WE'RE BACK

Welcome Back and Holy Crap!!!!
Talk about a messed up couple of weeks. Unfortunately an upgrade of the database by the hosting company ended up causing the entire site to go dark. After several days working with the hosting company we were able to get the main webpage back up and working however there were several files related to the forum that had become corrupt and no longer usable to get the site working again. After talking with a homebrew friend who happens to be a database administrator and guru it was decided that the software needed to be upgraded to ensure that everything could be saved and everything working appropriately. Keep in mind that normally a upgrade of software would usually take months to properly convert over. Since my friend Dan was able to get it done in just over a week is amazing and I cannot thank him enough for his efforts to get this forum not only back up and running but making sure that there's little chance of this happening again.
That said I want to thank all of you for your patience and support. I also want you to please let me know if you see any issues with the new software. This is literally the first time I've been on this forum and haven't had a chance to look through everything yet.
Thanks again!
