Even so, better to have this site as it is, than not at all James?
I'd say not so much;
Given half the moderators are/ have being inactive for more than 6 months to regularly 2+ years, makes the site more so insecure in the form of old passwords.
That and any user login data transmitted to the servers will be much more easily identifiable as most traffic routed the internet is https thus http traffic stands out more on networking sniffing.
The lack of communication from the owner, regarding the domain and hosting. This has being a problem that has being known and documented for over 3 years now.
The lack of easily findable content due to the search function, means tonnes of duplicate threads.
This site should have being allowed to die and everyone should have moved to https://www.cb500club.org.uk/forum/ key content is easy enough to find and everything could be re-written such as the maintenance/servicing ect. There is very little point of doing in on this site as no one really cares to actually change anything.

No. I PM'd him about a month ago and he did not reply, plus messages in the mod forum.
We have to wait 6 months since his last visit (February) and can then request from Forumotion that ownership is transferred.
It's a shame he lost interest, I know this is a hobby for all of us but there is no need for him to abandon the site.
Watch this space, as they say, there is also the option of the alternative site which was linked further up this thread, which unfortunately is starting from scratch.

I'm sad to say that the CB500 Facebook page is where it's at nowadays. It is hopeless for searching and storing of technical items, but great for photos, videos and uock updates.
There are many more contributors to the FB page, than on here, and it's uock and easy.
Shame really, but that's progress I suppose.
