I had the old addy bookmarked and everything has been fine the past few days since you changed servers but all of a sudden I can't get to the site. I tried typing in the new addy but got a message saying the address couldn't be found. I finally got here by typing in bigbrotherfanclub.com. Help!

You are here now.....

the DNS keep updating themselves, it just takes time.

the correct URL is

http://tvclubhouse.bomis.com/

bigbrotherfanclub.com and tvclubhouse.com will also work, it just depends on which computer out there on the internet you connect through, there is nothing more anyone can do.

your old bookmarks will need to be changed.

Thanks Ryn! I changed my bookmarks and that did the trick!

Well, I have changed my bookmarks numerous times.. I have hand typed in the new address, I've copied it from the mirror site, NOTHING works for me. I can often get to the home page and can even access other areas of the board but NOT the Big Brother III area continuously given the "can't reach this site" message. The @anonymouse.com detour worked tonight but even then when trying to refresh, it failed. Before resorting to @nonymouse.com again I cleaned my cache and tried the new address AGAIN and got as far as the T-shirt home page but once I clicked on the pic, the "can't find this site" message appeared. I went back to @nonymouse.com and made it here.

It would seem from the number of new messages that a lot of people aren't getting through one way or another. I'll keep trying any way I can because NO other board compares!I'm not complaining just sharing my experience in hopes you can help me or I can help someone else!

Okay, I promised my mom I'd come here on her behalf because she can't get here in any way shape or form. Being probably the biggest full-time lurker ever, she's rather frustrated and wants advice. The address change was quite awhile ago. Any suggestions/explanations?

Carrly: It was suggested by an Admin to try getting here through an anonymous server and they provided this: http://@nonymouse.com/

You could review the DNS Tutorial for other ideas and information.

Good luck.

Was trying to get here and bigbrotherfanclub.com doesn't work from my computer. I kept getting the "site under construction" web page. I couldn't remember how to spell bomis.com either so I entered tvclubhouse.boomis.com WHOoooAaaaa!!!!! Won't do that again. Finally spelled bomis right and got here.

It's a crazy crazy crazy world out there!
