1000 Days At Our New Site
« on: August 09, 2009, 03:50:02 PM »
I just noticed on my profile, that it has been 1000 days since we got to this new forum, after we were spammed into oblivion around three years ago .

Three years ago...why it seems like yesterday! Where did the time go?
If it goes any faster I won't be able to keep up!

Around the middle of September, 2006, a 'spam bot', got hold of our old forum, and within a few days, there were thousands of spam posts on all of the threads .

We were forced to move a few times, due to being followed by a few persistent 'spam bots' .  

We lost a lot of technical information in the process .
