Ok folks, this weekend is going to be a busy one for TMN. Top on the to-do list is installing a chat room. Does anyone have any features they would like to see in chat? Let me know.

No requests or wish lists for chat?

I was thinking about it, but I have nothing. It's probably because I don't use it enough.

Fair enough. I'm going to install it this weekend and we can modify and improve it as we move forward. My goal is to continually add new features to TMN and keep it up to date.

Was getting a kick out of the new "Word-Trigger" links. Don't think I'll ever "tire" of them. Was learning some new synonyms too!
Just got a great deal on a new set of tires rubber vehicle wheel wrappers!! :rock:

That would be something installed on your PC Tito because I haven't installed anything on the live site.

Thanks Kevin. It just started... happens to me on other sites too. For instance when the word tire appears it's in blue, a click on it opens a link to a menu for tire sales. The word play in Ryan's post same deal, a click sends me to credit report websites. Gotta figure this shitt out. Goin' after #2 son, who's been sitting here at command central, with a ball bat!! :)) :((

EDIT: Something called "Coupon Companion" plugged into my PC from somewhere. I think #2 son was able to remove it. Thanks.

We've had people calling our office the last couple weeks about Coupon Companion, blaming our website. It is hidden inside another installer and installs without the user's knowledge. Anyway, ComboFix will usually fix any problems you have. If the link below doesn't work Google "ComboFix" and download it from Bleeping Computer.

Hands down the best PC cleaner I've found. It fixes 95% of the stuff people bring me.

Edit: If you live in the Parkersburg area ComboFix WILL NOT WORK. You must PM me and bring me the PC to fix. It is a flat fee of $40. :paranoid:

Sorry for the downtime. We had a catastrophic system failure. We should be good.

On a side note, I'm moving the site to a new server later this week. Details to follow.

I'll be moving the site to the new server tonight at midnight. Downtime should be less than 10 minutes.

The site is now on the new server. I'll be moving the database to the new server either tomorrow or Friday night. Downtime should be less than 10 minutes.

Every time I get a PM I get an email, can you turn this off?
