any one here belong to the y-block forefver forum?, i've been trying but no luck, is it gone?, jerry
I've looked at it a few times but never joined. It has recent posts so it must still be alive..
it was moved to a new server, so your old bookmarks will not take you to the new site. do a search and you will find it. Mark
They're still working out the bugs on the new site. I think it will be a big improvement over the old one when things get sorted out.
The new site is up and running great! Jim and Ted have done a great job with it. As stated above your old links my not work, just do a search and it should bring you to the home page which looks the same as before. If you have problems, let me know and I will pass it along to Ted.
I got 5o the new forum from the home page.. the bookmark to the old forum is dead. The new forum is a big improvement over the old one. They did a good job on it.
Looks so different now. Not really but the subtle changes makes it seem that way.
Jerry, did you ever get on the new site? I just saw your PM this morning, you should have gotten an email from Ted with tips on how to log into the site, if not check your suspected spam folder, it may have been blocked.

I was wondering if someone would tell me how to to reconnect to the Y block forever forum. Thanks
Go to the google, and type in Y blocks forever. That will point you in the right direction of the new servers.
or go here...

If you have it book marked delete it and try again, I had the same message again and again but was able to get there on my wife's computer, after that I deleted the old book mark and that seems to have fixed it. I do not know how these work, but if I mess it up my wife has all ways fixed it for me.
thanks for all the info, i have thje Y block forum up and running, boy, i hate winter, jerry
lol. I know. I think it is something in the cookies on your computer. I don't know how, but pretty sure. They are there fo rfaster loading and stuff. And if your old cookie points you to the old server, well, then you have problems.
I tried everything but still no luck. There is a string on the Fordbarn directing people to Ted Eaton at eatonbalancing@yahoo.com. I don't know who that is, but sent off an email to him this morning. We'll see what happens.
Jay...I just clicked on the y block link you supplied in post reply #10, and it got me right to the y-block forumn. Are you at least getting that, or is your problem you can't log in?
Rich
Rich I just tried that #10 link again this morning and this gibberish stuff is all I get.
Yesterday I sent an email off to Ted Eaton at eatonbalancing@yahoo .com asking for help to get back on the forum. I'm still waiting for an answer. I believe that he may be a moderator on that forum. Jay

Jay, Ted will fix you up, for the time being try this. Delete any shortcuts or saved favorites related to the y block site, next just type in y block in goggle. It should come up with the new link to the site, your old login and password should still work.

He sure did... Ted sent me an email today and stated that he did some resets for me and now I'm all signed in and up and running. All I had to do was click on the link and it worked. I still have my same log in also.
That gibberish stuff that I kept getting was scary.
A special thanks to

Glen, Computer stuff is Greek to me also. I just keep on trying because it sure is a fast way to keep abreast of Y blocks, engines, mechanical stuff and ideas . Remember the days when we had to look in books and car manuals? I remember in the 50s when we would have to walk to the service station to ask the mechanic about different adjustments and settings on the engines and related parts. Sometimes we would get lucky and be able to borrow a manual. But computers are still Greek to me.
Sprink...But you guys did try. My problem is mostly me and my computer inexperience. Someone should come up with a computer dictionary. Like I always thought that default was something bad. I would always say NO when the computer asked if I wanted something for a default. Cookies were things that out mother made for us to eat. I still don't know what the cookies do in a computer. I'm always afraid that I might push the wrong button and make things disappear. Believe me I've done it often enough and have had to wait until someone would come by and bail me out..
