The url brings me to something that doesn't look like the site at all anymore. It appears to have been hijacked by spam-bots masquerading as links to shopping sites or something!

I didn't even know that site exsisted. Maybe I'll check it out when the spambots get under control.
Is there an active administrater over there? Sounds like some clean ups and updates are in order. If no active administrater it will probobly just continue to fall further into spam land.

Well, it's not a forum. More like an informational site regarding treatment of common climbing injuries. I don't know who created or managed it or why it's gone.

yeah, I'd visited it a month or so ago when I was investigating a finger injury I've got, and it was up. its a relatively simply site, with stuff about injuries relating to the arms, hands, and fingers. most of the stuff there can be found on other orthopedic sites.

I'm guessing their domain name expired and it got squatted.
I read a scary stat that in the past year, 100% of domains that expired got squatted by advertisers.

That's too bad about the site. I've visited it before and the gentleman that runs it was very informative and polite. I believe that either the man running the site or his wife is an orthopedic doctor.
The site had common climbing injuries; ways to self diagnose them and treatment / rehab options depending on the severity of the injury. I had shown the site to a few orthopedic doctors and all of them said the information presented was correct.
I hope the site will come back because it was a great resource.

Hi,
Yah, my wife and I run that site and I didn't realize it was down. I'm on it and will try to get it up with all new (improved?) content.
thanks,
