.... yeah.. i'd rather stick to a forum.. like Joe said.. he didn't drag me here.. he didn't ask me to come here.. but.. @VaporJoes and @TygerTyger and @Whiskey and @5150sick and Uncle and even Time and Freemind.. they make me happy when i see them.. I like sharing info, news and recipes.. and even cracking the odd joke every now and then...

Aw Sweetie, it makes me smile to see you here as well. Sorry to hear you're deaing with so much right now, and hope things start looking up ASAP.

Thanks for your kind words and support!

And......................

BOOGER

See.. Uncle!! :D lol Booger!! :rolleyes:

Sorry to hear about the drama your going through.

Things that are created with bad tactics never work out. There is no vision, direction, or purpose.

All is looking up.. promise.. I'd say so if it wasn't in other ways ;) Smoky is very happy for today and super busy..
I need bottles and labels and note cards, the professional ones.. markers and pens and.. lol.. busy!! :)

Aw Sweetie, it makes me smile to see you here as well. Sorry to hear you're deaing with so much right now, and hope things start looking up ASAP.

Not sure.. you are a new one.. lol.. yes.. appreciation is the key.. sometimes we just dont know how well we have things..
and it might take a step back to show us.. then we do the baby steps again.. ;)

cuz Life goes on.. :)

Think of it as a bulldozer with really awesome rims, leather seats, and a killer sound system.

Basically bulldozing in style..
Joe, bulldozers don't have wheels. They have sprockets and tracks. :)

But a bulldozer is still SLOW. :D

damn, he is??

well.. how about that! Next!!

oh and while i am at it.. I did get a pm from a certain someone, to "come to the other side.."

and well.. like i told them when I got there.. I really do not!! Have the time to bounce from one site to the other..
all my friends are here.. all my posts and my recipes.. yeps.. are here.. i told them so just yesterday..

and then... mmmmm.. i get this lovely little nugget in my mail today:

but dude... seriously? I gota activate my account every day?? @InMyImage ??

yeah.. i'd rather stick to a forum.. like Joe said.. he didn't drag me here.. he didn't ask me to come here..
but.. @VaporJoes and @TygerTyger and @Whiskey and @5150sick and Uncle and even Time and Freemind..
they make me happy when i see them.. I like sharing info, news and recipes.. and even cracking the odd joke every now and then..

is VU making money off me?? if the site does.. then good.. I have supported a cause.. I have supported my friends..
and I can tell you, if the site is, it's not much.. but.. i give where and when i can, and that is good enough for me..

I dont know.. I do have friends that left.. but to be pissed cuz of downtime on a site?? don't you guys have lives??

Like i said over there.. I broke up with one current boyfriend.. I lost my ex a couple weeks ago.. in fact.. the first day of Slam..
because he committed suicide. that is why i had to go home early.. I volunteered this bit.. normally, i do not share about my life..
no where on line.. but i am happy I am here, and this is where i call home..

so if you guys want to stay over there, and peep in, or come back.. up to you.. but i really do not have time to bounce sites like this..

I am sorry.. <3 you all.. peace out..
Wow, Smoky. So sorry you are dealing with that heavy, heavy stuff. Amazed and impressed you can keep it light and positive in the face of that.

Am I understanding this correctly? People left this forum and started a new invite-only group because the forum went down without warning for a couple of days? Is this correct?!?

Huh. Well that kinda blows my mind. Are any of them still here? I know some people were pissed; is that why they left? Or did they really need a replacement forum during the downtime? They couldn't go without it for a few days? Or maybe it was the uncertainty of VU coming back online again? I mean... I don't have a lot of experience with forums, but the downtime didn't faze me at all. I just thought, "Stupid friggin internet crap. I'll try again tomorrow."

Ok, here is what really happened.

Joe and all the Admins and Mods went off and had a huge party funded by the Trillions of Dollars he is making off of this forum.

Since I was unable to attend (mostly because they did not want me to embarrass them) they gave me the keys to the kingdom with full admin powers and I freaking crashed the site within the first hour after I signed on.

End of mystery.

ok i have read the past few pages and would like to hand out my personal thanks to a few posters @VaporJoes first and foremost @5150sick @trolls.

what amazes me is that in the whole thread meaning the first page no one came up with the most likely reason why the site was down and simply wanted to bitch at joe for taking it down. and i can say something like that did in fact happen over at ECF how can i say this.

i used to be an admin there so i know. it has happened.

even without my status as staff i know if a site is down it is for very limited reason some reason include.
1.failure to pay hosting or dns bills. and since the deals site did not go down i can conclude this was not the case.
2.system maintenance beyond the control of the site admin. in which case blame the hosting company
3.outside influence

You forgot the Invasion of the IntelliNewts which took over the hosting data center and held it hostage for a hundred kilograms of mealworms and an autographed nude photo of Christine Aguilara holding a Cantaloupe.

Just a thought but maybe it had something to do with the badges coming of for all members, didn't that happen right before it "went down"....

The IntelliNewts know, an autographed nude photo of Christine Aguilara holding a Cantaloupe will power their planet for a hundred years.
