Sven1 Posted July 20, 2021 Author Share Posted July 20, 2021 Found out Nabble. Forums the host of the Compass Forum was downsizing servers. The Compass Forum and others using Nabble as the host , will not re-activate the forum unless the original owner of the Compass Forum responds to their email. The orig. owner about 5 years ago quit and moved onto other hobbies and gave Joe full Admin rights to keep it going. When Joe stepped down, I took over. Ownership of the Compass Forum was never transfered to Joe. So we have no way of keeping it going. So the Compass Forum as it stands is no more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sven1 Posted July 22, 2021 Author Share Posted July 22, 2021 There is something in the works right now. Nabble has reduced the server size. So forums were given the axe unless orig. owner responded to Nabbles email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
