Thanks for everyone's patience. Please let us know if you run into any snags on the new Club. 

Enjoy!

Adriaan and Dave did so much behind the scenes, and Ralph pulled at least one all-nighter to get things right. Woke up Erik a couple times to get the DNS done when needed.

The Club was in maintenance mode since April 10, so there have not been any posts in the interim.

Also, top right of each page you will find shortcuts for "Unread posts" and "Updated topics". Hope it helps!

That is currently being addressed.  Like many other sites, we have been and still are getting hit by hackers and DDOS attacks.  Some of the changes that were made to the site were attempts to reduce these bots, but they seem to be increasing in number.  Indeed, that was our primary goal in making this change to our forum at this time.  So, further steps are now being implemented, and we hope to see some positive results.

David,

If you want to email what kinds of attacks the website is experiencing, I can check at work and see how we deal with it.

Thanks Rob.  We have someone working on it who does this as his profession.  It's all way outside any area of expertise I could have if I even had an area of expertise.  :)

Anybody know where to go to read new posts?  When you click unread posts, it takes you back to post #1 in each thread then you have to scroll to find the most recent one.  Doesn't seem to remember where you last left off.

From the unread posts or updated topics, you can click on the date and time under Last post, which takes you to the last post. When you see a NEW flag, you can click that to take you to (presumably) the first new posts on that topic.
