Forums were down for a few hours tonight (Friday). The hosting company migrated us over to a new faster server and screwed the database up. It took us about 2 1/2 hours to fix it! :twisted:

I'm a little ticked off, but it running now so 8-)

Sorry about that!

and here I got up in the middle of the night to go on the forum and found it gone, was going to post pics of the most amazing Mosins ever, The Stalingrad sniper rifle with Stalins own signature on it as well as the very first Mosin M1891 ever made, and the paperwork showing the truth behind the 91/59. OH well, I put them all back in the vaults with the ten year timelock. :)

Panic, you don't know panic! :shock:

I was working hard to get it back and it is very frustrating being at the mercy of the "Hosting Company". They did a good job, it's just when it's down the time goes very slowly.

I was just sitting there thinking, "All those important files JYD has to upload and he can't get on"! :D

Pretty lousy way to end the month. We lost over 75 visits in that 2 1/2 hours.

It happens... No worries & it's all working fine.

I can wait ten years for Jim's revelations... Adds to the suspense. :P

Thats why I couldn't post my PU's in the marketplace, instead I had to sell them to a local deer hunter for $200.00. ( he would have given me an extra sawbuck if they had already had poly stocks installed on them.)
