Upgraded CsC website and opportunity to support CsC with a one-time donation!

[Awesys]

Welcome to the new home of Club smart Car!

 

We have updated the forum software so that it is on the latest version and has security features such as HTTPS:// which is now the industry standard. We hope you will also notice faster performance.

 

If you notice anything not working correctly or if you have any questions, please comment in this thread.

 

This step is important for the continuity of this community. We are very grateful to those who have graciously run the website in the past, and we hope to keep Club smart Car going into the future.

Thanks to Keith Hebert the guitar god too.

Thanks to all the people that are making this happen.

Thanks to everyone for updating the site.  I have been a member since 2006 and this is the first time I have been able to log in for over a month.  I am a happy camper.

[Willys]

Thanks to the folks behind the scenes to make this possible.....I was very worried that if this hadn't happened the site was doing the way of the DO-DO.....unfortunately.
Things seem faster and crisper.  I can live with a few adds to generate some most useful funds to keep the site alive.  Christ if anyone can operate on FB or YouTube you can deal with a few adds here also....imho.

Again a big thanks to those who spent their hard earned time to get this done....hip hip.....


I have noticed I'm still a newbie....lol.

Speaking of costs - we may or may not be able to cover all costs with the google ads. More on that later. But in reality, it might take 15 people throwing in $25 each to cover us for a year... so prepare for that "huge" ask....  We have some lump sum costs incurred and pending right now.

I’m in for $25 if you need it.  The site has saved me that many times over throughout the years.

thank you root admin and directors, this site is a staple for me while having my morning coffee. I'll be there when you need to pass the hat.

 

[Willys]

I too will help fill the hat when the time comes.....as stated above, this site has saved me many times what you suggested....and I will argue it has saved almost everyone who joins the site the same...

Apparently the transfer via PayPal will be received the following day (congestion at the border...) and there's a small fee for the sender.  🙂

Thank you all for your generosity!

Hello, just a note, I've noticed that the speed once I click a topic, has slowed down in the past few weeks, similar to the speeds we had prior to getting the new web host.  any comment?  Also this morning I got a 503 error when trying to get into my mail.

later,

mas

[Willys]

I also have had the 503 message which kicks me out and I have to re-open the site....?  Hope this is just a glitch and nothing major..?

 

[MikeT]

Same, super slow to load (think 1998 dial up) and 503 errors. Last week, at least, This AM it's fine.
