• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

MODS: Post approval requirement??

Me too. I've posted several times. Most are still stuck waiting for approval. I certainly get the time and effort put in by the admin and mods and appreciate it. But it seems like after waiting one or two approvals (at most) many folks, including me, may just give up and go back to the KTMT Husky thread? If you want to build a site perhaps the bar of admission should be a little lower?

Thanks,

Jon
 
Guys
For the last time. It is Ruwfo and I ....thats it. Owner is MIA for over 2 years. He and he alone has the ability to "move the bar". We are just house sitting...he owns the house. If you want to go to KTMT Husky sight ....be my guest. Really sick and tired of all the "crayon eaters" out there that it is all about them. Read the thread completely before you post away like someone tweets. Couple more of these and I am done Son. The site and the info and the services here are free so bottom line....quit your belly aching.
 
Just a few innocent questions here from someone who only wishes to help.

1.) Is there a plan to try and approach the owner a bit more formally, to try and get transfer of ownership or future intent?

2.) Do we know who issued the domain and which server the site is hosted on?

3.) Is it possible to consult with the software vendor to try and get in?

4.) Is there any plan by the two brave current Admins to try and rescue the site and do they need help with this?

5.) Is the only option to continue as is, until the domain expires, or the server is no longer willing to host and it goes belly-up?
 
Been following this thread...Joe we all appreciate and most understand your situation. You cant go Joe! LOL...Water off a ducks back, delete this thread and keep on keeping on, who gives a s--t if some don't understand or don't read the entire thread, bottom line is were gonna need you soooo..knock it off and stop being so sensitive.

Joe PM me your address ill send you a 6 pack of your favorite beer.
