Easy Rusty, you've made a great point and defended your grammar but try to dial it back.

Hey GK, let me clear my throat.

That point Rusty made is echoed by many other members so far in this thread GK, don't be a killjoy, a buzzkill, or a Debbie Downer.

I found your post just to be so thoughtless on so many levels because everyone was so happy to just have the site back on yet you chose to take this moment to piss on the parade. Mind you that you posted it in a thread where I asked nicely for everyone's patience and told everyone what I knew. Then I just find the vibe of the post to be abrasive. This is just scratching the surface.

The website changes in content are over a year old and we are so sick of hearing this shit. If you got something constructive to say or helpful then say it. Otherwise, the whining gets old really quick. The owner is sick of it, the mods are sick of it because we have no control over it.

I'm glad so many other members are sharing a similar view as Rusty.

GK, if you feel slighted of offended by Rusty's post, well so be it. You started this with your unnecessary comments and a little of your own medicine was needed. But enough is enough and this is where the whining and complaining and insults will stop.

Do not use the rep system to insult people GK.

Now back to better things. I still don't know what happened to the website or answers to any of the questions I'm sure all of you have. Something I did learn though is that when members were getting the generic forum page and getting the message:

The Cannabis.com Forums are currently OFF, We are running critical maintenance and upgrading components for a smoother operation ....

that the mods can usually still get into the forums. I bring this up because many of you probably didn't see this thread if you didn't see it on those couple of days back in the middle of January. I've also seen several comments since the site came back up where people rushed to to copy things they really wanted. I'm sure that would scare me too if I was a member and some of the posts were already missing.

I'm sorry this happened as traffic was just beginning to pick back up near the end of 2008 and I really don't have any new answers since I posted this 3 weeks ago.
