  • Welcome back!

    We decided to spruce things up and fix some things under the hood. If you notice any issues, feel free to contact us as we're sure there are a few things here or there that we might have missed in our upgrade.

I first want to thank whomever is putting in the work to update the site. I hope we get back to being the active and helpful place we once were. One of our regulars has mentioned that she's been unable to log in through Tapatalk. I don't use Tapatalk, but I know many of our regular posters do. I just thought I'd mention it here as I think that those members that only use Tapatalk might think the forum is gone for good.

Thanks again for the updates!

Hi Boxergirl :) I would be the one getting this forum whipped back into shape along with the owner, i was asked to help and here we are. It should be mentioned that there is no need for tapatalk here on this new software, it is optimized for cellular devices. We can set some things up for Tapatalk but in general, we are back and stronger than ever! As long as i am here, i will do my best to make sure the board will be up and running smoothly! Might be a few kinks here and there right now with the migration but the site should be functional and working without any google errors.

I think there are so many people that *only* access the site through Tapatalk that they will not even try any other way. If possible I think it would be great if you could set something up for those people that prefer to use the app. I know that there were a lot of members that did prefer that method. Thanks again for all the hard work. Things look great!

I will definitely link us up with Tapatalk :) and you're welcome. I have had forums for years and it sucked seeing such a big community going down the drain.

YAY! I'm in. I was one who primarily uses Tapatalk. I'm so excited to see it back without errors. I hope it gets back to the flourishing place it once was. :) Thanks St@ffy!

Just wondering, can any of the administrators send a blast email out to all the members letting them know we are back? A little marketing to get folks back in the door? I think many of the old timers quit stopping by. :(

Absolutely, great suggestion, we actually talked about doing that a couple days ago. Now that is seeming to run good and smoothly we will start email or message blasting :)

Quick note, we will be getting rid of tapatalk here soon, we have had problems with them in the past and we don't want it carrying over here on the board.

Oh my goodness! I am finally back on my computer in here! It is worth noting that if you try to follow old google links via a google search for the site you will run into the same old messages about it being an insecure site and get blocked by security measures in place. I also wasn't able to get in via Tapa Talk a few minutes ago (it was the only way I was continuing to access the site when all my laptops were blocking it). But, I am thrilled to see it is back up on my lap top and accessible (as long as I don't try to follow the google links). Thanks for getting it back up! :)

Thanks to all those who have gotten this forum back up and running! Tapatalk has its issues but yes for some it was the only way they were accessing the fantastic info shared here. When you do let members know that all is once again functioning as it should don't forget to use that as one of the possible means to help bring people back to being active.

Exactly, i agree, we need to leave it for a few so members who are not in the know can find their way back. Once we feel it's ran it's course we will make an announcement but we do plan on doing away with it per the owners request as is there is no need for it with this new software.

Thank you for all the feedback and welcome back.
A big thank you to St@ffy for all his hard work, and for adding my new avatar. :p (Those are his ugly pants)
