AARoads was showing a Sedoparking.com website redirect.
What happened? I was unable to visit the site for 2 hours.
I've seen that screen several times before, but this is the first time it's been more than 10 seconds.
If you looked carefully, you could see that the suggestions were a decade old. PS3 and Xbox 360?

Xbox 360 is the most overrated console ever.

Also the Wii.
Other interesting "categories" also appeared, such as mortgage and dating.
Forums and main aaroads.com site
Must have been something domain or hosting related, because it was all of aaroads.com
The forum went :colorful: for awhile this morning.
Beats me. I did nothing to the site today. lol.
Happened for a good while this morning.
I got a "temporarily unavailable" page for maybe 30 minutes or so and the parked domain twice for less than 10 seconds each. Unlike the reason this thread was created, the parked domain page wasn't up for any decent length of time today.
I've had this issue on and off for the last few weeks. Refresh the page and it's gone; the forum returns to normal.
Sounds like a hosting or certificate issue.
It's on the Ionos end. I've brought this up to tech support before and never get anything useful on it.
Considering that I upgraded the server by two tiers within the last year, these DNS issues are very discouraging. When I finish my GIS classes this Fall, I'll consider other hosting options.
It also doesn't help that Wordpress is becoming an increasing resource hog and the script that runs the guide pages is vastly outdated, resulting in queries that iterate through 250,000 records in the database each time a page loads. I looked into object orientated programming as a goal to redo the php guide pages and potentially move everything off of Wordpress except for the blog. Setting up a framework and figuring out objects has proven too difficult for me with my current skillset. I'll return to this after this upcoming semester.

This happening again on my PC (Firefox browser), but not on mobile (Chrome). That "sedoparking.com" site is blocked on Noscript and provides a blank page because of it.
Worked 30 minutes later, oddly.

Xbox 360 is the most overrated console ever.
Sega CD begs to differ (aside from Sonic CD).
I got a blank screen at around 16:01-16:04 Central Time. When I saw the "sedoparking" message in my DNS logs, I immediately checked the whois record and saw that the domain registration isn't due until July, 2025. I thought it was strange since there was a TrueNAS Scale update that I processed followed by a AdGuard Home update for my local DNS services. When I temporarily disabled AdGuard for a minute, the site came back up.
I also had intermittent issues accessing the site yesterday when directly typing the link. Oddly enough Google searching and clicking the results worked perfectly fine.
