justjoseph63[Staff] Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 Hi.. I just attempted to log into the FL. 501st page, and when you click Forums, you are sent to a page that tells you that there are new (very specific) height and weight requirements to join the 501st. It will not let you go any further until you click "Agree" or Disagree". If you click disagree, it says "Thank you for accepting these terms". It certainly looks official, but I am not sure, and it is certainly not funny (actually it's offensive) if it was meant as a joke. Please check it out and let me know your feedback. Thanks!!!!!!!

wingnut65[Staff] Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 (edited) I get the same thing on the forum page. But the homepage www . fl501st . com works fine. Clicking the forum link from there gets the same weird screen. EDIT: Actually clicking on any link on the top bar gets the weirdness. Edited April 1, 2015 by wingnut65 Quote

justjoseph63[Staff] Posted April 1, 2015 Author Report Posted April 1, 2015 OK, OK, Yes, I feel like a complete idiot, LOL. At first, I was a bit alarmed, but now, I think was actually pretty cool. The bad thing is now I want to become the worlds tallest Jawa... 1 Quote
wingnut65[Staff] Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 Ditto. At least I know I will meet the requirements of the Body Building Liaison for the Fett or any of the Stormtrooper costumes! Sometimes ya just need to slow down and read the fine print! Very creative. I think I will like hanging out with this family! 1 Quote
