As far as I can tell they've just about abandoned their website. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. The main site is not kept current and the forums there are virtually dead.
The VMBC has really been pushing the facebook page (just check the club magazines lately) which I think is a bad move. I've been plenty critical of the VMBC management and decisions over the years but I've got to say that this one is a little baffling. Instead of promoting and trying to drive traffic to the club's site (that they are actually paying for!) and instead of trying to get the forum moving, they are telling folks to join the party on a third party site (facebook). It just doesn't make any sense. I agree they should ditch FB and take the party to their site.
The club obviously doesn't have anyone functioning as a webmaster so the site has been virtually untouched since it was launched. Seems to me like the forum there could be a gold mine but instead folks are split up on here, Smokstak, AMCA, CAI, and other sites. Their forum and registration was slow and clunky, but it got the job done. I just don't understand why it isn't working in principle.
I get the same error messages and warnings that pd does.
