[Vivienne]

Anyone else having problems getting into Aled.info this morning? The site totally won't open up for me today

[Console]

Working fine for me.

[Vivienne]

Then, what is likely to be the problem from this end?

[S4B]

Maybe it realises it's you?

[MK Chris]

Code: Select allif ($user->{"name"} eq "Vivienne")
{
   print "Status: 404 Not Found\n\n";
   exit;
}

?

I would laugh.

[Vivienne]

I think it is, Fowler, I got in again... then got booted back out! I need to pick a pm which is annoying.

[foot-loose]

Why do you need to pick up an annoying pm?

Would you not be better just ignoring it?

[bmstinton93]

Aled.info has finally been shut down.

[Boboff]

Oh No!

[SAV1OUR]

Just when his telly career is taking off! (literally)

[Johnny 1989]

Genuine Oh No!

Oh wait wrong thread

Wonder why Aled closed it out of interest?

[Boboff]

It;s a deceased parrot, it is no more.

[Yudster]

I don't think anyone had posted in there for months.

[bmstinton93]

Last time I looked Viv was arguing with Console a couple of months back.

Viv is always arguing with Console though. That much will never change. I'm sure they are married. Well, they ARE married in Viv's head.

[Bonanzoid]

I'm sure there are many things going on in Viv's head that don't represent reality.

[Yudster]

Probably. But give her credit, I bet her head is a happier place to live as a result than many.

[Boboff]

I thought you had worked that one out by now.

Viv = Rose West

[R94N]

He was probably paying for the hosting/bandwidth and decided that it wasn't worth it.

[Boboff]

Arn't the Ad revenues based on activity, so you are right but more to do with lack of activity meaning no revenue to cover costs, rather than a long standing drain on Aleds resources to feed his Ego! Ooops, sorry I mean to provide a forum for frank and friendly discussion about all things Aled.....

[richbrown]

There's definitely enough engagement on Facebook and Twitter to justify some sort of site focused on Aled. It would need to tie in all the social stuff tightly. I hate to say it, but forums aren't exactly the best way to deal with modern social stuff; though they do have their place...

I suppose Twitter is the best place to focus the site unless Aled wants to develop a new site as a platform focusing on his social networking stuff (you've got my email Aled )

[chrysostom]

The thing is, Aled (as a standalone brand) is much less valuable than involvement from Aled himself. He'd never be allowed, but if there was a ' Radio 1 :Surgery Forum' or anything that Aled would contribute to without being the focus - his contribution would lead to a huge rise in engagement.

Basically, Aled needs to start his own dating site.

[bmstinton93]

Thank God this thread is in ramble where Aled doesn't read, otherwise he probably would try and start one knowing him.
