Title: Thank you for your patience
Post by: mrbandit on February 09, 2021, 12:23:03 PM
Just to give you a quick update.  I am working with my host to get a new server built out.  Thank you to everyone who has offered to help out financially and to those that have already donated to the cause.  I'm hoping to have it completed by the end of the week.  When that happens I'm going to upgrade the forum to the latest and greatest and try to implement some of the things we used to have like attachments, etc...

Thanks for the update!

This is great news!

As mentioned before, we really appreciate everything you have done and continue to do.

Since nothing is for free, I hope the entire TAC community helps out.

I love this site and thanks for the update Mike! I came to find information and tips when I restored my 1976 TA, but stayed for this community of many I call friends.

This site is great and I wanted to start a chain of contributions to the site. By no means should anyone feel an obligation to contribute, but so many have mentioned the willingness to contribute, so I wanted to get the ball rolling.

Just sent in my donation. Thank you Mike for all that you do!!

Thanks so much for your efforts.
 I know you've heard this before, but here it is once again...I don't know if I could've completed the restoration of my '81 Turbo TA without all the information and input from friends I've made here.  The project itself, and now the completed car has brought me a lot of joy over the past few years.  Especially in the ridiculous one that we've just recently made it through.
So you, (MrBandit) have been responsible for bringing some joy and happiness into the world!  Nice job!

  I greatly appreciate your time and effort. 
Thank you.

Click the Big Enos link at the bottom and it will take you to PayPal.

FYI - I just contributed via the Big Enos link and got an error message at the end of the transaction.
I did get a PayPal receipt so I'm assuming it went through but it would be good to get a confirmation.

Thank you to everyone for your support, as it went a long way towards procuring the server.  Your generosity is humbling.  I'm going to continue to work on the backup data, and the DB team is as well.  The new server and site migration will take place in the next 5-10 days.

Uh oh. It looks like a bunch of more recent content disappeared from some of the longer threads in the Lobby ...

Yes, I think something happened to posts after 2/12 and a few days ago. My post in projects disappeared.

Keep the faith folks!
