Wouldn't it be nice if the "safe hearing" suppersor bill passed? No more months of waiting and $$$$. 

It is a pointless and dumb bill on all parts. I do not think suppressors should be regulated, but I also think they are 99% pointless. As for select fire being over rated, I do not even know what to say to that. Single fire will put someone down, but will not reliably keep them for firing back. Full auto is good on trained personnel with fire control, select fire works wonders with noobs. Either way, semi-auto is a no go on a fielded weapon. From civilian standpoint who cares. If you want something for self defense use a scatter gun and be done with it. 

So to recap, my grandfathers Colt Python. Sells all day long for 2k now. I have receipt for it from 1958 he paid $89. It's really the only thing I have of his. You propose someone knocks on my door and gives me 89 dollars for it? Yeah, out of my cold dead hand. 

Regulating ammo if its not a real time check I do not have an issue with. A lot of states have cards you need to buy. They do a check once a year. I don't have a problem with that, but all cost a tax payer $$$$

Do the fuzzies have a different exchange rate to the quarter million people plus that will lose their jobs over night? Not saying nothing should be done. Just saying that the issue is complex and anyone who thinks they have the answer is a fool. Ask Australia. 

Why the hell do I get dragged into this? I'll humor you through. What happens in this scenario. Years ago I am given an M16. At the time they were worth about 8k. My grand father paid around 400 for it. Now they are worth ~20k. If the gov does a round up so I get back $400, $8000, or $20000? Do I get cash back or tax credit? You do know there are literally trillions of dollars of firearms out there right?

Will be a few minutes of downtime today and tomorrow. Should all be fairly quick.

Plan on doing a few patches tomorrow so might be some downtime. Should all be under 10 minutes. Had to reboot mail server tonight and rebuilding some of the packages on the server as we speak. This should help with a few of the issues being reported. 

Thank you all for being patient during all of the updates. In the next week or so I should have everything back in working order. Fixing some issues with the Garage and the images now. In the mean time thank you all for being patient. For being so loyal, if you are interested in Gold Membership use the coupon code "loyal". That code will get you 70% off Gold Level Membership. 

It's people!!!

I didn't know suicide was a problem. Most civilized countries sponsor and support it. 

Still working on some of the updates and bugs, but member feedback and garage should be working again now. I have a few more issues to run down with files and bugs, but getting there. If you use the garage, let me know if you have any issues.

Working on Garage and some of the other apps this weekend so there will be a few quick downtimes.

That will let you see how your settings are configured. Other thing to check is make sure they are not being sent to a spam folder.

Just completed some more updates. Let me know via PM if you have any issues.

I have had Facebook and Google+ integration running on here for a while, so I am pretty sure everything is set up and within their TOS. Twitter on the other hand is new, so I would appreciate any help assuring everything is running smoothly. If you make a post that you think would get attention also on FB, twitter, or any of the other social media sites, can you please try the links at the bottom of every post, and report back any issues or feedback you have. Thank you.

Everything critical should be at least working now. Formatting corrections and recounting of members, messages, online all that still have several days left to convert to the new database.

Worth a mention is you can click the quote link in one topic and then reply in a completely different topic and it "should" cross over.

We are back up. Testing now. I'll turn public board back on-line in a few.

Additional planned downtime today Tuesday April 14th from 10:00-12:00 EST.

The forums will be offline Sunday April 12th From 22:00 EST until ~01:00EST April 13th.

Tracking down on error with coupon system. Until I find it coupon code "fifty" is good for 50% off any membership. Note memberships may take up to 24 hours to process...

If anyone wants tickets let me know. Have access to a couple free ones I can send to someone.

Some people asked about it, so here it is. Coupon code "holiday" is good for 33% off any membership.

Do a write on up something? Or ghost ride your car into a tree and video it? That would be cool,

Getting ready to do some updates in the next few weeks and noticed coupon codes were being weird for supporting membership. In an effort to test it here is a coupon for 50% off any membership for the first 5 people. Coupon code: omgzor

Also in the next week or so there will be a few outages. Most should be under 1 hours and hopefully odd hours of night.
