    Re: We're moving - need advice and help

    Anyone thought of contacting John at Audio Circle? The ?circle? format works great, the audience would get bigger and there is strength in numbers. Costs would also be reasonable. The users there are mostly well behaved and you of course get your own ?moderator? status in case someone crosses the civil responsibility line.

    Hope everything works out. I really enjoy the folks here but have never liked the host board format and technical glitches.

    Blessings,
    NickD

    What does "sell the board" mean? Our Content? Servers? Software/installation?

    If that means anything other than our contents... which technically he may own? I think this is a terrible idea. This board is broken, and has been broken even after "fixes" and upgrades. Hoping that we could run the same board better is not a good idea.

    It does not surprise me at all that he is willing to sell... This board is like a clapped out retired school bus being used by a underfunded non-profit... the mission/people may be a good one, but the bus is still a pile of crap.

    Well, my understanding is that we would be buying JUST our part of HB. Nothing else.

    Of course, for now, it's running well, but I want to find a way to archive the data, just in case, and look for a way to have a permanent - it's OURS - home.

    Todd I have some more answers so I need to call you to discuss.

    Site seems to be working well again and this was the problem.
    Steven said the resource limits for each site were unbalanced and HB getting the short end of the stick.He has reset all sites to the same so should prevent that from happening again.. Hopefully !!! So the time-outs should not happen again.
