IF YOU ARE HAVING "DNS" ERROR TRYING TO GET ON, THIS PROBABLY WONT FIX IT BUT TRY ANYWAY LOL.
I dont know about the DNS Error, but Thrashthumpy was having some problems with getting onto miniriders.
All you should try clearing your cookies + cache. Then reload the site, it may be just a bug or something. I've never had a problem getting on here unless the site was actually down to ALL users. I told Ryan[thrash] how to do this and it fixed his.
If any of you noobs dont know how, if you have IE[Internet Explorer] Go into Tools > Internet Options > General.
In that tab you can see two bottons under the header " Temporary Internet Files " Click on Delete Cookies, and Delete files. Click apply and try and reload Miniriders.
If you have Firefox, its actually pretty simple go into Tools > Clear Private Data. I currently have ticked Cache, Cookies, Browsing History, Authenticated Sessions, Download History and Saved Form and Search History =]
[Doesnt mean you have to tick the same, but tick "Cache" and "Cookies". However you will need to re-login to Miniriders by typing in your username and password, DUH!] , This comes in handy when mum is snooping around my PC for porn aye ?
I know a fair tad about computers, need any help give me a buzz. No guarantees ill be able to fix it though =]
Good Luck!
