streetbadges.com?

When I tried to get on here earlier it would say, Site is undergoing maintance please wait while we transfer you to our other server, or something like that and it would take me to streetbadges.com, what is up with that?

After searching the site I can see that it is just an up and coming website. I also found very negative feedback on a product that was "supposibly" sold.

ie: Small SRT emblem v1 $5.00

You are a real piece of work, this guy has hacked Cobaltss.net.

THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS VENDOR NOT PROVIDING GOODS WHEN CASH PAID! BEWARE!

Rating: [1 of 5 Stars!]






That right there is enough for me to be skeptical. A review like that really hurts credibility. Some may say that it was just $5.00, but to me that is $5.00 of my hard earned money wasted on some poor thief.

Ya, that company ripped a lot of people out of $20 when they were 'selling' steering wheel badges, including me.
So was css.net hacked?

I get server too busy every now and then. I think they might be working on the site. I highly doubt they hacked the site. Could be wrong tho. Maybe a mod will tell us whats going on.

There was a banner at the top of the page stating the site was undergoing an upgrade beginning Friday 11/9.

The update was concluded last night with a backup, hence why the site was down from ~12:30am until 5:00am.

Everything is back to normal; I will make Jonyyb aware of the redirect some of you had occur during this update.

As for any issues with the streetbadges.com it needs to be resolved via PM with the vendor.
