using? I am on Chrome but have also tried Edge and the Silk browser (comes installed on a Kindle tablet). Nothing. Behind the scenes in admin functions I noticed that now Forumotion want to charge a fee to use your own domain name. I am thinking that is why it does not work as we've been bumped down to a basic plan now that they have implemented this new thing.

I use this, and it is new to me: primalforums.forumotion.com/

I do not clear cookies unless it happens automatically as part of my set up.

If Forumotion is wanting to charge a fee for a domain name, what may be happening is they have turned the domain off but this info hasn't been updated in all of the various DNS servers out there. These are usually assigned by the ISP. Could be mine remembers the ip address for primalforums.com for now. It works in both Chrome/Firefox on Linux & Windows.

This makes sense. However, I JUST logged in using www.primalforums.com again. Weird after two days of it not allowing me to. The plot thickens.

Anyway, you can see, here, what Forumotion is doing (it USED to say our forum address was primalforums.com):

Hahahaha! Funny! The whole thing is so odd. I'm convinced it's a Forumotion thing. I plan to send them an inquiry. But by looking at those screen shots, above, it looks pretty obvious. They've changed the rules in an attempt to make more money.

I got here by primalforums.forumotion.com.  But it looks like you've figured it out already!
