I like it too. On the admin side, it's much easier to use then this one, and has a lot more features. I have been messing around with it today, and moved our users and all of our info over to it on another database. It's pretty fast, and the import went well. I think over time it's going to be the way to go. So far, so good. A lot more testing to do though.

Kinda like PBS and their annual fund drive eh?

Yeah, but the DTR isn't leeching off the American taxpayer, so I don't mind helping out. PBS gets too much of my money already.

Re:Christmas donations for a much needed new server
I have really enjoyed this site,it has been so helpfull and I have personaly seen it save alot of people some hard earned cash,who can complain about that?? I will help,and hope all others do too. So I have a question,would it be out of line if the DTR sent every member a email explaining the need,I would not think that would be out of line,as not all of the members use it as much as some and they might not have the info for the need.If many hands make light work maybe this will fly real fast and get a new server up faster for the benefit of all who do use this site. Goodkluck Rick I really appreciate the fact that this is a clean site as so many are chock full of foul languageporn and the unbiased opinions of the other brands do not get bashed and made to resent looking here and talking about thier truck as compared to the cummins. Thanks agian for a clean place. Rick

Re:Christmas donations for a much needed new server
I will be sending my money in on Monday guys. My decision to go back to school doesnt leave much extra for my wife and I but I will certainly send what I can.
I would like to take a minute and express my admiration for Jack and the moderators of this site. Many people do not realize the expense of the software and equipment needed to run a site of this size. Previously I was one of the admins for a worldwide legal firm and know very well how expensive this can be not only for equipment and software but also the bandwith it takes to keep a site like this running smoothly. Thanks again Jack for such a great site!!

It's my pot and I'll stir it if I want to. If you're not careful, I'll stir your's as well!
Re:Christmas donations for a much needed new server
I too agree that everyone who has a hand in running this site is doing a fantastic job. A big hand also to the members with their expert advice, opinions and humor. No kidding! (pun intended) This site has given me a lot of pleasure and answered my many technical questions It is very much appreciated that this site is run cleanly and that I can show any of my family or friends anything here without being embarrassed. Other sites I have looked at do not appear to have any restrictions on bad language, abuse of members or brand bashing. Please keep up the good work. Looking forward to soon seeing the new server and software in place.
My cheque will be heading north next week. ( I never mail anything from here and look for folks heading north to mail it in the US)

Good job folks, keep the checks coming. Like I said before, no matter how small the donation, every penny helps so give what you can spare so Jack can keep growing the site and thanks.
