• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Cafehusky wins...

We are approaching 10K members, 1/4 million posts and a GREAT crowd. TT on the other had hardly has 2 new posts a day in the husky forum. I can't keep up with this site. Looks like Coffees little idea worked. Shows what honest level moderating and a good group of people will do. Keep up the good work Dean, thanks.

Amen Kelly, this is a great little place
Thanks to Dean's vision, the top notch sponsors (best in the industry) and the great work of the moderators, we now have one of the finest asylums in the business
:cheers:
 
The only thing TT has to say in the last few months is about George Plus now they talk about George and his Beta Thought it was a Husky section I have not posted there in like 6 months and see no reason to go there
 
The other place appears to be dying on it's butt, which is a shame. Perhaps a bit of moderation when it was needed backalong woulda sorted things out, but "the needs of the many were outweighed by the needs of the one." There's a moral there, probably.
