The TerranBBS Backup Forums
As users of TerranBBS know, the board has been having some problems, and is often down due to use of too many resources. Since most of you came from Trek Today, I have a contingency plan:
If you go to TerranBBS and find that the board is down, you may use the TerranBBS Backup forums I have just created to post and chat. This is a temporary measure until Wraith and the admins of Terran can sort out the new UBB forums and/or get Terran running well again; the TerranBBS Policy applies in these forums rather than the Wolf and Firkin policy.
If the admins of Terran would prefer me not to do this, I am happy to remove the forums... it's just somewhere to chat when you can't get to Terran.
TerranBBS might want to consider using ezBoard again or using another hosted service so the servers would be more reliable. The CSC would probably be $30 or so (maybe more), but running your own server with UBB might be pricey if not unreliable. Christian at TrekBBS has so many costs, that he has needed to use popups in Trek Nation.

Re: The TerranBBS Backup Forums
Just heard... server's gone until Wraith can sort it out, and it isn't just renewing the file; everything's locked out.
Re: The TerranBBS Backup Forums
Thats true, but it's being worked on. no real time scale as yet, but hopefully it will be back soon. It is being looked into.
sorry guys. But when it comes back it will be much more stable. Hang in there.
Well...in the mean time, THANK YOU for the backup!
(sigh) Gee, I hope we don't loose the Renesance story...
The strange thing is, with all of the traffic that the Terran BBS pulled in, you'd thing SOMEPLACE would host it for free just based on volume! I guess the web's changed a bit since the days when "hits are king".

Here's to Pon Farr, when Vulcans go too far.
A gang of us has been tearing up another bbs ( spacedock)during this night. I wish I had been here looking in... *kill me now*
Anyway. MR TOAST. I am happy to inform you that we have secured a copy of the entire Renaissance-thread. We will continue our mission. *dramatic pause*
And now I bid you goodnight, and pleasant camping. See you tomorrow!
Re: Hi
I am alive also. However I might not be around much till the board comes back up.
Please everyone make a donation. I know it is a bad time for the wallet but any change no matter how much it is soon adds up when a lot of people give.
So stop your whinging and give.
