OT Problems accessing AFV News
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

When I try to go to the main site, "WWW.AFVNEWS.CA", I get the following message: Forbidden You don't have permission to access / on this server. It also says its a 403 forbidden. This just started yesterday. Anyone else having this problem? Last edited by Tanklord on Sat Aug 02, 2008 2:06 pm; edited 2 times in total

Hi Folks! Could it be that George has taken the old site down? Sgt, Scouts Out! _________________ "You can never have too much reconnaissance." General G.S. Patton Jr.

I just sent George an email, checking to see if he is okay. I sent him something in the mail 2 weeks ago, and no response to it has me a little worried. I wish I had his phone number.

George just replied. Yes he did shut down the site at "www.afvnews.ca" but he has moved a lot of it to this site here at geocities. New AFV News site It was a matter of economics. The new site is free as long as he stays within bandwidth limits.

He also said that he would have posted it here, but for some reason he is restricted from entering Com-Central. He hasn't been able to view this site for a month. One of you moderators may want to check into that. I know he doesn't post much, but when he does, its always a gem!

Hi Tanklord! Hi Folks!

- Tanklord

He also said that he would have posted it here, but for some reason he is restricted from entering Com-Central. He hasn't been able to view this site for a month. One of you moderators may want to check into that. I know he doesn't post much, but when he does, its always a gem!

Any chance he has a "Gaming Site" filter in his way?

That's why I can no longer vist AFV News while at work.

Sgt, Scouts Out!

Working on getting the link changed to reflect new site. George has my email, wish he'd let know he was having a problem with access to DG. I'm wondering about game filter also.

Thanks for the reminder about George's site. I had sort of ignored that page after the old forum got spam-bombed. The bookmark for this page will be New AFV News, and the first page as New Old AFV News.
