Glad they are OK.
Haven't seen too many 406 wagons for a while. I think the last I saw was a STDT. Will keep an ear out. The place our son bought his Clio had a Laguna wagon but it's now gone. They have a 2000 V70 for $12k or a 307 HDi for $15k. Happy to pass on details.

Have now found the rest of the AF stuff, so will start a new thread there. Thx HKP.

well, this is most interesting. a WHOIS lookup shows this for www.aussiefrenchcars.com



Domains by Proxy is a service which operates in conjunction with GoDaddy, and essentially allows the registrant details for a website to be hidden from general view. you should see some of the complaints about DBP on discussion forums! all incredibly suspicious in view of the fact that GoDaddy somehow deleted a whole website and its backup.

Just another very good reason not to even associate with it! It's a low ball whichever way you look at it. IMHO it's akin to picking pockets at a car accident.

it certainly is a low ball, and a very odd turn of events besides.

and the site has a few posters on it already i notice...

Yeah, some real comedians on there too I noticed.

funnily enough, i didnt see anything funny there at all. all i saw was something really deeply and pathetically tragic.

as a general comment on life, however, it is so that in times of crisis and turmoil, when people are often left in the position of having to regulate their own behaviour, that the true depth of their character is revealed. for better, or worse.

Hear hear! Alexander couldn't have said it better myself!

hmmm...I might have added "disturbed" to the adjectives though.

Hey Gerry and All,

Sorry to hear about AF being off the air! If there is anything I can do (yeah OK I doubt it) sing out.

Otherwise I'll keep hacking away at the 505's which seem to keep multiplying every time I turn by back

Cheers and all the best getting the old site back
Ben

We don't agree much alexander, but on this I'm with you.

And considering one of the posts there refers to something that I posted on my Facebook page weeks ago points to something a bit personal and sinister.

Pathetic idiots who really need to get a life.

Matt

ok, i take it you are saying the mlb on the 'other' site is not you. so a question to allcomers: are the 'addo', 'pugrambo', and 'doublechevron', on the other site, the same people we know them as?

ta.

I think you would find that they too are the figments of imagination - I'm confident of that.

If you had the means I think you would find all of those posts came from only a couple of IP adresses.

Nah it's not me. Having said that I don't think there is anything underhanded about that forum... My guess is someone has just put a lot of time into setting it up ............... and one of our Aussiefrogs members has tried to play silly buggers by setting themselves up accounts as people that exist on aussiefrogs as soon as they have found it. A bit of harmless fun that's backfired on them bigtime by the look of it.

seeya,
Shane L.
PS: They must be truly insane to want to be em

I don’t know if I should be offended or relieved that someone has not tried to do the "real gamma"........Oh well...

Still in withdrawal, the possibly me, or not....

Thanks for your PM about this Alexander.

I think it's just someone having fun but going to great lengths to do!

Someone called me on Saturday regarding offering space on their server on a social network site. The offer is nice but it doesn't really fit the AF identity very well. How'd you get my mobile number though???

Don't know any more tonight!

Actually its almost flattering.

I wonder who'll they get to play me? Brad Pitt maybe...

And as the fearsome Mr Bell how about...

Alan Rickman (aka. Severus Snape)




And who do we get to play the garrulous but nonetheless lovable Mr Kenfuego?

Kensky would be played by David Suchet.

"Fuegot"

hmmm I think we'll be waiting for Fuegot...

but he might never appear.

And who'll be 'manning' the casting couch, for want of a better expression?



Mike.

i lost my hole car build's as well, and not only on AF, was linked worldwide in other forums..
i be sure you guys will fix it, and do it maybe next time better.. we all do mistakes and learn from it ...

if you start out with nothing, but actually end up with none of it left, is that a bad, or good?

It's all a matter of perspectives, imponderables, and another long word that, momentarily, I can't spell.



Mike.

David seems to have gone AWOL (I think he is in a plane right now) & I have no idea where he got to with the database so I have started from scratch!
One of the big files has been restored for me by powweb & I'm waiting for them to restore 2 others. Hopefully that should be it.
I made the request at 3:15am & they said 24 hours.

Mistareno has applied the normal style to the new vbulletin install on powweb so once the database is working with the really old 2006 version of vbulletin, I will upgrade it so the tables will talk to the new version. Then I simply tell the styled new version to look at the recovered database.

I found a user table from late 2008 on my laptop that goes up to member 7770 so less people may need to re-register. I hope it will talk to the older tables. My mysql skills are limited but browsing in mysqladmin things look very good. The last post was by UFO.

Hopefully OK later tonight or in the morning. It's out of my hands for the moment.

Wow, that's fantastic news!

And in other news I only just found this particular thread...

What he said... All good news

This news deserves a glass or two of Killerby Cb Sav '97 !!!

I cant wait...

Good news and I'm glad I was of some service in this mash up.

Still waiting!

Nothing has changed since last night.
I just upped my account to premium support. I really need this done Friday business their time (a few hours away) otherwise the weekend may mean no AF home until Monday.

I think all bases are covered re everything else. DNS easy changed once it's working but I will tell you the temp address straight away.

http://gibgib.powweb.com/aussiefrogs/forum/index.php

You need your username & password from 2006.
If you have forgotten send me an email gibgib@aussiefrogs.com

If you registered after March 2006 you need to re-register.

There is still a lot of work to do. I will do some more tonight. Going insane sitting here when it's a sunny day outside.

Cheers!

12:30pm Saturday and things must be happening!

Just entered "www.aussiefrogs.com" into my browser, and got sent to agnes-water.com. So it looks like AF is going to the beach :-)

Yep, i's there all right and it looks like Jo Proffi got in with the first post of the new grown up (no daddy) era!

However the backup must have been taken just days before I joined up, as it doesn't recognise my old username and password :-(.

Man your DNS is fast!

Try it now. There was a powweb prob & they fixed it within about 10 mins!

Thanks - that's better!

Tried to register, but the 6 letter code (Image Verification) doesn't appear. Each time I refresh the image the background changes but no letters appear. Same in either IE or Chrome.

Thanks I'll check that.

Also I am rebuilding the threads as adding another one add to an existing one.

Image verification not working I need to get powweb to fix.
It will ask you a question instead for now.

Whew! Took while to guess the answer to the question (I used 2 words), but I'm in! The moderator approved me pretty qickly too :-).

Now Agnes Water is back. Oh well...
