[QUOTE="Hacker News, post: 69322, member: 365"] Meetup.com's webpage has been throwing 400's and 502's for two hours, and still only half their site seems responsive. There is no way for me to tell Meetup that their site is down. There's no contact page, no e-mail address, no suggestion box, no chat, no nothing. I want to help them get their business online but they have made it nearly impossible. Literally the only e-mail address I have found is for their recruiting/jobs page. This problem is much larger than just one website. I've seen this dozens of times on huge websites over the past two years. Years ago, a company I worked for was actually serving malware on their website, because a server got hacked and we had no idea. Somebody found it on a blackhat internet forum and wanted to tell us, but spent hours trying to track down a generic website contact just to let us know. People of HN: Please tell your job that their website needs a contact page, and somebody in the company who checks the emails and sends them to the right group. This isn't rocket science, y'all.
