Is The 914Club site down?

Posted by: ValcoOscar Oct 15 2019, 09:59 PM

I heard it was done...but let's see what George says when he chimes in.

@http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showuser=378 , popped the question...

QUOTE
we still have it, but did not get much activity so cancelled the monthly hosting fee.

The original reason we purchased it was to get it into friendly hands. Really 914 owners need only one place to chat and it seems to be the world

George, Did you pull the plug on 'Club'?

Posted by: rhodyguy Oct 16 2019, 07:12 AM

It was a tad obvious. Then discovering club seemed to be history confirmed it. If it ain't there, it's gone.

Posted by: dr914@autoatlanta.com Oct 16 2019, 07:57 AM

yes I got tired of paying the hosting fee, as they went up on it and the only reason I bought it to begin with was to get it in more friendly hands. We still have it intact, just not hosted

I think that it is important to concentrate all 914 club type activities through one arena and it is obviously the world. The samba and the rennlist and pelican should also join in my decision and take their sites down as well. There were too few cars made to dilute the input and make people search for good advice and recognized places to purchase parts for their 914s.

What George is saying is that if we centralize the information and skill set that it will be easier for people to find said information and get help when needed eliminating the countless hours of Googling and disappointment.

Posted by: rhodyguy Oct 16 2019, 09:31 AM

That would be your interpretation. Others see it differently.

George,
I know you own the DNS registration for 914Club.com. How about you redirect it to 914World.com? I think that would do a lot to heal the wounds of the members here when the split happened.

Just a suggestion.

There was nothing wrong with bailing him out. Going to jail over a shady rotten old 914 was just nuts, no matter how you look at it.

Just FYI, the Split™ had nothing to do with Brad going to jail ...

Add me to the list of those who agree with this suggestion.

Also seems in line with George's stated premise of putting our resources behind the best online platform for the preservation of the 914—and there is no question this is it.

Although l do think the club site should be reunited with the world, l see no reason for merge of all sites. Most of those from road glue, rennlist, and like sites are here already.

The car really cannot be restored as every piece of it is different, even the stampings of the rotted floor pan. My goal would be to dismantle it to a bare body shell, clean every part and then reassemble it making it a running driving car, but display it here in high patina

Amazon is pretty cheap for hosting.

There were quite a few good threads on Club, the 916 resto was one.

Maybe Andy can host it but keep it locked down, so we can all benefit from the content?
