Is the VPI Forum Down Again?

Still sounds like "Closed for Remodeling".

I highly doubt that we will ever see the Vpi forum again, nor the old forum content.  Simply not a priority for VPI.  

Sadly, I must agree with you. It's gone.

Don't know how many times I've heard "Go Daddy" corrupted and lost everything, although it was probably one time. Yet, if Go Daddy did, how on earth could they not be held responsible??

I wonder whether VPI just grew tired of the direct and indirect criticism of their own products on their own forum.  There was a very long and very critical thread about their ADS drive system.  It was so critical, including complaints from buyers, that they had to shut it down.  More recently there were threads about using the SOTA offerings of motor, drive system and tachometer for VPIs that were far better than the VPI motor and drive system.
