Say "hi" here, and any general non PIC related chat.

Absolutely awful over there right now.
The only way to post is using the "Full Editor".
If you need to log in, you can't do it via the login lnk at the top right of a page. You have to do something that guests can't do, like viewing posts in the "Forum Support" area, then use the full login window that displays.

Hi

Yesterday the forum software was in "trial mode", today got back to "comercial", but as far as usage goes, it looks like it rolled back several weeks.
The same problems, the same version thing, I can't say I have a "dejá vu" feeling, just because I'm quite sure I've seen this movie in a very recent past.
Best regards
Jorge

The Login window seems to be broken right now as well. clicking "Login" after entering info just doesn't do anything.

Oh well, not that it matters, I'm got banned by the automod until the 19th despite multiple emails to the admins to try and get it undone (some jerk marked a bunch of posts in this thread as spam and mine got hit). I genuinely don't think they check the Administrator email. I've tried getting in contact multiple times in order to get necessary permissions to set an avatar (since they locked them off on new accounts back when I made it I think?).

Down again.
I'm just getting:
The page isn’t redirecting properly

An error occurred during a connection to www.microchip.com.

They came back, it seems that they had just maintenance and needed to deal with it before reopening. I was shocked when I saw your discussion because I couldn't understand what you were talking about. I was just reading about the circuit board on it and here you are talking about its shutdown, it was strange but then I noticed that this thread is already 2 years old. I think that you were more shocked when you have entered the site and there was written that it's locked, I am daily entering on it and I don't think that it will be easy to find a similar site which will have the same information as this one has.
