Calling it quits...

Post by Rep Fan »

As a truck maker goes... I still visit all the boards to see whats happening.

But I guess I'm officially retired now. I still play, but I just don't have the time to devote to the game like I want to. I'm far from dead, just retired.

Phin, you can take my link to my site down for now, if I find my correct back up, I'll holler at you, but since the server switch, I lost my site. If I get it back, I'll shoot ya an email.

I've made all the stuff I wanted to, so it's one of those things where, "I've done it all, so if I die tomorrow, I'll die happy" things, unless a new idea comes to me, for now I cant find my last backup, which sucks. So if I get more than a few hours off in one day and try to re-create the pages all over again, I'll put my site back up, and start building again. Thats why this site rocks, and thank god I uploaded everything I have here, for all to enjoy.

So, hello, and temp... goodbye fellers, I'll be around in the shadows... I didn't wanna have to do it, but I came to the reality that I have no other option.

I still have a few un-finished trucks that may find their way here eventually, but for now, its Kapoot. I'll still be here to complain like I always do about theft and all my other assorted complaints, and to help out the new fellers, but for this minute, I'm in limbo...

No "insert bad word here"? when was your last backup?

Last one I can find was after I made my 70 Ford F100...

I actually made a back up at the beginning of June, "just in case" and now I cant find it, I usually do one every month.

I don't have any backup dates in front of me, and i'm sure what I do have is not the most recent.... but it's a start. We'll upload what we do have then can backtrack and update any missing files later on.

I used to backup slo regularly - until the last password/server change - so there is definitely a good backup around, and I downloaded files just last week so it won't be too bad. Give me a few hours and I'll see what we can come up with.

I thought I was on my own, I didnt know I had anyone watching my back, but thank god...

I thought I was done for... I blame Cope for no warning on this, but then again, I blame Cope for everything possible...

He takes it soooo well... "[insert Cope complaint here]"

we know his defense is coming any minute now... [(-:]

The best defense is a good offense, but I'm too tired to get offensive lol. I had your site, my site, and Mariska's site all on a dvd. The short version is that that dvd is no more. I try not to think about it because I had things on that disc infinitely more important than your . . . whoa, my shift is over. Anyway, you get the point lol.

Glad you'll be back in action sooner rather than later, bud. :)

Awesome bud, thanks a bunch, its good to be home...

Is there a newer back up than this one tho? It shows my last update was on June of 06, and I've made quite a few more all the way up to the beginning of this year.

Nope, I'm good to go, and Mariska (Emma/Whynni) had all her stuff backed up so she's fine. :)

Is there any way I can update my site? I saw there were a few pics missing, on my Reps pages...

If not, we can give it back to that Cope guy and I'll make new pages for the ones that are missing, unless you have some slick new way of making an uploader to update it, I got a few things on my HD that will make a few of the "oddball" fans drool.

Email me Phin, so we can work something out bud. I dont wanna tax yer server if you dont have the room to spare, I'd rather be a burden on Cope, so my site is down more than its up...

Just messing with ya Cope, thats the way it was on the old server anyway. If its cool with you Phin, we can leave it here, but I'd like to have access to it...

LOL "so my site is down more than it's up". Yeah, those were dark times for sure, but our new server is rock-solid, thank goodness. Anyway, let me know what you're going to do, bud.

If I can get an FTP I can understand, I'll move it back, but the one I'm used to using was easy, all the ones out now, make me feel like a retard...

My old one was made in 95, and I liked it, but it wont log into yer new server Copey, so I gotta find one I like and can use, and I will once again invade your space.
