Did Team-Ist.net closed its forum or what i have been trying to get on it now for about 2 weeks

 

that place is still around or was? looks like they forgot to pay the bills

 

yeah, looks like someone hasnt paid for it. i havent been able to get on for a while also.

 

i was just about to ask the same thing..
hope they get online soon

 

As far as I know, it it closed down for good. There was really only one person paying for the site to stay up ad-free, and he's done paying for it. Bummer that it had to go down without a warning

 

they shouldve let us know at least. i wouldve kicked in a few bucks.

 

heh

 

Wow ,they just closed up? Thats ashame I liked the sight,

 

Yeah I would have donated. I loved all the info on there

Hey guys, this is Nick from team-ist.net

I was unaware that you guys were never informed that the site was going down. Us Moderators got the message several days before it went down, Jerome let us know he was taking it down for financial reasons, which I can't blame him for. I did however ask him how much it cost to keep up and running, as I was going to pay to keep it up as long as someone else took over as an Admin (I don't have the time for that). But I atleast wanted to keep it up and running for the remainder of the year (if not longer) so that everyone had a chance to get others' contact info and such.

Unfortunately Jerome never got back with me and let the site go down with no further warning to us Moderators.

Like I said, Jerome sold his xA, was out of the scene and tired of paying (all by himself) for a site he really had no use for any longer. He did it for several years and I can't hold that against him. It sucks it went down like that, but those interested in keeping in touch can do so here.

 

how much was it to run? i am going to miss all the information that was available there. not much elsewhere for xa's. is it too late to revive it?

 

I don't know, he never gave me an answer before the site went down. Im not sure if it can be "revived" at this point or not.
My guess is no, I don't think anyone is willing to take over from the technical side of things that knows how to run and fix forum issues.
I would have, but I really don't the time with work and school.

 

i got my service manuals on cd

 

oooooooooohhhhh k.

 

Wish I saved all the diy section on a disk lol

same here

 

It would of been nice if it was announce that it was going down. Some of us would've come up with something to keep it going.

 

I agree. And there were def a few new members that had started member journals from other countries. I enjoyed the journals the most because you could track your progress and others.

(btw, did you get that nintendo towel i sent ya russ?)

 

I remember a bit more a year we tried to raise money by having raffles on people who would buy team ist decals and the iSt battery tie down. it did help a bit but the lack of people buying and then there was really no new traffic.

One of the best site I got be part of.. it was pretty much drama free
