  1. Well, that was a bit of a nightmare. I'm sorry for the downtime we had over the past couple of days.

    Basically I tried to install something that completely messed with the database that EVERYTHING is stored in. It shouldn't have happened and I've never experienced this problem before but it did.

    There are a few things missing at the moment that I'm checking out.... PM's/Avatars/Calendars/Drop Down box and a few other things - all on the to do list.

    Basically we are now running on a totally new forum to the old one and Kryptonit3 managed to transfer everything over. We lost some members but only those who have never posted before.

    You will need to reset your password to be able to log back in.

    We worked flat out to get the forum back - thank you for your patience.

    Regards,

    Rob.

  2. PS - this will never happen again as we are on a new server with live backups and in the worst case we will roll back 1 hour!

  8. Me too

    I heard that the Casey Stoner owners club sabotaged the forum because TP kept likening Stoners teeth to the white cliffs at dover and he took offence.
