Sorry about the board being down; I didn't have time to devote to it for awhile.

We are back up for now, but we will see how long. This is pretty outdated software, and the problems are worsening, and I don't have the current intiative to replace it all.

So, enjoy it while it is here, for those of you who come back !

Scar

Thanks for the update, I was wondering if it was coming back.

Hey Scott, glad to see Scaratings is back up. I did not realize that the phpbb software was something that you had to deal with in terms of being seriously outdated. I assumed it was updated from time to time by php. Guess I don't know anything about it.

Hope you can keep it going for awhile. Is there another board software product to easily switch to?

Thanks for all the time spent on this.

Glad we are back!

I have my own board that I use this company for and haven't had any problems. I just assumed it was a good little spot on the Internet. I'll have to keep my eyes open for problems.

We are running on version 3.0.8, which is 6 releases behind.

I have to do the updates now myself, and unfortunately my job takes too much of my time lately.

Making exception for X-TRAIN and myself, the readers of these pages are a fairly sophisticated bunch, tech-savvy and perhaps less burdened by obligation than is SCAR. Is there anyone else who views SCAR's present misfortune as a plea for help, and could PM him with the offer of expert assistance?

I'm afraid I'm an exception, too, but I support your idea. If upgrading would incur some sort of cost, I would be happy to chip in for it.

I was actually pretty damn worried. I tried posting on the FB page calling for you guys but I don't think anyone replied. If we keep using this for a while, we should have a backup meeting place until something permanent is established.

If nothing else I could whip up a subreddit or something, if you guys are interested.

I would hate to lose this community. Unfortunately, I don't have the knowledge to help. But I could help if money is an issue.

No, money is not an issue but thanks for the comment.

Time is my critical resource.
