All we need are the last four digits of the social and the zip code of the person with the power over this site. Then the group can move forward. But with no communication with that person maybe we need to send out a search party but no one is in close proximity to the suspected location of that person with the power over this site.
And I can't even get an approval to join the fb group to learn what is going on over there.
What the heck. I've got access to this forum and Rod's Excellent Pages as well as a Bentley so maybe I can keep my car going a few more years.

Hell of a start for identify theft. If it was mine, and it's not, that is the last thing you would ever get from me. IMO, there's just certain things you don't do.

Well it is what you need to get in to be able to use the 'owner's benefits' to a website. Been answering those questions for a couple weeks as I argue with the bank about things. They can't even talk on the phone without verifying. PITA.Mike W. wrote: Aug 08, 2024 8:42 PMHell of a start for identify theft.

Re: Unsafe login?
Shawn, thanks for redirecting me here.
Would it be possible for you and I to get on call to discuss this? I went through a very similar situation with in the late '90s with the PorschePhiles/PorcheList mailing lists/forums. I was able to work with several motivated individuals to save the content and community and redirect it to what is now www.rennlist.com.
We have a lot of options that range from attempting to take over the domain/phpBB site to archiving all the content and starting something new.
The key is to get moving before something else breaks technically that will cause the content to actually be lost.
Feel free to email me so we can coordinate.

Yes, but it would be a waste of time for both of us. Not to be testy about it, but as I've already said, I have no legal or technical authority here. I will PM you for your email to pass along to Catalyst/Jeremy.

Hoping this all gets resolved and back on track before the domain registry expires.

If it doesn’t get renewed, all services cease to function.

@Jeremy, I know you and @CEK have communicated about fixing the certificate issue with this forum.
He's done it previously with another car enthusiast site.
He has the expertise, and can be trusted.
So, before this thing crashes and burns and is declared a total loss, accept his offer to fix it.

Re: Unsafe login?
I second this post by 1st 5er. I know CEK personally, who has been a member here for as long as myself, and owns a great deal of fine examples of E28s. His name is synonymous with top level product delivery (both corporate and enthusiasts like Holy Grail Labs fuse box solution), and I believe he can be 100% trusted with securing and preserving mye28.com for many more decades.1st 5er wrote: Nov 05, 2024 10:29 AM @Jeremy, I know you and @CEK have communicated about fixing the certificate issue with this forum.

Re: Unsafe login?
Folks, CEK has been involved for a while now. Y'all can quit suggesting him.

somebody's not gettin' the "go ahead", for a while now.
Sorry to be a dick, but, well...
Re: Unsafe login?
Sorry to be a dick, but, well... what the fuck do you expect ME to do? Ask CEK and/or Jeremy.
Re: Unsafe login?
Hey all. I decided to check back in today after years of silence, and see this thread.
I'm also willing to offer my assistance if necessary.
As you may recall, i did the content migration from the old site to this one.
BTW, the modern way to do SSL cert renewal is LetsEncrypt, which is free and 100% automated.

Matt? Wow, a blast from the past. Not that I have anything to do with running Mye28 so I can neither accept or reject it, but thanks for the offer.Matt wrote: Nov 29, 2024 4:14 PM Hey all. I decided to check back in today after years of silence, and see this thread.

Re: Unsafe login?
This (and a bunch of other technical issues) have all now been addressed!
You are now using a completely upgraded board on completely modern and sustainable technology.
Yay!
Oh, and I changed my handle from "cek" to "tig". Get used to it.

Re: Unsafe login?
A simple or even HUGE "Thank you" does not suffice. You have accomplished a great and wondrous thing, sir.
