NEWS Site Back up

[alfixit]

Glad the site is back up. I was afraid it was gone for good.
Good work Joe.

Thanks!

 

[Obo]

I'll be happy to contribute and would be saddened to see the forum going to Facebook.

Already exists.

Thank you sir!

Now the next question. Paypal sent me a message yesterday telling me my regular payment to this site had been cancelled (by this site)! I guess that was an after effect of whatever the hosts did. But I am still shown as a Site Supporter. I will redo my support payment, but others may be affected similarily!

Yeah I thought it was hoe so I canceled everyone because I didn't want anyone paying for something that didn't work

Well darn. I just told my wife that I'd like to go to several events as a farewell tour since the site is no longer a thing........now that's out the window. Take it back down

You don't know how much you miss something until it's gone! Panic over (for now) Russ.

Any chance you found my Alaska thread out there?

Hey Will, we have to go back to Alaska to get our Alaska threads.

All is well with the world as the site is back up.
Happy Easter everyone.
Regards,

I just had a thought... Some people call tomorrow (Sunday) "Easter". Some call it "Resurrection Sunday". Maybe we should mark this day as "Resurrection ST-Owners Day"?

WHILE the ST owners website was wrecked and being towed out of a ditch, me and my bike were doing just fine —riding all over Georgia!
Pics coming soon..

HUGE sigh of relief....

This place is so very important to me. For a number of reasons.

And I'll have nothing to do with Facebook.

Two bottles of cheap wine later my anxiety is somewhat suppressed. This site is my lifeline, it is first thing I check almost every morning. I know I need to get a life. Someone already said it but you don't know what you have until it's gone.
@joe let me know if there is anything I can do to help.

In the unforgettable words of Joni Mitchell, “Don’t it always seem to go that you don’t know what you’ve got ‘til it’s gone? They paved paradise and put up a Facebook page.”
No, wait, that’s not how it goes…

 

[STeve A.]

Well that's a relief, I'm still getting used to my new laptop, thought it was me locked myself out some how

 

[the Ferret]

I don't do Facebook, so it the site ends up going that direction I won't be there.

If it does go to Facebook, I just want to say thanks to everyone on the site that has made it so enjoyable for me that I have been here for 18 years ..... 8 years after I no longer had an ST 1300.

Been to many of the rallies, have played the Cold Weather contest for years, participated in the Mileage Tracker since I joined, and hopefully was able to contribute some back.

Thanks all

Now I was very happy, have been trying to access the site for several days now. I recently received the email from Joe, my request on FB for access is waiting for approval.

But, FB can be a nice channel to communicate on when problems arise using st-owners.com I will read every single post here now, my bike is ready for a test ride

 

[ST Gui]

I hope not.

Likewise.

Joe,
Sorry to see you struggling so much with the web hosting issues. I am just wondering, could you get another hosting company, is it mostly about the coast getting a more dependent and reliable provider? If money is the issue, why not starting a fund raising, I'll be happy to contribute and would be saddened to see the forum going to Facebook.

I completely agree with you here The site already has a solution where you can contribute money, which I already do and many others as far as I have registered while using the forum.

I was afraid it was gone for good.

That never crossed my mind. Things like this have happened before and Mellow has always prevailed.
