what im getting from that url is:

Forum Upgrades underway

Status: Forum transfer complete. DNS changes have been made.
The old DNS may stay on your computer up to 24 hours. You might be able to access your forum sooner by opening a command prompt and typing IPCONFIG /FLUSHDNS

Custom Domain Users will need to update the IP on the name servers to 74.54.239.37



because u have a custom domain you need to go to your provider and change the url to 74.54.239.37

Now, maybe the original poster can explain a little better about what the problem is possibly we can get to the root of the problem and get it resolved for him without a lot of discussion.

If you carry the forum id=1, SMF may be able to restore your account to you so you can clean up your forum.  In other words, did you make the forum yourself? If so, I can ask SMF to reset you in your forum as long as they didn't delete your account.

If you did not make the forum and are not User # 1, SMF will probably not do anything about it. 

He usually does not get involved in forum wars and if you get sloppy with your passwords you are going to get someone taking things away from you.

Also if you don't put down what the real error is that you are getting we can't help you.

The following applys only to those who are using a Custom Domain name:

If you purchased a domain, and parked it on smf for free, you need to change the IP for the nameservers.
You would do that at your domain host (where you purchased the domain name and did the nameserver information originally.

Custom Domain Users will need to update the IP on the name servers to 74.54.239.37

You can get to your forum by using your original smfforfree url until you get it reset.

This is the error I get when I try to go to http://damoscape.net
