Jack's House

First off Jack, thank you for hosting this frustrating topic. I empathize with everything I've read thus far and am unsure I have anything new to contribute so much as to try and emphasize that Ian wants to get our forum back online. Given why Dreamhost took us offline is the very, very complex rub. If this were just a simple matter of starting a brand new forum from scratch, he would have done it by now. The problem as you all are well aware is that the old forum has far too much old, revered historically valuable content to not try and save. But to do so given how Ian altered the original phpBB software from it's basic programming, well, he's tried to explain some of the details and it went right over my head in two seconds flat and so he's still muddling how to please himself, us and especially Dreamhost. Having said that, the story archive is not only alive and well, but thriving. Better than that, our rudimentary age verification page has not, at least from my point of view prevented our readers from reading and voting at basically the same rates as before AG. Yes, it seemed touch and go for awhile, but I think runs smoothly now. Most of our story hits are more realistic than before in my opinion. Anyway ... feel free to ask me questions if you have any and I'm glad for a chance to contribute to this thread, so thanks again Jack!
