You talking about Hot-lips from MASH?

20Ducks · 06-13-2007, 09:22 PM

Nah, Lips....our illustrious mod from Hong Kong. Always a gentleman.

Mark and GV From Belgium would be a nice addition. Especially the never ending description of the Z4 stereo systems.

AlanL · 06-13-2007, 11:15 PM

One nice part to the wide flung locations of the old Z4um participants was the fact that it was always web browsing/posting time somewhere on the planet....

zednik · 06-13-2007, 11:20 PM

OK, OK......it'd be a good thing if Z4um was back but.......WTF? How hard is it to get the stupid thing back up and running.....what am I missing here? is it ROCKET SCIENCE FOR CHRIST'S SAKE?????

DEW'S Z4 · 06-14-2007, 01:24 AM

Someone is blowing smoke up our asses by claiming Z4um will be back up. Bullshit.

Let's get past it people. Z4um is gone.

Delete it from your favorites, stop checking it on a daily basis, and move on!

It took me a month but I've finally given up. Too bad as I haven't attached much here yet.

DEW'S Z4 · 06-14-2007, 01:24 AM

BTW that is called tough love in case you were wondering

i'm guessing a completely fubarred mysql database.

I'd load the latest version of phpbb or the slashdot look alike and get on with life, bring up the old in a different instance, do a little dumping and uploading and get on with life. But then, it is easy to armchair quarterback.

The day I stumbled in here I was about to register Zedforum.com and get something running myself.

PhilDZ4 · 06-14-2007, 09:11 AM

thanks for that.

Yal · 06-14-2007, 09:18 AM

glad to be of assistance. I'm from the government, I'm here to help you.

I think this calls for a moment of silence and remembrance....

What about GV the Belgium? We need him damnit!

PhilDZ4 · 06-14-2007, 04:42 PM

You should go find him. I bet he's lurking around over at one of the EU-centric Z car websites.

So much potential; what a waste.

Godspeed · 06-15-2007, 01:35 PM

There has to be some economic potential to sell what was z4um, right? I'm at a loss as to why we as a group can't at least buy the rights and retain the huge amount of info that was lost when 4um shut down... it's just a matter of talking to the right guy and I have no idea who that is.

Godspeed - there are a number of people who also feel the same - we know who the right person is

I've had some info from Pete (Hollpe on Z4um) and Pete, along with a couple of the old mods, are continuing to try and get Z4um back up and running, although as you can appreciate the circumstances surrounding Amir (Z4ce) are difficult to say the least.

I am 100% confident that Z4um will be back.

Yal · 06-15-2007, 04:02 PM

just delete this post please.

It's a possibility that the box they were on got hacked and db corrupted and the server was subsequently rekicked (OS installed on new drive and old drive slaved).
