I may be wrong, but my understanding is that the forum content is stored on disks in a data centre. I suppose as long as Tipster pays to keep the data stored, then once new server is ready, it will get moved to new disks. My thinking is that the new server is going to be pretty expensive, hence the delay in paying for it. That makes sense ,so really we just have to wait without getting to worried about things out with our control. |

Hello everyone. Just found that SFF3 was down. Hope everyone is doing ok? Very strange imo that Tipster didn't announce his holiday over Chritmas and then the sudden and without warning lack of the forum. This is not how Tipster works, whats going on? Hi Dave your guess is as good as mine it feels like the sequel to five years ago. I think its finished mate thats the feeling. |

It doesn't look that good for where I am sitting. Perhaps Tipster just can't afford to run a new server for the forum? Or perhaps it is taking him longer to transfer files over from one to the other? I just think that it is really bad on Tipsters part that he didn't manage to tell the mods or members of what was going to happen in good time.

Well, well, well......  Hi guys !!! Good to read you in my busy summer  Fortunately my head is not dedicated to the fetish at this time since you already know I´m busy with my job..... This break for my is great !!! No time for the fetish, even no forum for it At least I´m feeling not guilty for the lack of my participation in the forum during last time. Shaun must be very happy with this vacation And let me tell you I´m totally agree with above said by you all. 1- Something happened to Tipster or situation was very complicated and quick to inform us details. 2- Do any of you know if Tipster had this forum link ? I know some of you wrote him, and at the time I suppose this link was properly sent. But any of you know if he had prior of that action this link ? 3- I said above that can´t believe any explanation was given to us......... More than that: PM's were sent and no replies were received ..... What a strange situation........... 4- I think if Tipster is fine any intend of contact with us should be done...... Step, by step. How many time we can keep in this sutuation  Agree with Jim that if no good explanation is received, I´m out. By the time enjoying this fetish vacation  I think we all feel the same at this point ......, but how explain that feeling in words. .......   Ok, guys. lets wait for better news .......... And have a nice weekend .........  |

When I sent my email to Tipster, I didn't have the link to here at the time (had forgotten about it actually). I'm pretty sure that Shawn / inNout said a couple of pages back that he sent an email to his SFF-3 contact addy that Dave gave, and did include the link. Anyway, no reply back to me from him, now 5 days past. As for me, is SFF-3 (or 4) comes back, I will remain involved. However, my time spent there the last couple of years has become much more difficult with consideration to my real life. I had always thought, before all of this, that at some point in the future that I would likely have to step down from modding for swimming lessons and soccer practice (oops, I mean football ;D ). If that time has come now, then so be it. Otherwise, I have no plans to join SFK or other forums in place of SFF-3. Just thought I'd pass that on... Have a good weekend guys! |

BTW..... 18 guests at the time And we are growing ... hehehehehheheheeh Mike perhaps we should post some pics for the guests . If you remember i sent him an email to inform him about the site disk being full ,when he returned he stated that he had received my message in the shoppe disk full thread,so he has me email address ,he could just also look in his inbox and email me.# I sent message from sff3 so i dont have his. Unless he changed it in the last two weeks his old address is valid. |

I laso dont have any plans to join any other forums ,i think what we all need is time off from it all ,like you enjoy the family more,plan trips for myself and Wilma this year,take Sparky to his next level etc things i have neglected to do ,and time is precious Rob and so much lost in a thankless way. In time i will return when ready perhaps even as a mod in the mean time if sff3 returns iam stepping down as a mod i could'nt in all conscience give myself to something or someone who does'nt care for me as an individual enough to have the common decency to let me or you guys know whats happening,i cant help think that it was us and the other great posters who built that forum. It happened once like this five years ago exactly the same we were all left wondering no site no contact ,I let it go back then but not a 2nd time. When I sent my email to Tipster, I didn't have the link to here at the time (had forgotten about it actually). I'm pretty sure that Shawn / inNout said a couple of pages back that he sent an email to his SFF-3 contact addy that Dave gave, and did include the link.
