I never stopped. Just not having ads is worth it.

Likewise. Never stopped a regular donation with confidence it would only be put to further improve the site, and not pocketed under the table.

Sorry for the downtime!

The site wasn't responding when I went to sleep this morning but was far too tired to look into it. It appeared to be a minor server issue that I hoped would work itself out as they sometimes do. I woke up, and it was still down. :? I contacted support, and within 10 minutes it was fixed. :roll:

If social media is any indicator, we probably aren't far away from seppuku being the new viral trend. :roll: Luckily you can only do it once. :shock: :lol:

I'm currently attempting to better organize the 'Other Makes/Models' forum by creating sub-forums within it for some of the manufactures. Hopefully this helps people to better find and contribute information. It should also help with search engine optimization.

For some reason though, the process of recategorizing things is causing the server to bounce off its proverbial rev limiter. Every time it happens, the board is automatically disabling itself as a fail-safe. :? I don't know why it's happening or feel that it should be. I'll have to contact support to see what they have to say.

It took a week, but I think I'm pretty much done organizing the 'Other Makes/Models' forum. It was way worse than I ever expected it to by. There were also a lot of topics and whatnot that had to be removed. It seemed to be the catch-all place for just about everything. A new forum ended up emerging from it under the 'Miscellaneous Section' called 'Identifications' where I placed all the topics of people looking for help in identifying things.

You're both welcome! :D I'm glad it's appreciated as every single post had to be painstakingly moved one at a time by hand. :shock: That's why it took so long. I feel as if it was completely worth it though.

I don't recall that one specifically, but had to edit a lot of things as well for organizational purposes all for the sake of improvement. If it's an issue for you send me a PM, and I'll be glad to fix it. :)
