I’m getting the same message, I’m sure they’ll get it figured out.

Contact Ted Eaton at https://www.eatonbalancing.com/ to join. There’s been so many spammers and bots he finally had to shut off the join function. But he’ll get you in.

Between the site being down, the heat wave, and the racing season, you might have to be a bit patient right now. Normally it wouldn’t take long.

The Y-Blocks Forever forums are currently down. Problems started a few weeks back with the memory for the picture files being full and new pictures could not be posted. Now the server is down to fix that problem and some routine maintenance. What was originally going to be quick fix is now going to take several days. Just be patient and the YBF forums will be back up hopefully in the next few days.
Ted Eaton / just one of the moderators on the YBF forums.

My understanding is that Ted is working on fixing it. Hope he’s successful.

I just tried yblocksforever, and it came up for me this morning.

Edit. Posting works too.

Went to the site, and it opened but when I went to "Register", didn't allow me, didn't go to the "Register" page. I then attempted to simply Log In, and went to that page, but when I clicked "Register" via that page, nothing.

Sites open, but won't allow me to "Register"
