Title: What is this?
Post by: JB on May 04, 2017, 10:31:08 AM
I had to register. Is this legit? I had created a Facebook page called Friends of Mauisun, which has 20 something likes. We may
 be able to get some of the crew back, LOL

Yes! This is completely legitimate. After quite a lot of.. issues.. the Living Room is back!

I will be working on attempting to pull member lists and old topics to import back in but additional help to restore/recreate this board into it's former glory would be much appreciated!

Yep got the FB message.

Cut all the forums down to a couple of sections and probably leave a lot of the messages there, things have changed a lot since way back 17ish years ago.
 :o

Oh and get a mobile/handy/cell phone skin.

Yep!

There's a lot more work to be done. Unfortunately there are a few VBB issues (Multiple installations, Double/triple directories, quite a few missing HTML/PHP files, etc) that I'm trying to resolve to be able to pull as much as I can. Currently only the latest posts under each thread is available without errors based off a recreated index file but I'm still having issues being able to actually open a topic.

Thank you for the suggestions! I'll be speaking with David soon to see what he would like to do with the board in terms of the missing posts, member list (Over 97,000) and themes. Any feedback is absolutely welcome and if anyone happens to be close to other previous users, please let them know that David looks forward to having the board bustling as it used to.

Vbb board had destabilized so pulled it down to fix all the errors. Will use this new board until everything fixed. Can transport a lot of vbb stuff to this board for now. Sorry about having to register again. Couldn't transport the member base yet.

Welcome home to everyone. I miss the comraderie we had over the years and decade since this site was created...

Hello again, everyone!
It's been a loooong time...Last time I logged on to the old site about 1-2 months ago, only the main forum page was up.
Title: Re: What is this?
Post by: suntzu on May 08, 2017, 05:14:12 AM
big decisions to make regarding importing... a lot of content that can create interest, but a lot outdated too... members lists good idea, but need to be careful with that too as i do remember some troublemakers coming here getting all political and militant and stuff like that.

anyhows i registered using same name and email so everything cross references that im legit :)

hope we can chat and share and get some good acticity in the different sections... speaking of which maybe theres no need for quite so many sections, but i leave that up to admin team to decide :)

Wow! It's great to hear some old voices. Anything I can do to help, let me know. I'm not much good on the technical workings, but I can make coffee, and as time goes on maybe help with content. I WILL check in on a regular basis to see how things are going. Hell, I've been ready for something new to come along for some time.

Wow, bunch of regular members com the day popping back in. Thanks to all for the return.
Let's swap stories of how everyone's life is going.

I retired 2 years ago and gave up drag racing. I now dedicate most of my spare time to bowling of all things. :)  I compete at the local level, but I am representing at the USBC Nationals in Vegas in another month or so. I still have my turbo Hayabusa and the Blackbird and I still hate politicians of every party. :)  We adopted another child about 6 years ago (she is now 13) and boy does she keep things interesting. The wife and I are planning to relocate to Belize when she graduates. It is nice to see so many familiar names from the past. I will try to become as active as I used to be. I have missed my conversations with Spiritus and Bocephus. :)

Good to see you again my old friend. Been at least 5 years. I got so busy with kids and all of our businesses that I just drifted away myself for a bit. Looking forward to getting all the old gang together. We can all do a lot to help each other in the coming years.

I'm approaching retirement age fast. Trying to make up for my foolishness of not saving when I should have and could have. Been traveling a lot, working on military helicopters. In the last 7 years, I've been to Germany twice, Bahrain, Kuwait twice, Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia,Egypt, and am currently in South Korea. Untold US bases in the states.  I do have a goal, which involves a small log cabin in a very rural area,with the land already bought, loaded with wildlife.

Fluffy, still playing AE?

Nope stopped a long time ago
Though they till send update and new servers.

To much time is needed in it and I don't want to give it the time

HI dude!

Yep :-)
Always kept an eye on here and popped in at least once a year.
Nope much happened an the forum was getting hard to use, so read the bit at the top.

Now I know not too much about newer stuff on PC, it's all the same just slightly different.  I do miss a bit of 'geek' on the old intricacies of the hardware.
Title: Re: What is this?
Post by: Mauisun on May 12, 2017, 06:03:13 PM
I'm definitely going to be back to being active here. A new generation has grown up since we were all very active on here.

Let's catch-up with the life changes to all of us.

Post by: Mauisun on May 14, 2017, 03:06:11 PM
Todd Mack too?

I am so totally stoked Adam convinced me to start over and breathe new life into old friends.

Perhaps we will start over with this board, add a lot of modules with no hacks, build up and have fun.

At this stage in my life there is a lot I can do to help others so this is going to be extremely enjoyable for me.

Hello y'all ... I have been checking occasionally to see if the site was up.   Glad to see the lights are on... yea!
I was able to get right in, so the user list must have been imported okay.

Will get everyone’s thoughts on condensing a lot of the old sections no one uses. We can streamline the site quite a bit. Keep it lean and mean and back to having fun together and overall just hanging out. Makes life simple.
