It is pretty annoying. I actually went to the GTO forum for a while while this one was down. However, I can somewhat understand it considering this site gets way more traffic than the others.

Which other site? Stangnet? I still haven't been over there more than once. I'll go over to 2005stang.com, I've only seen a few TMS'ers migrate over there.

Cut these guys some slack man....

This is the first truly "grown-up" Mustang related board I've been able to find.. All the others seem to be full of foul-mouthed punks that spew their garbage in every thread..

Brad - Scott and company - I hope all goes well with the new host and I (for one and sure many) are glad you are back up and running again!

Randy, I know what you mean about the other sites. I am glad this one is back up and running. My wife noticed I wasn't sitting at the computer moving posts around so she made me move some furniture. Man, I can't begin to tell you how glad I am this site is working again [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img]

It is just good to see the site back up. I'm in the IT business so I know what it is like to recover from a catastrophic failure. I just hope you guys found a better Service Provider.

Now I just need to get my profile rebuilt.

Yeah. I will agree that downtime is regrettable but this is the best forum for the 2005+ Mustangs that I have been on. (I can't speak to the other era Mustangs represented here.)

So keep up the good work and don't let these hiccups get you down!

With all due respect, that is one of the things I like least about TMS. Waaaaaay too many subforums, and waaaaaay too much moving of threads. I'll still frequent the GT Performance section on a regular basis (well, when I can log on anyway), but for serious performance and technical info there are better forums.

Don,

The subforums will always be a controversy

I check out as many other forums as I can, just to get ideas of things to do, etc. With all the diverse interests in the S197, if it wasn't broken down it would be chaos IMO. The format at moduarfords works because the the interest seems so much more focussed on performance and drag racing.

Understood... [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumb.gif[/img]

For the record, I'm not trying to be an jerk here, just voicing my thoughts. And BTW, I like your "Top 10" thread idea so much, I'm seriously thinking of being a copycat and doing a variation of it myself. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen.gif[/img]
