Evening everyone!
Just wanted to drop a post that ConservativeUnderground.com is now owned and being run by SaintLouieWoman and myself.
Crusty, CU's original owner, just doesn't have the time anymore to run CU so we are picking up where he left off.
He's done a Greyt job over the years and is to be commended! Well Done.
SR.

Woo hoo! Greyt news!
Hope it works out for you.
I kinda miss that place, but I'm busy with things (http://www.conservativecave.com/index.php?action=profile;u=1064) here.

I signed up there but don't think I ever posted. Might have to go take a look.

Hmm .. interesting. I just registered, then clicked on the email link to confirm, and when I clicked to go to the home page it says:
You have been banned for the following reason:
No reason was specified.
Date the ban will be lifted: Never
Fascinating.

I tried to dust off my very much unused account there and it doesn't seem to have sent out the "change password mail" - Yes - I have checked my spam folder on the email account I used.

Never mind - It was just slow to come in.

Nice to see that CU is finally being run by the Sith Lord!
Congrats, SR! I might have to go over and dust off my account.

So it appears that new management doesn't mean clean slates for everyone eh?

Never fear, just when you think there might be a shortage of assumptions ...
:doh:

No, it means that we were being overrun by spammers and that some good people might have been accidentally nuked. If it happens, please just send a pm to SR or me here and we'll be sure it goes through.
Those Russian spammers were getting overwhelming.

Janice, please just pm with the name that you are using and we'll make sure that you don't get the ban message. I'm really sorry, it wasn't anything deliberate, just a result of procedures that were taken to get around a deluge of spammers.

You are showing as a registered user now, let me know if you still can't get in!

Thanks guys... everything appears to be normal now. (http://i52.tinypic.com/2m2dqth.gif)
-
Just registered.

I think I might come back.
-
Cannot register. "Site unavailable."

How is it on stability now? Last time I tried to check in, I found I had pretty much been purged by yet another board failure ('Way before you took over, SR, no slight intended).
I didn't bother to re-register then due to the poor track record on site stability, well, plus an infestation of A-holes. I'm pretty well settled in here now, and have never had problems with the CC site software (Since the first month of Shoutbox FUBARness), but I might re-register and drop in once in a while if I could be sure I wouldn't have to re-register each time.

There are still some annoying people around (won't there always be?), mostly libs. But no Gator, Paul-bots or the like.
Knocking on wood, but CU hasn't had a board crash in over three years..... :ashamed:

Last one must've been fairly soon after I stopped visiting the place regularly then. I'll have to check it out.

Just registered.
Sorry bud but I'm betting I accidently deleted you. CU has been getting tons of spammers and I have the Forum set to drop everyone new into a que so I can weed out the spammers. I looked for your acct and it is gone so I'm sure I zapped it by mistake. If you wouldn't mind doing it again I'll make sure it goes thru.
The site is stable and we haven't had any problems in years now. I did reboot the server a few days ago around 11am so if anyone tried to join during that time they would have gotten a message that the site was down, but that was only for around 10 minutes.
If anyone has a joining issue let me know: webmaster@conservativeunderground.com :p

I remember CU would have crashes that would erase everything. I remember it happening in 2005 and 2008 and that is 3 years. How come Gator was banned?
-
The board is stable now, we haven't had any problems.
Gator just lost it. I honestly have no idea what went on with him
but he got to the point where I just had to cut him loose.

Is my old account still there?

No, you could rejoin with that name if you want to.

Ah, well. Thanks, SR.

I think all the pre-2008 names and tallies were lost in the crash then. SR was great at restoring my old identity as best I could recall the details of it, though, definitely worth a look. Some of the old-timers who didn't come over to CC or didn't stay all still there. The three or four major jerkwads who infested the place in the Gator days (Including Gator) all seem to be gone or inactive.
