Gary, I'm glad that you got through!
About 10 days ago Dan Busse called me and we had a nice long discussion. Seems that you can't just fire one forum host and switch to another quickly...technical "Geek" stuff. He pointed out that the Swamp is operating over at Bladeforums, and eventually the Yard will too. I myself have been posting at the Swamp, so I know that it's working. In time the Yard shoulod be at Bladeforums as well, listed under the "Manufacturers'Forums" .
As far as some other members goes, it pays to have a "thick skin". Most of us can get heated at one time or another.
I'm a little disappointed there because, well, you can.
Switching hosts takes some technical work but is straight forward. Speaking from extensive experience here.
A case a beer, a credit card, and a decent day of work would see it done... That is part of what makes me sad here. An easily resolved problem that has stretched many months now.
I guess the one caveat would be an extremely bad contract with one location. Although worst case I'd expect to be paying for two hosts for a bit which I think would be less damaging than the loss of clients this forum is likely causing.
