Who has the inside scoop? The sight has been apparently down for quite some time. I cannot log in with my original ID. Who can shed some light?

From what I've read the owner of the board didn't pay his hosting bill, therefore, the original website got whiped out, which is why all of the original user ID's, post counts, and the archive threads have all been lost....

well from what I remember, a few of the moderators of the old LS1.com tried to buy it from the owner but he's not willing to give up the site....i guess he wants to take it to his grave lol

but anyways, most of the old people from LS1.com migrated over to LS2.com, inlcuding the moderators

Just before it shut down, I had a sponsor tell me to **** off because I had challenged them on their exorbitant shipping fees for a supposed group purchase on BMR suspension items. I was hoping to rehash that conversation...

That is too bad... I met a lot of awesome folks via that message board. The good thing is that most of those people are over here and on some of the above mentioned sites. Thanks for the information although it is bad news.
