    Recent Forum Outage

    Gentlemen, Warriors, and Vile Unwashed of the Horde, as you may know, forum went down yesterday afternoon for no apparent reason and it's taken me til now to get it back.

    Spent the day back and forth with tech support, and I think it was due to various software slowly growing incompatible with each other. (Don't think it was a hack attack.)

    Anyway, I see I lost my fancy header, so there's gonna be some mopping up operations for a few days, but we'll soon seize control and declare the whole thing pacified.

    Onward and upward! Keep calm and carry on.

    John

    P.S. I had to restore from a backup a week ago, so a weeks worth of new registrations and posts are lost. Simply sign up again or PM me if I can be of help.

      It seems there has been a lost of posts that goes back at least a week maybe more. Will they be able to be restored???

        I'm glad you're back up, too. Funny, I logged in to see if it works, logged in fine & now don't see a logout button!

          You can check out any time you like, but you can NEVER LEAVE!

          VG, I doubt it, but I'll check. Brain a little fried at the moment.

            When I logged in things didn't look right! Glad to hear things are looking up again.

                Keeping a site up is a huge job. I had a few sites actually get hacked 'way back ~2002, put a red-death type of main webpage onto it... Keep up the good work man. It's an unsung hero type of job...!

                  I really missed the Forum, when it was down. Thanks, again, for getting us back up to speed.

                        I'd offer my advice as an IT disaster recovery person, but you probably have enough advice from everyone else... And thanks for making the forum live again!

                          Schrambo, go ahead and PM me and we'll talk shop. I like guns, but I ain't an IT guy!

                            Thanks for your work on this great forum. No telling how many injuries have been averted due to the good advice offered here. Tremendous public service.
