I had it from the owners of the SPSP Forum that it is up and operational again. However, I have heard from a number of people that it is not functioning for them. The powers that be have been informed and are working on the issue however, I have no idea when it might be resolved.
If the embedded link does not work, the URL is http://forum.paymentsecuritypros.com/.
I am glad to have this resource back and look forward to people getting back into the swing of using the Forum.
UPDATE: I wish I could tell you that this resource is going to be functional sometime soon, but I have no idea if it will. I am very sorry that the Forum no longer functions. I can only hope that people resolve their issues and the Forum can be the premier resource for PCI knowledge.
Perhaps my organisation may be able to assist? If I could arrange for the hosting, could we get it back on line? Before long all the members will have found somewhere else to go.
There are negotiations current ongoing to resolve the issues and get things back to “normal.” However I will pass along your offer to the parties that be.
it is still busted. Want to take me up on my offer? any news?
Frankly — this is a hopeless and a very poor outcome from what was a very active forum. Surely by now everyone has gone elsewhere. Any idea where …I am losing patience.
I know. I’m just as disgusted and upset about this as anyone. I have heard nothing since I tried to arrange taking it over.
The SPSP Forum is still locked. Where is everyone going now that this site doesnt function so that they can post questions and interact in useful discussion?
Yes it is very frustrating, but with the Forum caught in a legal battle, we just have to hang in there to get it resolved. I attempted to step in, but could not convince my employer to take the Forum over.
I am still having issues gaining access to the individual forums, although the main page is indeed back up. Glad to see this resource come back online.
I have notified the powers that be, but I am not sure if things have been fixed.
G’day guys. Still asking for password as at 0955 24/1/11 AEST. Here’s hoping it returns soon. CHeers
Looks like the main Discussion groups are still password protected. Looking forward to the site coming back up though!
