• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Good job on the server switch Rich!

It wasn't me. That security guy knows his stuff. If it were me doing it, we would STILL be down.

I'm hiring him to manage my server. I need someone like him keeping the server secure and taking care of server level problems. My programmer will be taking care of the actual vBulletin code. So hopefully problems with hackers will be a thing of the past. Oh, I do expect to have more intrusions here and there, but this security guy seems to know how to send them packing in pretty short order.
 
Rich have your guys take care of these 3 existing issues with the red X's to tighten things up a bit more. I'm also going to PM you a few helpful links to run some test yourself.
