Kinda odd...the name still exists and goes somewhere, but it's not the cafe. A month of so back they had a user threatening to sue them over something to do with images, and it went down for a couple of days with an explanation on the banner page about what was going on. This time nothing.

Looks like they just updated the domain name contract till next year. I suspect they are probably switching servers and the DNS hasn't caught up yet. I bet they'll be back in a day or two.

If this is the stance that the new owners are taking over this situation, then I will never visit the site ever again. I lurked more than anything, and look for information and advice (was just looking for sample shots for a certain lens). right now, it looks like the site doesn't exist, as if it was deleted. I missed all the "drama" I guess.
No hard feelings towards you Mr. Neal. the site owner is destroying the reputation of the site himself. What a shame

It was fun to sit on the sidelines and watch the drama unfold. Anybody remember Gary Mayo or Mark Cox (Nutestershak)........

I do recall both of those names but did not hang around there enough to see that action. Often wondered what happened to Mark.

As suspected, they forgot to pay their bills. Let the domain name expire. It's now fixed, but it takes a while for the DNS info to propagate completely.
They are not very forthcoming with news about outages, but the head admin, Mike, did admit as much here: http://www.nikoncafe.com/xenf/index.php?threads/error-403-forbidden-pop-ups.275434/#post-3543510

Agree. There's no need to applaud their problems, FM'ers should know better
