Parallel Universe?

What is V-Bulletin and why does the CC site keep switching to this format (with a light blue background) when I try to open different forums, and then give a bunch of error messages?? If I click the refresh key a few times it goes back to the "regular" CC screen and seems to be business as usual... for a little while. Then.. *poof* back to the "V-Bulletin" screen. Whazzup???

jym -- I saw that, too! This afternoon around 3:30 I logged on and saw this entirely different layout, different post icons, etc, and the latest posts were from January 2006! When I clicked on one, I got the error message, too. Then I logged out and back in to CC and the old format was back! I thought I was going nuts - glad it wasn't just me

I liked the new layout, by the way!

Someone help!!

This is utterly and completely weird. When I click, I never know which CC I will retrieve....the one from today or the one from 1-27-06. There are some threads posted today on the one forum, and some posted on the earlier forum.

My son got his first rejection this afternoon. I know it was an earthshaking event in our family, but never did I guess that when he posted this on the Swarthmore board it would mess everything up. I swear it's the combined weight of the rejections and waitlists that is doing this to the server. Can anyone fix this?

There seem to be 2 parallel universes or something... I have posted on the "old" and "temporary" forums today. Weird......

This isn't working. My posts are going into the wrong threads.

Sorry, we brought another server online to handle the load and some visitors were incorrectly routed to another site.
