I don't know how much longer the board will hold together. The worm appears to be infiltrating other areas and it's been 51 days since I've heard anything from the wow board idiots. I spoke at length this afternoon with Greg and I've decided we're going to migrate the board. I don't know how long it will take and we will retain the ODPL url so keep checking. I know something is up because Nuke day sent me a disturbing email with a copy of the sign up email that he received. Obviously the "send invitation email" has been compromised, I had turned it off. It sent him a user name of "array" and a totally different pass word. When he first emailed me I responded and cut out the user name he wanted from the email and sent him back only a temporary password. I then set him up and sent him an email containing only the log in string with his log in name in it so i know something is up. I then tried to log in as him and it kept keying off of my log in cookie. I went back to the board and clicked the administrator link and it asked me for a log in then wouldn't take my user name and PW. I am still logged on as Ken at work so I may be able to do some damage control with it tomorrow. To make a long story short; we have over 1200 members, I am paying for something we're not getting. The new board does not have the upload restrictions the Wow board does so we'll be able to host all the manuals. It will include all Datsun and Nissan Pickups. It will look a little different but will give each of you more options and it will be safer and more stable. I don't know how long this process will take because the boards language will have to be modified and we want to save everything we already have here. If for some reason the board goes down be patient we're coming back. I promise. :dude:I again must stress that if you don't have an active antivirus program on your computer do a search for Trend Micro Housecall and scan your computer.

PS this is me and my beautiful Oldest daughter at a Breakin Benjamin concert!

Thanks for the update Ken. Nice picture of you and your daughter.
Pleb, she's married and God willing, I'm going to be what we call here in the south a 'Paw-Paw". Not sure I'm ready for that but she is turning out to be something to make a dad proud! PS we had just survived a mosh pit at a "breakin benjamin" concert.:cool:

Crap!  That just might have been me Ken!  I tried to set nukeday up manually...when it didn't work, I had him email you.  Sounds like that screwed things up :(  I'm really sorry about that.

Mike we got him up. That is what matters. I want anyone who wants to join to be here, I'm disturbed about him getting a fake email but we'll work around it until we get the board migrated. The new board is gonna be awesome!:)

Ken-

I dont know how you do it.  Running a board is hard when it is working properly.  I am hoping to get going on my 2.4 L auto conversion soon.  After that there is the other truck.  I was going to do a 3.5 L from a Z car, but maybe an electric with 40 mi range and a diesel genny would be more in line with the times.  Let us all know how the switch goes.  I would hate to get lost from this group.  My wife reads these as well and it helps her understand the sickness of having 3 NL 320's none of which presently run...

We're going to commit any and all necessary resources to keeping ODPL running, and we'll be providing you guys with a ton more options and functionality.

Suffice it to say you'll be in good hands, and I look forward to working more closely with the staff and members here as we complete the migration.

Stay tuned, friends.
