(...even if i'm not a fan of the new "smartphone friendly" website layout trend... (it's kind of boring on a 27" screen...but it's only my problem, i guess...)) but i will surely get use to, fast enough, as i (have always use to) spend hours, here and there on the different boards of the forums... It is good to read your kind words and see you here. I need to change the colours of the forums over the next few days....once I learn how to do that. To be honest....as I did the daily updates on the homepage....I often wondered if anyone was still reading them. It's been a month full of big doubts as every thing dragged on and on.

You can see why I was reluctant to tackle this massive project earlier. People that are close to me are stunned by how many different projects I have going on in my life.

falcon20driver Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 I'm extremely grateful you did. I never realized how much I truly used and valued ARC till it disappeared. We're extremely grateful for all you do Steve. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SBARC Posted October 9, 2016 Author Share Posted October 9, 2016 I'm pretty choked up and humbled that these forums are actually online and finally working in their updated format. This is an impossible dream come true. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fighting Eighty-Four Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Thank you Steve for all the hard work! I have been jonesin' for my ARC fix for a month! I was checking the update page every day hoping that would be the day it came back online. Today is that day!!!! Woot! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rustywelder Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Thanks for the hard work getting this place back on line Steve! I never realized how much of my daily browsing routine revolved around arc. Glad to be back! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stalal Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 When you type arcforums.com, do you still get the warning page? I m still getting the phishing warning. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I m still getting the phishing warning. going to arcforums.com should take you to the forums home page...you might get the big red warning page...you might not. I would hope that issue would resolve itself in the coming weeks...but sadly I know how google sometimes does connect the dots very well. The ARC forums are safe and secure.....the trick is getting Google to notice and drop the warning message. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Scooby Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Very cool new look, just like Britmodeler. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
crackerjazz Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Thanks for all your hard work, Steve! Cool layout too - very refreshing! I miss the preview post button, though : ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Slartibartfast Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Hooray!!! I too was checking the ARC web site every day for a progress update. Curious, I couldn't find the ARC Forum Update GoFundMe link anywhere. And Steve, if you'd post your phone number, we can call or text the next time there's trouble.
