WWc forum and main directory work fine for me.
Water Warrior for three summers and counting.
Was captain of a team, but team disbanded due to lack of interest.
Still love soakers.

Maybe you're right. This site says WWC is up. Still not loading for me, though.

Methinks WWc needs a better anti-bot/spam system set-up as it has been spammed again (I'd clean it, but my moderator privileges aren't working). Hopefully that'll be fixed once the re-boot/re-install is done.

I agree; it's WAY too prone right now. Is it using phpBB 2.0?

WWc is running phpBB3.0 (or might be 3.1 now; Lewis can confirm for sure). Methinks its name is just easy for some reason for bots to find and its lack of a specific security question makes it more vulnerable.
