Guys, the Admins of RDnet have been working hard to fix issues and do some updating of forum software that's been long overdue.

We apologize for any inconvenience that this may be having on your experience here.

As we proceed, we would welcome any feedback under this forum if you are experiencing anything unusual so we can get right on it.

We will be revising the rules, regulations, and expected conduct and will post them when they are finalized.

Thank you again for your patience and assistance during this period of transition.

Next step = Allow us to access our profiles so was can replace our out of date Avatars and profiles. You can't move forward when you are stuck in the past.

We've got an issue with coding that needs to be fixed. We are working on that. Hang in there. :)

After hours of trying to figure out the coding error, I am pleased to say it is now working, you guys should now be able to work on your profile pages.

Activity stream also now appears to be working.

Please post any remaining coding errors that may still remain and we'll knock 'em off one by one! :)

Members may have to reselect their avatars, if they happen to be missing now.

It appears we are having some issues with the Color Theory skin. Certain links aren't working but the text is displaying.

We are going to address this, but in the meantime, you can select standard VB4 color skin and things appear to be working on that.

I will make that the default color skin until we can get that figured out.

Sorry for the inconvenience guys.

OK. Reinstalled the skin that has been corrupted and have now supplemented with two versions total. Fixed and Fluid. The default for the forum is going to be Color Theory Fluid. You can change your skins using the drop down box on the lower left.

Still have some some tweaking to do, but all hyperlinks should be functioning now.

If I missed something, please be sure to let us know.

Thanks

Guys, getting ready to fly out to West. I will have limited access to the forums for a little bit. Any issues please direct to either RadarNut or Brownout as I will have limited access. There is a SEMA show this week in Vegas that we'll be attending as well. Busy two weeks! :)

Hope to see some of you on the 12th! :)

Thanks Bob for your active role and help keeping everyone informed about new updates.
Hopefully I can locate an amusing Avatar, such as the cool & delectable taco cat by 'Won Hunglo' :)

Meanwhile, good luck with the SEMA show...
A topic that I'm sure folks here will be interested in, including me!

Thanks. Ditto. It's going to be real treat for me on such a personal level too working again with Roy and family. Netshops/Hayneedle didn't have a clue, sales suffered (for many), forum suffered, community suffered, and ultimately the industry did, to be completely blunt.

Roy (et. company) is the rain we (all) needed after an extended drought. With rain, good things happen and things grow. You should appreciate that being in the desert. :) I hope we can all pull in the same direction, now. It'll be a WIN WIN WIN WIN WIN.

I certainly will share my SEMA experiences. ;)

Thanks for helping RR get this site back on its feet. I totally agree with RR's #1 Goal for this site - "My #1 Goal is simple, to make it once again a fun place to hang out with like minded people that enjoy our hobby."

I currently own 7 RD's and I have never had less than 3 RD's on hand since I have owned a car. You just can't have too many RD's!

As far as a website goes RD's should be a fun hobby that anyone can participate in. A Noob should not be intimidated by current forum members. A Noob should be able to ask any question at all, no matter how simple, and receive a polite answer to their question. Just my 2 cents...
