I'd just like to thank you Chris for your hard work to keep the site up and running. Mostly it is unnoticed until a glitch like yesterday's,
but all very much appreciated. Thank you
Best regards
John
And me to. You only miss in when you aint got it!!!
I'm not brown nosing him until he fixes the photo upload problem... and the crisis in the middle east!
and the view counts lol it twists my balls
Sorry boys, it's all getting nasty with Netrino aka my ex-employer.
After switching the server off last week with no notice they submitted what appears to be a fake abuse ticket to the temporary ISP last night.
Luckily I know someone in management there who was able to intervene.
I'm already suing them (Netrino) for a bunch of other things so we'll just add this to the list.
Chris
Always amazes me what has to go on behind the scenes to keep a site like this running, and it all goes pretty much unnoticed. I guess that's good
as it shows what an excellent job Chris does.
Great job Chris and thanks again for all your effeorts
Sorry to hear about the turmoil with them, I hope you get a favourable result.
Chris would it be feasible to switch over to vBulletin?

Chris,
It's probably way down on you list of priorities but the text on the PayPal Donate page could do with an update. I assume that the funds go to
the right place..

Thanks for getting the site back!
Was at a complete loss without you all...

One priority is to set up an alert system so that people can tell me if there are problems. I had guests over last night so didn't log on after
about 1800, I had no idea that the site was down until this morning!
Chris
Thanks Chris for all your efforts and Thanks to Fozzie aswell
Great site with knowledgeable folks who help newbies and the more experienced alike, Long may it continue

I'd love to, but it would be a massive, massive effort.

Chris, just as a thought - will current contributions cover the cost of transferring the site to a new ISP?
I'm sure most of us would be willing to contribute a bit extra to that end.
BTW how do I find out if I've subscribed in the last year - can't remember if there's an auto reminder?
Regards, Pewe.
My computer was very upset it couldn't get to the site, it and I are now much happier, "confusers" have been trouble since day 1.

Just adding my thanks, it's nights like last night when I realise how much time I spend on LCB forum, I even had to talk to the wife!!!
Many thanks!
£200 a month!!! Jeez.
Asides from the obvious, is there anything else that any of us could help with?

just a thought (might be a hassle to set up) could we not have some sort of recurring PayPal donation, nothing too much say £2 a month that way you
get a steadyish monthly income to cover the monthly costs rather than getting donations in fits and starts?
I for one wouldn't hesitate in signing up

Thanks for the hard work.

What a nightmare last night was.... I had the misfortune of ending up on rhocar... What a load of s**t !!! And as for the lotus 7 forum, you
can't get on there without having a code sent through the post.... I had to sit with the wife and watch her crap TV!! Don't do it to me
again..
I've stuck some money in the kitty... It's either that or watch Emmerdale and Eastenders !
Donation happily sent.
I'd have been totally knackered without the knowlege that I've gained on this site.
Thanks to all the gurus on here and especially Chris for making it possible.
Donation sent and as others, thanks for all the hard work put in.
