Could somebody see if www.blondieforum.com is working? Been unable to access it for some weeks now, all I get is "Not Found The requested URL / was not found on this server" It seems to have vanished without trace from the internet. I've e-mailed the moderator but received no response. I was wondering if the site has gone, or if I have a problem with my PC or router?

That error message suggests the problem is very much at their side. It seems that the forum software has been deleted. I'd hope there is a backup somewhere as it's always a shame when a forum and it's posts gets lost. While the owner/administrator has provided a platform it's the community who make it what it is and I can't help but feel there is some moral responsibility to at least archive the content or allow someone else to do so.

The owner of the site is listed as Christina Maruhn with email address c.maruhn (at) t-online.de - it may be worth dropping them a line.

Ok thanks for checking. It is by far the best site dedicated to my favourite band and was very active. I've been a member since its inception in 2006. I've received no reply from Christina, how strange.

Hi GSE, I was a member over there too. For reasons unknown it appears that the forum has folded. That is a shame as there was several years of content there. I too tried emailing the site owner but haven't had a response.
