Why is the forum always down?

What is the deal with the site being down all the time?

I don't understand this either. It seems like it happens to go down on Sunday's a lot.

+1, I was thinking the very same thing also.

It gives me more free time to do other work

Hmmm...

Let's see...

• Owner Absentee most of the Past Year
• Most of the Mods 'stepped down'
• Boards are moderated infrequently
• The Banner still has the ad from the 8D Holliday 2011 Auction

Are you really surprised it's down so much?

I see people on other boards bitching about GUU because they have been trying to join, but the current system requires that they be 'vetted' by a live person and they never hear back from anyone.

At this rate, GUU won't last through 2013 IMHO.

As sad as it sounds, I have to agree with this. The hobby is going downhill, and fast.

Also I've gotten e-mails from people saying they're trying to sign up but never hear from anyone. So there's actually a lot of people who want to be members but can't sign up. I don't understand why that is but I hope it gets fixed.

In the past when the site drops, Chris typically would post an apology and a reason for the down time. While I often thought that was incredibly over and above what he needed to do, I've been waiting to her something from the powers that be and am shocked that there hasn't been any explanation.

I almost half expect one day for it not to come back. Hope I'm wrong with that though.

The flip side to all this, I hope all is well up top...ya know?!?

I still spend most of my GU related time here, mainly because I don't really know of anything else out there like it. Any suggestions?

GUU used to be the best site. Where do you guys now frequent the most instead?

Net54 baseball, mainly a card forum but they do have a memorabilia/ game used section.
