Yes, reliability of BT1 is my main concern as well. Other people have had issues with banning, moderators, etc., but if hardware/software/support issues remain the same, I’m afraid it’s just a matter of time until the next BT1 crash. I suspect many of us would like to go back to BT1 as the knowledgebase there is/(was ?) like nowhere else on earth, but having a “backup” site would really be a lifesaver! Change the name if need be, but this site has been a real Godsend!

Thanks again DocJohn! (and ZS too for the temp chat area)

P.S.
The vote tally as of today (8/31/06) continues to overwhelmingly support keeping BT2.
