View Full Version : The forums back!! Welcome to you all.....
A huge Hi to you all, it’s been a while but the forums back! Well, you know that! There are still some changes to be made and there’s a few things missing that need to be sorted, like the odd forum button! But it works and it’s stable. There’s not a lot more functionality that’s going to be added, some of the things will be spread around the site in other sections, the gallery will return, with all the pictures that it previously had on it, which is more good news. But on the whole, what you see is what you get, it’s a forum for talking about bushcraft and related subjects.
The menu buttons at the top are in preparation for the other sections of the site which will be added as and when.
The whole lot is on a new dedicated server so there’s not going to be any hosts having a moan that we’re getting to busy, it’s not cheap but I think it will solve a lot of the problems that we’ve had in the past few months.
Well, that’s enough from me for now, except for a big thanks to you all for your patience, it’s much appreciated and I hope you enjoy the forum now that it’s back. For those that helped me sort this out, a huge thank you. ;)
Cheers
Tony

Every thousand mile journey has to begin with one step, you took that first step and completed the thousand mile journey. I'm sure there are times that you questioned what you were doing, but I hope the feed back will reasure you all that it's all worth while. Thanks .

Thank you, thank you and thank you once again. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has missed the forum so just wanted to say a big thank you to those who have got the site back up and running with the new format.

A huge round of applause to all involved in getting this great place back together again :D :D :D
You're welcome guys and girls and thanks for the kind words, they do help me think it was worth the slog! There seems to be a few people that have lost their passwords in the move over, I've sorted a few but I expect there will be more, let me know via info@bushcraftuk.net and I'll get them sorted.
Thanks again ;)

Glad to be back! Thanks Tone.
Good to be back here - thanks to Tony for the hard slog!
Finally I'm back home.

Ok, I've finaly got the DNS sorted and the site is established on www.bushcraftuk.com this will be much better for most than using the IP address as I know that some people have problems with that.
Now it's starting to feel right! The badges read right as well ;)

Nice to see the forum back thanks Tony :D
The whole lot is on a new dedicated server so there’s not going to be any hosts having a moan that we’re getting to busy, it’s not cheap but I think it will solve a lot of the problems that we’ve had in the past few months.
As I said elsewhere I get a huge amount out of bushcraftuk. I am interested in supporting it continuing into the future.
Can I ask about the bushcraft skill of maintaining a dedicated server? Is that in a house, office, dedicated computer facility? How about upgrades, expandability, backups, maintenance, skillbase? Does income meet the need for the present and projected into the medium term?
