    I closed your Post because you said

    this indicates CAF bashing in which case YES I will close down the Thread, the ONLY reason this one is open is becasue it was for INFO on what happen, I closed one of the same topic in the Gerneral forum because 1>it was in the wrong forum 2> this one was already here

    well thank you


    But This site does not have near the Trafic volume and if it did I am sure it would have a few problems and would more than likly force me to change my server as well, I am not hosted for the high amount of traffic that CAF gets, if I ever grow that big I will move with no problems, I think Lee's main problem is that he has a IMO bad hosting company, I hope with the Move he has fixed that and will provide the users of his forum with a better uptimes, But you can not expect much since the site is free and advertisement free, so (just like here) his stereo shop soley supports that site

    and i dont see why he doesnt try and do some internet sales, he has a huge group to sell to and i doubt if traffic would slow at all.. he doesnt have so much as a link to his web site if he even has one.. we tried tyo find his shop a while back and it wasnt easy. i think it would be in his best interest to put up something.. hell, he is the only major forum out there that ISNT an advertisement..

    sounddomain, elite, here, soundillusions, carsound, even trempro is an ad site for termpro products and dbdrag racing itself as well as the many sponsors on the main pages.. it is remarkable that he devotes that money and time to the forum, however i think he should go ahead and advertise a little and at least break even on the forum.

    I agree 100% I can tell you the name and Address of his shop,

    He should atleast have the name and address of the shop in the Copyright info,

    but it could be a tax thing as well

    seems like if anything he would be able to write it off of his taxes.. afterall he is doing a public service by providing a forum for educational purposes. same for you.. ever looked into writing the forum expenses off??

    oh yeah we found it eventually. id like to visit it someday and meet Lee Herron. would be strange seeing him in person.

    CAF is back up for whoever wants to check it out. the regular website is not up yet (caraudioforum.com) and nothing has really been transfered yet (you'll have to create a temporary name because names haven't been transferred yet) but to get to it it's www.caraudioforum.com/vbb2

    Hell yes, michael!

    Check that out..

    I know you need a web host for your site regardless, but wouldn't it be nice to be able to write off those hosting expenses, justified by a "charitible cause?"

    Fantastic suggestion Regal!
    And I bet this has been done before... ;)
