It seems to have gone down since Monday

i've been using it a lot the last few days and i've had no problems whatsoever. free leech is now over so it shouldn't be a problem to get on the site.

Can you confirm that you actually can still access it?
I can't seem to access the site with a browser on my comp.

To be honest, I never used it much, and don't recall what my ratio was.
Perhaps I've been banned? Never been banned anywhere, so I have no idea how that works.

Or maybe there is something funny with my ISP?

Confused......

I'm accessing goem right now, so it's not down.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....

I did configure my router to use OpenDNS for my DNS server.
Maybe there are issues with this?

I will try switching, and will see what happens....

Still can't access GOEM, no matter what DNS settings I have. Have confirmed that the site is up and running.

Anyone have any suggestions as to why this would be the case?

I did manage to access a google "cached" FAQ section of GOEM, and it does state that if banned, you should be able to access the site - you just can't log in.

I called my sister, who uses the same ISP as me, and she can access the site without problems.

I've never encountered anything like this before, so I do not know what is up.

My suspicion is my ISP, but I want to be certain before I call them and complain....

%^%^* Rogers!!!

yeah im on it right now as well. try a different browser maybe?

I've tried different browsers, and different computers (XP and OS X).
No dice.

This is messed up. It means that my ISP has blocked off access to a website. What kind of Orwellian age am I living in?

Big Brother is truely watching....
