    Since about 2 weeks I can't reach the forum of the website from the Netherlands.
    When I try through a VPN that simulates me being located in the USA it does work.
    That's how I'm writing this message right now.
    Dit you guys change something?
    I 've tried various ISP's that all make the website unavailable.

    Hope this can be resolved.

    It's really inconvenient...
    I've tried 2 different isp's with the same outcome, on both my phone and my laptop to make sure the issue isn't on my end...

    I asked around on a dutch knife forum, seems no one in my country can reach the website.
    Who do I contact for this? @Jeff Randall ? @shaneadams90 ?

    Shane has moved onto other things @Jeff Randall may be able to see if it is the hosting.

    I am not an IT ‘spert at all but am aware that hosting can act when a significant amount of malicious content is being generated from a geographical area.

    Here's what our server administrator replied: "Yes, recently we were receiving a lot of attacks from there and we did block them. If he has a static IP, we could allow it."

    Ah, thanks for checking Jeff.
    Sorry to hear about the attacks coming from here
    Technically my IP is dynamic, but it seems to never actually change...
    I'll send you a PM with the ip address.

    Appreciate it alot!

    edit:

    I can't PM you... not allowed it sais...
    grrr... you guys really don;t want me here eh? ;)

    How do I get my IP to you guys (without showing it publicly here)
