Title: OOF - Past, present and future
Post by: Mr Skrunts on 16 September 2010, 01:39:00
After Brucie had been skip diving to retrieve a post for Martin, it got me thinking about the hardware the OOF is run on and how it may have changed over the years.

We cant let it go by with out thanking the Admins and Moderators for all the time and effort they spend it sorting ththe OOF forum and the members that spend thier time there.

Special thanks to Jamie for all the time spent checking, monitoring, repairing and rebuilding the OOF Databse and server system.  I believe it's run from his spare bedroom so I began to wonder what it all looked like.

The past ?  ::)
