Is this thing still on?

[cajun31]

I haven't been able to login since last fall. Finally messed with it today and was able to work around to get in. Any updates?

Really sorry the fellow helping with this is having personal issues. With that said it’s almost March and there’s nothing different. Is it possible to move on and thank him for his time? People losing interest, when it gets to a certain point it won’t come back.

Yeah..that is my concern too..We have to wait on some poor soul to get his personal life together...Personally I am skeptical about donating money when crap like this happens...so I have adopted a wait and see attitude.

Enough questions being asked on Facebook to indicate there is a NEED for the expertise of this site. If the issue of signing up new members can be resolved i expect a huge resurgence of interest in this site.

I've read complaints on on of the XS Facebook pages that they were unable to join here. Any way sorry to see this happening.

TC had posted this update dated 2/11/19 on the other thread following the .com upgrade project:
…… but further posts kind of buried it

Hey folks,

Here is latest reply from the Database GURU/IT guy who's involved with handling the majority of the workload for the upgrade. It's kind of technical jargon that I'm not totally knowledgeable about, but I'm sure some of you IT guys will understand. JP is the Owner/Webmaster, you know me, and Mike is the Database Guru. Yes BEN, apparently we do have lives outside of XS11.com and looks like it's going to POT for Mike, so I can understand what happened during the Holidays and such. I hope he doesn't mind me posting this from his EMAIL reply to me! I've removed all email addresses/last names and such, so it's fairly anonymous for him at least.

And since the site is broken beyond my capabilities, that's partly why I've taken a short sabbatical from the site UNTIL the upgrade gets done, I can't do anything ADMINISTRATIVELY at all right now, I can't fix forgotten passwords, logins, register new members, etc. The ADMIN section is also hosed, so right now "we" are just floundering until the upgrade can get done. Sorry I can't do anymore.
T.C.

"quote" Hey TC,

I dropped the ball. I learned a divorce is in my future this year. Thus I have not been *thinking straight*...
I will revisit setting up the upgraded site in the near future. Perhaps that will be a good diversion.
I keep looking at the 30 years of "stuff" I have accumulated and it is daunting.
Since I am unemployed I am researching where I want to live and subsequently work a few more years.
Selling the house here will be a windfall but the cost of living in the Silicon Valley is ridiculous.
This may be my ticket out to free America!

Hey there Mike,

I saw this last email from you to JP and his reply, could see/read the Encredulity in your post regarding no need for "testing" of the upgrade. Just wondering if you've thrown up your hands in disgust or what?

I haven't been on the OLD site for over a month, just got a FB plea from one of the members asking what's happening, that they/we thought we were just a few weeks away from performing/installing the upgrade, and then in their eyes nothing has happened since??

Just wondering?

Ahh I would call that staging - which would/could be promoted to production or be the final code line used in a production upgrade.

Thanks for the update.
What exactly is a Q environment?

For me to log in, I have to enter my UN and PW, check the box, enter. The next screen is the error message. I use the back arrow to get back to the login screen. I then refresh and suddenly I am logged in. Who is ever going to figure that out?


So Phil, you are correct. There is definitely a seizure of the muffler bearing and it is affecting the electrical circuit in the carburetors. Not to mention reduced MPG!

My exact the login procedure as well. Come on guys, let us know if the money still wasn’t enough to do what needed done. I’d rather pitch in more money and have a workable site and a lot of other guys would too. Come on and keep us informed.

That is my exact login procedure as well. Come on guys, do we need more money? Many guys have pitched in a little here, little there, if we need more just say so and let guys pitch in if or when they want to.

I know what you mean, Mike. It's tempting to use the 'net but I don't miss television enough to hook up free teevee. I mean, there's lint that needs to be picked off the dogs and I should rearrange my sock drawer.....

Brant, I'm so glad you and Anita got to ride. Nanuk's a beast and I had fun showing her off too!

[motoman]

Yep, it's all better now and runs great so I'm probably going to sell it.

Decent option Scott. Well, at least wife and I both got a ride on it last fall when you were here overnite returning home from the Co. Rally in Gunnison.

No More TV Box

Meh, I don't need to replace it, I have the XJ and it starts with one kick every time. Columbo will eventually get back on the road but haven't been in the 'mood' to work on anything.

Heck, I haven't been on Farcebook for several months so it's been really quiet and peaceful for a long time now. We turned in the cable tv box last summer but kept internet so except for weather and a few bits here and there when I was out on the on the road I haven't watched television since the beginning of September. Apparently, the world has not stopped.

Hi Scott, We did the same thing here several months ago. Happy! Happy! Happy! AT&T - not so happy. Went to ROKU (free) TV. And the world has not ended here either.

Glad you got your Hardley straightened out.

Hi Scott,
Nanuk has not been the happiest or luckiest motorcycle for you. Hopefully it will smarten up and ride right for the next owner.
What will you replace it with?

Did that Harley get sorted out?

It's been a while since I checked the site but I still have log-on problems and I get the "database error" page. I click the Forum shortcut in the Favorites shortcut and it's all good.

I got the confirmation from the Iron Horse for 2019. I haven't had a car for over a decade now so I've been riding my XJ a lot.

After I got home from the road trip back east, the Harley went in the shop until just after Christmas to get repaired after I got run over at a gas station in Des Moines. Fortunately, it was still rideable so I made it home and the young lady that hit me had insurance. It was a little over $3k in parts and labor but didn't cost me anything but a long wait.
