OU.com - New Forum Software and Losing Messages

[poynt99]

Hey guys,

I hope you are all well!

I went to read a new message by Mannix and noticed a header message from Stefan as per below...

In the next few days, I will convert the Forum to a new Forum Software.
PLEASE SAVE YOUR OLD PRIVATE MESSAGES. IF YOU STILL NEED THEM AND THEN DELETE THEM, AS THE PRIVATE MESSAGES WILL NOT BE CONVERTED TO THE NEW FORUM AND WILL BE LOST THEN !
Please still a bit patience, I still must test a few things before the conversion will be taking place.
Many thanks for your help. Regards,  Stefan Hartmann ( Admin)

I have a lot of pages of messages, but I don't feel like saving each one as it will take quite some time. I wonder why he can't port them over?

Well, if anything, consider this a heads up in case you wish to save your messages at OU.

PS. Sounds like Lindsay is having a bit of a rough time health-wise. I wish him the best.

Hi  poynt

Hope all is well.

We are close approaching the 12 year anniversary of the "Master of Magnetics" thread. Good to see that Lindsay is still around, but sorry to hear of his health issues. Sounds pretty grim from his recent writing.

I know you and some of the old timers here were there from the very beginning and have all spent an enormous amount of time trying to crack the code.

Personally I've been on it and off at times......necessary to clear my head and reset. 'Till this day it remains the one device that has absorbed a lot of my free time for contemplation, and there is always a fresh perspective (concerning it's operation) to be had.

From his own admission, I know that Lindsay is holding a few cards close, and maybe you will be that "one person" he alluded to that he will discuss further.

All for now

Best of Luck in the coming year.

Not very good news about Lindsay, I hope he manages to get through it and come out the other side.

Hi ION and Peter.

Yes, it has been a long time, and a fair bit of time since I have thought much about SM and his TPU.

I see Turbo (i.e, Marco) has posted something interesting at OU. Apparently he has quit the thread though and gone elsewhere. I found his post interesting..any idea where he went? (I didn't see anything here, did I miss it?).

Re. Lindsay, I have a feeling he will pull through.
