• Husqvarna Motorcycles Made In Sweden - About 1988 and older

  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

Guys, Gals and regulars of the Vintage Left Kicker Forum:

I'm feeling a little pissy tonight. As the Moderator of the Vintage Left Kicker Forum this has been on my mind for awhile.

None of you are major offenders so take this with a grain of salt. If it isn't you, ignore this post and move on.

Spelling, Punctuation, Capitilization and Sentence Structure is important. I don't believe that shortening words is cool or purposely misspelling or abbreviating words is cool. We are not texting in here. Your First and Second grade teacher wouldn't let you get away with it. They also would not let you start a sentence without a capital letter.

All I'm doing is asking you all to be conscious and aware of this. Take a little extra care when you post. This makes us all look better.

I too, do this every now and then. Feel free to call me on it if I do.

I want the Left Kicker Forum to be the shining example for the rest of CH. We are, after all, the heart and soul of all things Husqvarna!

Feel free to comment or post your thoughts.

I don't like to participate in forums where the people write like they are text messaging either. It makes me feel like they are either too impatient to spell properly or like I'm on a forum with a bunch of teenagers.:excuseme:

Just kidding around Mr. T. :cheers:

Merry Christmas eave. Let's all not forget why we celebrate this day. (Even if it's not the proven date.) :excuseme:

"Spelling, Punctuation, Capitilization and Sentence Structure is important."

#1- it's spelled capitalization
#2- it's "... are important."

Just thought you'd want to know.

I can't believe it hasn't been brought to your attention yet that the word highlighted above (in red) is misspelled :busted:




:lol:


I, too, prefer to have clearly worded posts with proper spelling and punctuation. However, I'm guilty of using some shorthand stuff sometimes...but never text-ey stuff! Oh, and I also make up words like "text-ey" sometimes:lol:

Thank you.
 
What really gets me is when someone calls another poster "a mooron", but misspell the word moron. :lol:
I have been known to make a few mistakes, so I don't throw any stones. :D

Everyone makes mistakes guys.... obviously , I just made one.

The intent of this post was to make everyone aware of this kind of stuff but more importantly to "encourage" proper spelling , punctuation etc...

As far as the Moorons go... they are everywhere!

Merry Christmas High_Side!

Another hilarious thread... I kinda wish the poster would have checked his own spelling and grammar before throwing it up for the slaughter ! ..ps, its getting world wide attention which i think just shows just how ridiculous it is !, not to mention the most pettiest thing i've read in years !...good work !:lol:
