Ray Proudfoot 231 Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 I apologise for posting about TopCat forum here but as it's a programme used with PFPX it's the most appropriate place. The forum has been down for over 3 weeks following a spam attack. This was not the only forum affected - EFB was also attacked - but that one was only down for a day or two. Is anyone actually aware TopCat forum is still down and is anything being done about it? I have a question to ask but until the forum is available again it's not possible.

Phil Philippe, Sorry but are you saying that all posts on the TopCat forum have been lost? I don't understand why when the EFB one was similarly attacked but they just took the forum down whilst they deleted all the spam. All other messages were unaffected. They were back in 48 hours. When will TopCat forum be back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlightSimSoft.com 283 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Sorry, but we´ve been very busy to get a new version of PFPX and solve issues, so this was on the top of our TO-DO list. As a one-man company (and Christian works as pilot beside TOPCAT and PFPX) we´ve at the moment limited time. As soon as possible we´ll have time to get the forum back - until then you´re able to use the support ticket system. Brgds, Judith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Proudfoot 231 Posted January 8, 2015 Author Share Posted January 8, 2015 Hi Judith, Thanks for your post. I'm surprised Christian is the sole developer of both PFPX and TopCat. I thought they were separate developers. It wasn't an urgent enquiry so I'll bide my time until you're back online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlightSimSoft.com 283 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 The old TOPCAT forum is now back - in read only! Because of the huge spam attack we´ve decided to close the old one (as there is no new software for old forum available) and start soon a new forum - In meantime, please use the support ticket system at: www.flightsimsoft.com Brgds, Judith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafal Haczek 1612 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Thanks a lot for letting us know, Judith. As you see, some folks (including me) find it hard to live without TOPCAT (and PFPX of course)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
