I didn't ask WHEN.

Obviously we aernt gonna start threads immediatly, we tried to get to the bottom of it, and had no luck w the mods.

We want an answer.

I sent a PM to Jimmyblue. Am gonna send to others, as well. It's as if once we reached 200, there was a default that caused an issue. We shall see.

Neither Pro stock or Nineball are listed as admins or mods anymore; that may be why. Although, I know that Nineball was one of the originators of LS1Tech. Anyway, we just need to find the right mod or admin. We'll get it back. It will just take some time.

In the mean time, has anyone in our group had a recent run in with a mod?

about a 1 1/2 years ago,ls1tech was sold by the 'originators' to a 'company'. it went virtually unnoticed what had happened. ls1tech was a great site AND still is a great site. being that it went from a car forum site to a 'for profit' site,the new owners had to keep it 'as is'. the only changes I've seen are a stricter non-tolerance of mentioning/posting places of business that are not ls1tech sponsors/advertisers. some of the original administrators and moderators left and started a new site(which did not achieve the success and participation of ls1tech) and that site is not allowed to be mentioned here on ls1tech.
some of the above info might be incorrect,but it's what I perceived to be happening as it was occurring.

Yes, we know.

Robb M is looking into this for us. Progress is noted in the resources section @ the top of the tech page.

Thanks Robb, we appreciate the assistance.

According to darkformula (a mod on cr) this site is setup the exact same way as cr and there is a 3 step process it takes to delete a group. And it would have had to be me or a admin (or mod with the authority) to delete it. And i know for damn sure i didn't do it. It would have asked me if i wanted to direct all participants to another group. Now why in he'll would i do something like that if were trying so hard to build one of the biggest and most active car clubs in the nation? The best and most fun club at that. No one anywhere else has done this and i sure as he'll ain't going to ruin it either.
