Yeah, worrying me too. The last crash in nov of 2003 took an awful lot of good threads and made them unsearchable -- which made them pretty much useless. Worse than that would be that someone deciding it was taking too much time or money to keep it going and just pulled the plug.

Best case scenario is that there was a decision to change hosts and it didn't go quite as smoothly as planned.

I didn't know about the 11/03 crash- I guess that's why I couldn't find the guy who made the performance dampers. Or any info on side and valve covers.

i tried logging on at about 11:30cst new years eve and couldnt get through then either. maybe just the isp died or something??? fspp doesnt have anything post atm about it, and as far as i know azcoupe is still somewhat in the loop with fsp, at least enough to know if something terrible happened.


guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Nope. They've been down for a few days. I hope all the posts weren't lost. There was a great deal of valuable information there. Mark.

surely they'd backup all databases to a local backup off the web server right?
