Please please please!!!

We had a little mix up which caused a few minute task to keep the site closed for over 5 hours. My apologies for the inconvenience, we should have smooth sailing ahead.

The issues with permissions on the blogs have now been fixed.

This is a good idea and I will pass it on to the software firm that develops the blog software. The same logic should be used for searching, seems stupid to have to search either blogs, forums, etc. Unfortunately that's how the software works for now but feeding them these ideas can't hurt.

Yes, everyone's blogs will be visible soon. I already reported the issue but odds are Jeff won't be able to address them until tonight. Basically the settings for all the blogs are set to private and we need to adjust this or else everyone will be blogging by themselves. If you want to enable...

Yes, we have a few odds and ends to work out still. Typically Jeff (Tech Admin) only has time to help out in the late evenings (US East Coast time) so please be patient. The nice thing is that we will not be on this new software which has a new version coming out soon and development will...

We are working on the blogs. Basically the software that is running them is no longer being developed or supported. We will be converting over to the blog system that is sold by the same software company that makes the forum software. Jeff tried last night but ran into some glitches so we...

Not sure what caused this issue, but it had to do with a .CSS file. It's fixed now, sorry about the crazy looking site.

Can you all give me more information. How long have these issues been happening? Can you describe the changes with the recent posts not showing a bit better? Where were they seen, just from going to Blogging >> Blog Directory?

I just saw th fat kid soldier "from the internet", that's really funny.

Thanks for stepping up and offering to help out. I know the site has been through a lot in the past and this is a great step in the right direction. Your input and guidance (as well as spam zapping skills) are very much appreciated and respected. Welcome to the team!

Great, thanks for replying. It looks like the DNS changes have propagated for the most part.

Great at least we know one member is seeing the new server. I hope the others can too. DNS seems to work as advertised much better these days then it did 10 years ago. Glad you can see the new server...

The move to the new server is complete. I need your help to know that everyone can see the new server. So please post a quick message here to let me know that you can see the new server also.

I just wanted to post a "thank you" to Stewart and Ice for managing the community over the last year. They have done a great job keeping the site spam free and Stewart has contributed a considerable amount of time optimizing our site for the search engines. So please show your support for...

The DNS is updated and the new server is ready for our site to be moved to it. I will practice the migration tonight and then close the site tomorrow night to do the real move. That means the site will be down tomorrow night (10:00 CST) and it should be a fast move (little down time). There...

I was going to move the site to a new server tonight but the Registrar gave me errors when trying to change the DNS. I have contacted them for support. Instead of turning the site off for the evening and not doing anything I upgraded the software running the forums to the latest version which...

Great call Stewart! How about I move the forum to my servers tonight and upgrade to vBulletin 3.7 tomorrow night?

That's an interesting idea. I am all for trying things and if they are successful and people enjoy them then we can iron out the process to make it easier to manage on an ongoing basis. I am willing to get some B&R stuff to give away or even some gift certificates for an online bookstore. I...

The current ad layout will remain the same for all logged in members. You probably noticed the big block with the 300x250 ads when you were on the other SK sites. Those are there to get people to register, it's been effective. Once you are logged in they are removed. I do plan to put those...
