This is a fix to the DNS problem HF is having
Well seeing as I had the same problem just now, I'll tell you how I fixed it.
It's very simple and uses Google's DNS. You can also use any of these DNS servers the same way.
I don't know if it's just working for me or it will work for you guys as well. I know Omni said it should soon be fixed but I'll just leave this here for you impatient people.
You go to your network connections. Choose properties.

Thank you sir!
This is always good information :D
Thanks again =]
You're welcome, I just used my ISP's DNS server and tried accessing the site and it didn't work, then tried Google's DNS server and it worked.
This should help some people.
I just tried this and I couldn't connect to HackForums.

Didn't see your post, and google dns would be much more reliable anyway.
@CoolDude you need to put www. in front of hackforums.net for it to work.
Yeah, Linksys wont work for me. I'm using my neighbors ip :P

I'm using a Linksys router as well, works for me so it should work for you.
DO NOT DEAL WITH THIS MEMBER
I use opendns instead, that works well.
Google DNS is the best. They are without doubt the best DNS you can use.

Glad we agree.
To everyone saying it's not working try adding "www." in front of "hackforums.net".
It's working for me so it should work for you.
😖
Good tutorial, this would've helped me earlier.
