This is sooo much better than the old OSS site. Shame we can transfer the old project threads etc across as I had several bookmark for reference.

Just good to have some contact with the OSS'ers again. Don't do Facebook so it's been a long winter.

So...
Been having a bit of a search and wondering what happened to the old site?
This one is pretty cool (IMHO), any chance of merging all the old info?
Are all the old gang on board or are there "issues"
Whats happened to PP and Mr.**** (Whasshisname? from the netherlands) (Sent him a katana model years ago and wondered if he ever built it!)

Unfortunately it had hosting problems and Simon never got it sorted (other personal commitments)and now i believe there is only limited information left from the old site. Several members did come over but some got piffed with the handling and demise of the old site (false promises of ressurection).

Damn shame... It was criminal that the db wasn't pulled off the old site so the posts there-in could have been saved and incorporated into this site. Letting all that info and knowledge etc.. go to waste was beyond rude, tbh... Regardless of someone's personal commitments or whatever, if ya can't run it, don't run it... But ya can't just kill it... It was OUR forum, OUR information, OUR projects... regardless of who "owned the lease" on the webspace. It should have been backed up better, so it could have been saved.. It should have been saved when people still had the access to the site (even tho the public didn't). It should have been treated with more respect. a lot of people put a LOT of their time and effort into helping others on the original forum and NOBODY has the right to trash all that because they feel like it, or have "other responsibilities" Thats a fecking cop-out, they should have handed it over. /rant off Peace

I miss the old forum. But it was an out dated forum platform, and couldn't be updated (as I remember). I've not been very active here. Maybe it didn't have the same feel, or something. It is a shame that all that information has seemingly been lost. I've been very busy last couple of years, and my GS1000 build has been on hold. But its back on now, so I'll be more active here
