Hey everyone, not the case at all. We have been working bringing a newer version of our forum with all the old content archived for sometime. The problem started when users had problems posting and we had issues with recovering emails and logging in. Than I was getting locked out as well and for the longest time could only perform admin tasks on one computer it was already logged in on. The message on the support side has been our forum platform was incompatible with the updates our service provider made with our site
The long and the short of it is as we speak Claire my operations manager and myself have been working to recover the old forum with ALL of its content as an archived resource.
Our plan is to bring it back and have the original atmosphere we had when we first started the forum.
In general the main focus has been to keep production moving during the continued struggles of COVID-19. We are still moving forward and working to continue producing during the supply chain crisis. So far my current team has done some amazing things during these difficult times and I think we are going to see more good things including our new forum in the not too distant future. :)
Thanks all and hope this cleared up some questions/concerns.
