Im returning to the speedrunning scene and wanted to improve my tech a bit I currently have wsplit which for all intensive purposes will work fine. I however decided i would like to see what else is available and checked the resources, but livesplit.org for some reason always gives me the same message "403 Forbidden You don't have permission to access / on this server." anyone know why this would happen?

True, I have the same problem

Website got hacked, new version is being developed here without Wordpress : https://livesplit.github.io

ETA : who knows

I've edited the link on the resources page so that it works again.

http://livesplit.org/ is back.

LiveSplit has online features programmed in it (like updates), so it's possible that the program was checking and trying to find the website. I'm not a programmer though and I'm guessing LiveSplit times out at some point, so I'm probably wrong.

I think you should change the LiveSplit download link on the Resources page back to http://livesplit.org/downloads/

I'll do that when I'm on my computer
