Anybody here also on Ruger Forum?

Post by Pisgah »

About 48 hours ago, I found myself involuntarily logged off the Ruger Forum. Tried to get back on, and my login was not accepted. Got a message I had to use the reCAPTCHA to get on -- but it wouldn't give a reCAPTCHA word/phrase to copy, just a message that reCAPTCHA v1 was shut down.

Any clue as to what's going on?

Yeah, over there I am "Bogus Bill". I am at times am Bogus, maybe even Booger, but in real life my name isn't even Bill. At colt I am FeralMerril.
The site does seem to have a lot of bumps, stalls and such. I especially like the looser political section.

I had the same problem. Clear your entire browser history cookies, passwords, bookmarks, everything. Shut down your computer and any router or modem you have. Wait a solid five minutes. Then bring everything back up one piece at a time. Give each time to boot up before starting the next.

When it’s all back up carefully log in. I don’t know which part works but it did.

Actually it's been like that for about nine months now.

Changes and updates are in the works and supposedly on the way.



Whenever I get the message that the forum is unavailable (like now), I log in anyway and it works just fine.

It says "This board is currently disabled." , but it still works fine for me. (though my account may be different)

I spend a lot of time there ( .com ) and yes they do go down often. Sometimes I just click refresh a couple times and it pops up.

Still not letting me in. I try signing in once a day and it gives me a "You have tried to log in too many times, so you have to type in the reCAPTCHA phrase below" -- and reCaptcha gives me the message that reCaptcha v1 has been shut down. The reCaptcha website says Version 1 was shut down 3/31, and that owners of any website showing that message need to download Version 2. Of course, I have no way of contacting them without being able to sign in...

Did you try starting from scratch? I know it’s a pain but after weeks of trying it did work.

Tried it, three times...even tried opening a new account, but then I get "this e-mail address is already in use."

Here comes another shameless plug...

You could visit the Ruger Society https://www.rugersociety.com/ and they have a forum.

An excellent collectors organization, their publications a fantastic and lots of interesting things to participate in.
They will be at the NRA show if you want to meet them https://www.rugersociety.com/NRA_2019.html
