Whoa! Another More Changes To The Site!
« on: September 17, 2006, 05:02:16 PM »





             I'm all for improvement but, if this keeps up, I may have to have a booklet of operating instructions Ha! Ha!  ;D  ;D  Seriously, I'd been on the site several times today, checking for any new info or pictures and all of a sudden things were different and I thought I'd screwed up some how. My hat's off to Glenn and those who are responsible for keeping things going, cause they're doing a hell-of-a-job This is definitely the best site around and growing. Later on, Bill

I think he's talking about http://www.sohc4.us.  Everything is gone but the forums.  And there's no security on the blank FAQ's

Must be a system problem on your end since I see the website and gallery pages.  The FAQ that is on the website is experimental right now and yes, it is open for people to post questions, but closed for answers.  However, I notice that the open question format has allowed some spammers to post there.  Something I'll fix.

Is that the Parkview Consultants FAQ in the Ignition section?

As did I. I put it down to a frenzy of member activity at that time.

I think what Billy is on about is, when you first log onto the site and before you go any further the home page has changed twice recently.

          Yes, I do believe we have a winner! Maybe everyone else was there and saw the changes firsthand but, I missed them apparently. I mean, I'm always glad when there is an improvement but, when you are faced with changes and had no idea that they were coming, it kinda makes you stand up and pay attention. I am glad to say that I'm glad to have folks running the show that know what they're doin'. You see I'm not all that computer literate and I'm still learning to do things that some have picked up some time back. I'm a-learning though.      Later on, Bill

I would have to say outside of the short outage that we had last week ( I think it was) I have noticed no major differences or troubles with the site at all. I keep hearing that you guys did a major upgrade and the index page for the site was changed. To tell you the truth the only thing I noticed was that the index page had changed. Like the new one much better.

What this all means is that you guys did some outstanding system admin work for a forum junkie (no relation to CBjunkie-  :D )like me not to notice it.

Ok now that we have all said all these great things about this site. Go to your Paypal account and stop being stingy and send atleast $3 to help out with the Admin of this site. No I was not payed or threatened to say such a thing.  ;D

Here's a link to get you started in the right place.

HEY !!?!?!?!?! WHERE THE HECK DID THE DONATE LINK GO TO?
