6gceli.com?Or griffys is good

I think Coomer is still doing alright keeping this place maintained for now.

From the looks of it, no one has complained about errors or anything of that sort for quite a while (that I know of).

this all makes me sad, it would suck if my homepage didnt come up one day, this site has changed so much about my car and all the knowledge that i have found out about my car, this site is amazing it has everything, its gonna be a sad day when this site does not work, but im down for 6gcelica.com, i would be down for a membership fee or helping with the start up fee to get another site and just copy the stickies to that site, i know that we could have at least 40 people including i that want this site to be what it can be, but we all know it will most likely never happen, so i agree with griffgirl either taking over this site or running a new celica site. anyone else?

bring it to the new year!!

copy the whole website to browse it offline as a memento, probably 1gb of pages...

I think having three or four people with sysadmin rights makes a lot of sense. I would be very willing to put my name down as long as at least two others also have rights (I have a very busy work life and don't want an AWOL period to cause problems for others). I also have some mysql, php, smarty, perl and python skills (my day job) so might be able to add a few little features from time to time.

BTW, if anyone has an email address for Chris, please can you PM me it. I have his @6gc.net address but mail to that address is bouncing.

We can keep going over the same thing forever, but it doesn't look like anything is going to change for the foreseeable future... sorry.

Eff yew, Mr. Hanky!



I agree though, a backup plan is good to have but let's not all go into hysterics over this. Nothing's actually even happened other than chat being pulled. I mean, we're still here, aren't we?

Hey guys, just hopping back in after thinking for a while. I've spent a few weeks contemplating what to do and discussing it with my girlfriend (who is on your guys' side and won't leave me alone about this), and though I haven't made any final decisions, I have been thinking hard about what to do.

I'm actually going to spend the next hour or so looking into adding another admin and the implications there. Off the top of my head, I know that there are several powerful administrative features that could potentially bring down the server by accident, so I'm investigating that. I'm also looking into how I can add another linux user on the server with access to the 6gc source code, database, etc. That's a fairly large sysadmin task I think, but I'm going to look into it right now.

So yeah, still thinking, but I'll post again soon with more details.

Dont give up on us Coomer

Genuinely good to see you being involved. Again, I recommend GriffGirl for the admin job.

I'd do admin for administrative and not policing admin. I don't want to be a cop on here, because I'd ban probably a good third of the people on here. lol

WOOT WOOT for coomer!!!!!


we are here faithfull as ever.

there is hope!

cheers Commer. Whatever is planned, I'm sure everybody will be happy with it

I believe we have very good guard dogs here what we need is someone who cares about technical things to not let page in "coma" because of silly things like:
- front page desperately not up to date...
- is there anyone who approves high-res images?
- new featured ride
- new extras
- update on parts database (dead links for example)

etc... nothing to do with police . So... IMHO (repeat: in my humble opinion) you are qualified for this

Chris is working on adapting the admin tools so we (manny) can take control of the site admin.

We already approve hi-res pics, looking to add the other points you mentioned soon Martin
