What happened to the other Forum?

[Cat Woman]

Hi, Ive changed my user name from D*ck&Di to Catwoman, which is more appropriate.
What happened with the other Forum?
I had been having a look each day waiting for it to come back on.
DJD sent me an email to let me know about this one.
There must be loads of people who dont realise theres another Forum up and running.:(
Theres important posts like The Fiascio of the Port Royal dogs?
Anyone know the latest news?
So we all start again with everything ???

The old database is in cyberspace somewhere so we are trying to keep the old Forum going.

All the mods and Admin have worked their socks of all day to get a semblence of the great Forum we all know.

The naughty word sorter has yet to be sorted, at the mo it is still being modified as we were receiving some very naughty words

Please bear with us, we have all done a long day today but it will be worth it in the end.

BTW. Welcome back to the Forum...

[Vortex Wake]

It went **** up and landed on its ****

[slodgedad]

It went tits up

Don't write it off. Hopefully the old database will be available soon.

I, for one, fervently hope so. Its all down to the owner of the .com database.

[Tinkabel]

So we're all Newbies ;)

Yeah we're all newbies again, welcome back though and hopefully some of the more important older posts will be merged eventually or we can start them again.

[Cat Woman]

I hope they manage to get all the old information back, it was so useful to so many people.
It would be such a shame to lose everything.
Theres some stuff now I would like to look up, but can't.:(
I know you are all trying your best, good luck & fingers crossed.:)
Sharon.

[slodgedad]

I absolutely thrilled that so many old members have actually remembered and found the info and posted some of the old thread content.

A FORUM IS IT'S MEMBERS. NOT AN OWNERS.

God, I love you guys.

(Probably get the sack now)....(It won't break my record though)..:eyebrows::eyebrows::eyebrows:

I am really happy this forum has emerged. It is upsetting though when you think of the time it took us all to build that wealth of info, and now its gone (for now at least). I had about 3500 posts I think, I know many members had far more. All the stuff Kirsty put on about getting your kids into school, when you think of the hours we all put into it, in varying degrees, its a bit deflating. However, onwards and upwards as they say, no use crying over spilled milk.

The amount of time everyone had already spent on providing the information is one of the reasons we have all been hanging on hoping the forum wasn´t going to disappear. This rescue has given me a boost as I felt we had been working to no avail for many months. Some of the lost info we are being able to repost as we can trawl through the internet (over time) and grab it back. I am looking at trying to gather as much of the information from the education links in particular, and have managed to sticky a few headings ready to gather and post fresh information. Let me know if there are any headings that you would like to see there.

the past is history,the futures a mystery,the time is now.

That is important, if you think it can be done. After all, the forum is first and foremost an information site for visitors, or people thinking of moving to Tenerife. It is sad when you consider the wealth of information that has been lost.
Health care, advice about property purchase, information for job seekers, schooling, ways of dealing with "officialdom" and red tape..they are all very important subjects for anyone thinking of moving to Tenerife.
Advice on places of interest, restaurants and bars etc. are of less importance and can grow with the thread. Of course, that's all assuming we don't get the old forum back in it's original state.

One very important person we really need to have back on here is Goldenmaniac so, if anyone knows her personally it would be good to contact her!

[Apollo]

Il drop her a line and send her this link :)

[Hughsyb]

So nice to be back with my Canarian friends! :cheer:

It's great that there are people willing to give up their time to get things back up and running again. :)

However, my own feeling is that the old forum was sabotaged by some on the Holiday Lettings thread who could see things weren't going the way they anticipated and needed a quick delete to save egg on face! ;)
