Last post by shavethewhales - July 01, 2026, 09:25:17 AMSo as you guys have probably seen, we went down once again due to a bandwidth overrun. The last time this happened, I actually increased my hosting package for the first time in 19 years to accommodate. We are actually at the top level package for the small host that I use, and it should be more than plenty for a small site like this. I don't know what is causing the massive bandwidth spike that we have been dealing with this year, but I suspect it is AI bots scraping the site for content.
This forum has been having issues for a long time now anyway due to legacy problems since our software is a hodge-podge of 20 years of tinkering and updates. I have been meaning to work on it more for months, but I am incredibly busy at my actual job, and I just don't have the time to mess with code like I used to, especially with how much more complex things have gotten over the last two decades.
I think my last solution is this: I'm going to archive these boards and then install a fresh new forum. Everyone will have to sign up again, but it should run much smoother, and hopefully be easier to manage on my end. I think I am going to go with ElkArte, but if that doesn't work then it will be phpBB.

That was hyperbole, wasn't meant to be taken literally. To highlight the ridiculousness of taking a 50mm lens on a Roller Coaster. I apologize for the confusion. #66

But there are supports next to Outlaw Run. Obviously no photos because they're not visible from the park except on the coaster and we don't do that.What is more, the camera lens required to get a good shot of the staging area would look out of place on the Frisco Silver Dollar Line, let alone a roller coaster. Good knot hole shots will be available in due time

The track is not on site. No one said it hasn't been delivered

Last post by RowEleven - June 22, 2026, 08:56:43 PMI think it's pretty well established that this will not be a kiddie ride. A family thrill ride? Yes. But not more intense than PowderKeg.
