Server Crash

[Fooby]

Sorry Fooby, I've only just noticed your post.  I'll have to read it back a few times to understand all of the detail.  I think the gist of it, that it that technically it's a big challenge to make the necessary changes to open the forum to new members again.  There definitely has to be a balance between reward & return & there's no point you putting in dozens of hours of work for what will probably be minimal traffic on the forum.  Certainly time to draw a line under the idea of new members.

If you need a contribution financially in order to keep the forum going a bit longer as an archive I'd be happy to contribute.  Drop me a PM if necessary.  But that's not the only consideration - your time has to be taken in to account & at the end of the day, noone can expect you to invest that in a relatively dead forum.  It's fair for you to choose when to call an end to it ...I certainly won't judge that decision.

Just seen this mate, do you have my number? gimme a hollar and lets chat about options. I dont require any money, but thank you kindly for your offer.  If not ill drop you my number in PM and we can have a chat
