is this forum ours now, and can anyone else delete it?

as above

it belongs to us - and we are putting our trust in SJ - which is like the gold standard.......

SJ is the keeper of ATU and all our dreams, hopes, wishes, thoughts, writhings and wranglings

but it is our site......with SJ at the helm

we are entrusting Johannes D Scotus

ATU is dead

Long live ATU

oops I got my J's and S's mixed up.....hehehehe it's been a long day........

Yes. No.

I set it up, I'm the sole admimistrator at the moment, so I am the only person who can delete it - unless someone should hack it, or we break Forumotion's rules, in which case they can delete it.

and you will be doing back-ups ????

Once I figure out how, of course. From my first short look at the FAQ, it sounded as if Forumotion made back-ups automatically and you can set the forum back to a former date anytime. But I'll have to have closer look.

yes - that's true - but only if you're the admin......which of course you are.......so the admin or founder of the site can access back-ups at any time

that means the body corporate......I mean us lot......will be putting our trust in you.......

no idea why Stellar deleted us.........

Thank you SJ for all you have done!

sports jock is a bit of a hero.......

thanks so much

I trust ya sj

blue moon
you made it

Thank you SJ and everybody for restoring the forum

Are all the old threads definitely gone?

I don't know what has really happened but it's good to see the forum keeps going on.

all the old threads exist somewhere in the ether......in cyberspace.......in the unattainable memory of the beast we call teh intahweb.......

there is some slight chance that we can excavate them but not much of a chance.......

they are sighs carried off in the breeze.........promissory notes written on the wind......the bastard children of corrupt echoes

indelible memories of dreams

I suppose that won't be much consolation to Eddie......

Almost the last thing I posted at old ATU was a youtube in the 'one favourite clip of all time...only one' thread. It was this one:


Thank you, ladies, for your show of support.
And thanks sj.

Beautifully expressed, Cath.

it is sad - but it's not the end........

Tats called me this afternoon to tell me - she was in shock......

I had my teeth whitening mouth guard in and couldn't talk properly.......

it really hasn't sunk in yet......

I'm all glib and blithe, but to see that vast repository of knowledge, quips and friendly words just go down the drain is a complete shock.......

it's good that we have a new place thanks to sclerotic jaundice heheheheh

I hope people feel up to the task of starting again.......
