With all the "ex members" it certainly does look like his site!  ;D  

All we need is an obsequious member named "Craig" to be the "Ed McMann" of the site and pepper every post with butt kissing drival.  ;D

Did it get fixed by simply chopping out all threads with a recent reply? The 50+ page thread in the dead horse section about the Spa Deceptionist seems to have dissappeared completely.

Kind of like surgery in the Civil War?

"You have a bullet wound soldier. We're going to saw off your leg at the thigh to be sure we've got it taken care of and you'll be up and hobbling in no time. Want some whiskey?"

220, 221, whatever it takes!

Oh man, that sux if that thread was blown away - so much of his insane BS was documented and laughed about in there.
 

Can the curse of the Red Sweater effect internet message forums??!?!?!?   ;D

Booga booga.

Here is the story.

Last night, when daily backups happen, someone/somewhere posted a message at right fraction of a second to mess up the forums.  Pretty amazing actually.

It appears that our faithful webmaster has fixed everything.  Thanks Peter!

Let us know if you find more problems.

Another update:

The ex member thing is only cosmetic(people only look banned but are not) at this point and will work itself out as time goes on.  Our webmaster had to mess with a whole lot of stuff and this is one of the by-products.

Sorry for the trouble folks.  One day we are going to switch to a forum that is actually dependable...

Good one.  This happened while I was at work, so I can safely say it wasn't me.
