trump and his team better be extra vigilant. the nuts are out there like what the killer did to the ceo of united healthcare and let's not forget the failed two assassins.
This is why I won't even join that site. Why bother supporting something that's platform is an anti-1A format because they don't want their liberal viewpoints challenged in any way? COVID and the aftermath was a horrible attack on our country and things that went wrong must be corrected with laws so they never happen again. It NEEDS to be discussed and light brought to the evil that occurred so it can be prevented in the future.
Notice that during COVID anyone questioning the narrative were silenced and now are being silenced again for bringing up new findings. Who is doing the silencing in both cases??
Ok, I know ZERO about forums and IT and such. But at this point, would it not be better to simply scrap the current iteration of Calguns and completely restart the forum on a modern forum platform/provider? I realize we'd be losing all the history. But the history is useless anyway if you can't even get to the forum. At least the forum would live on.
Or is this a horrible idea? I don't know enough about these things to know if this is horrible.
Rebuilding from scratch would change everything, it would be from nothing with nothing in it. Unless people are willing to come back and rebuild the threads that were there, there would be whole parts of CGN with nothing in them and probably be that way for a long time. Also, I'd bet many of the people who left would just see it as a reason not to come back. BUt the longer this all goes on the chances of survival gets less and less.
i'm not smart enough to know the complicated merging, moving to a bigger server, etc. i thinks kes wanted to save the contents and history but it's not happening. we saw his efforts in trying to make it work but it keep getting worse.
he's probably trying to for the last time before making a decision to start with a clean slate.
If only he let us know...
Site troubles are one thing. But it sure would be nice to get a little update once in a while. At least tell us what is going on.
true! he's probably frustrated, pulling his hair out and swollen hand for punching the wall that's why he's not able to type to give us an update.
Good evening
So what's the plan?
I understand the list is for if we lose contact on both .org & .net.
Does that mean you hold it in trust until then?
Should all contributors receive a copy?
That's how our neighborhood watch list worked, everyone who added their name & number got a copy.
can the police enforcement be removed and just stick to investigation?
There's never been any question about the separation of powers and who has sovereign authority. The question has always been one of actual enforcement. Just like the 3 Judge Panel which made this decision is not truly the 'determinative' factor. It is a step in the theoretical underpinnings of authority. But, it still comes down to budgets, who exercises authority in a given location/context, and who is actually expected to carry things out.
I suspect that's why the lead sentence says: "Sanctuary policies across the United States may be in jeopardy..." (italics emphasis mine)
Kash didn't say he wants to break it up, but he did say he wants to spread it around outside of DC. No more centralization of power.
So spread the swampy FBI around and make it ooze everywhere? There will always be a centralized HQ for it in DC at the J. Edgar Hoover building (oh, the Irony of it being named after him) (facepalm emoji)
J Edgar Hoover, the cross dresser!

I'm starting to see a pattern. When a certain user from another forum is on, everything works and it's fast. Huh, go figure.
Huh.....yeah, he seems to be commenting every time its up.
I'm hopeful, but not holding my breatb that .net will be fixed. TIC, you have got to be the most optimistic person that I have ever encountered. I truly hope that you are correct in your optimism, however, my gut feeling is that cgn has been abandoned and will never recover. I really hope I am wrong because as others have said, the amount of information that has been posted there over the years 8s invaluable.
I don't recall what your health problems are, but I wish you the best of luck in overcoming them.
It's not so much 'optimism' as it is an unwillingness to call it dead given that we know it's beyond Kestryll's technical abilities and that DrJonesUSA has already posted (on the other site and not here or .net) that he hasn't had much time to dedicate to it. Yes. I too have been left somewhat askance in regard to why he'd post on a 'competing' site rather than on the site he's ostensibly trying to fix, but I'll keep my suspicions to myself for now.
Insofar as my health problems, the last 'major' one was a little over two years ago; but, with a couple of 'minor' ones after that. I never really got a chance to fully recover from the major one and have been forced to deal with the 'after effects' ever since. Naturally, the remedies and the after effects create their own... 'challenges.' Some things in Life are and can be 'overcome.' Other things just have to be 'endured' as the way things are now and, sometimes, adjusting to that new reality simply requires a break or a 'release' or both.
But, that leads back to what's happening with Kestryll and the site. Maybe just a word of good cheer, or at least a 'neutral' cheer, on one or both of the sites actually impacted, would be a good idea in the Season of Good Cheer.
You mean instead of the "For F's Sake Kes, Get It Together" thread?
It's no wonder we haven't seen/heard from him for months with 'cheer' like that coming his way from all over the place.
Yeah, because showing concern over the future of .net is a horrible thing? Yup, watching an upstart site suck away so many long time members and the .net site just languishing for months on end is a great thing for the owner? Its obvious that the other site is just opportunistic, starting up right when major problems started on .net and shouldn't be a major concern for the owner? I guess I am guilty of not wanting .net to die. If I'm showing more concern, well, I'm sorry.
I understand your frustration, most people (including myself) are frustrated. But it's like we are all standing at the ticket counter yelling at the agent because the flight is delayed. I don't think Kes has direct control over the 'fix' or the timeline for the 'fix'. Yep, there's a growing concern that the flight will be 'cancelled' as well, including myself. I encourage you to sign up for the e-mail list, swalt, I don't see your username on it yet.12/1 and still 504's. Not that I expected that it would have been fixed over Thanksgiving weekend though. And with Christmas coming up I will assume there will be little time to get it up and running. I guess my prediction, made so many months earlier that I don't even remember what thread or what site I said it on, will be true. "After the new year" seems to be the case but who knows if even the :shrug:

Not sure you're going to get an answer. Kes hasn't even been on THIS site since October.

It worked last night after I got home yesterday around 1730 hrs. It worked until I went to bed. This morning, nothing but 504's.
FFS Kes, get the act together!! Its been long enough to not get CGN running like it should!! You had a very good thing going with CGN, get it together!!
