Long story short, I am a reputable member of the small Tahoe Forum website. On April 7 the website just suddenly stopped working at all due to a supposed Database Error. The members/site vendors/contributors were constantly seeking info as to what happened with no response AT ALL from the site owners/administrators. As many attempts were put in to find out what happened to the website, some members decided to make a new forum (as this one was not looking at coming back anytime soon). The new created site is the Tahoe Yukon Forum (www.tahoeyukonforum.com) which is better in every aspect than the Tahoe Forum. To our suprise after a month and a half of hard or no login capabilities, ignored concern messages and postings and just straight rude member service the website came back on May 13!
Member were pissed by then, and vendors/supporting members (people who paid money to be part of the site as just contribution or to help sell items) had blew gaskets with anger. THey all wanted to know why they paid so much money to the website only to have it close down with no follow ups to them. The owners at the beginning tried to throw around bull saying the site was sold and they don't know the new owners which is BS.
Well now that the site was back, many members/vendors logged on and psoted there grievances and anger about the 6 week issue, telling many new members asking questions to join the Tahoe Yukon Forum (because most reputable/active member had sworn never to helo that site again and had moved to the Tahoe Yukon Forum.
Then the owners/administrators did the worst, they banned almost all the old members, no matter their side in th issue. Some were banned for a certain amount of time (like me) while other were forever, as their excuse for banned members ranged from "being bastards" to "being trouble-makers).
Why would somebody not be a trouble maker after all this???
I will post a link to this issue being discussed at the Tahoe Yukon Forum, as the issues about it at the actual Tahoe Forum have been deleted and the whole site put on lockdown.
