Dead and Gone?

Hey guys, Scott here just checking in after a really rough month.

Just about a month ago, we started to change over servers since our current server could not handle the load. Well, about two days after the order was put in, my partner owner Greg got into a pretty bad car accident. He was t-boned by a drunk driver while driving his Chevrolet Impala by a Dodge Ram doing over 50mph, and pushed into another vehicle. He was rushed to the hospital after prying away the passenger door. For a few days thereafter, he was in pretty bad shape, and mostly unconscious. Needless to say he's still lucky to be alive. Even better, he is expected to make an almost full recovery after a LOT of physical therapy and rehabilitation.

Well, after this happened, our old host kicked us off the server. And it was the least of my concerns with one of my best friends in the hospital. After about a week, I thought about it but realized he's the one that handles the server, and I don't even have all of the passwords for everything. I talked to him, but he couldn't remember all of them himself, and also stated that he no longer wants to be a part of this site, as an owner, administrator, or user. I respect this, and so now I am going to bust-ass to get the site back up on my own with the help of our other admin and owner Rob.

Please be patient while we try to get the site back up. I can't guarantee all the data will be back, but I will try my hardest. It is not an easy task, and it's been a rough month for me, so just please don't make it any harder for me.

Thank you,
Scott

P.S. I also relocated with my employer to Tennessee, and have been really busy moving all my stuff and selling my house in Arizona!
