Re: Well isn't this interesting. . . .
Choovie,

I had problems too. I set up my ksrurn account and even replied to DaveAA thread. Then tried to log in again but couldn't. Was told to log in with a temporary password sent to me. I couldn't do it. Either technologically challenged or password wouldn't work. They sent me another and I got on and changed to permanent password and edited so as to not get email notices. Now I can't find the first 2 threads on boomer and beyond.


Is CR going away or are we being stolen by aliens?

Re: Well isn't this interesting. . . .
DaveinAA's thread got zapped. Maybe the party's getting too big and out of control.

I'm rating responses to my thread, if anyone's interested.

Oh, and I couldn't cut and paste into a message without disabling pop-up ads. Ain't gonna.

chooverina.

I had to use my email address as log on name and then the password. If it doesn't work; it gives you the option to retrieve your password. I think they'll send you a new temp until your changes are made.

Re: Well isn't this interesting. . . .
I asked assorted questions of CR. they are predictable. (that is, the questions) The answers are as follows: (italics mine)

"The running log transition will occur sometime this month (we are not sure of the exact date). When the logs have been migrated, the login page will be on Coolrunning, and more information about the migration will be provided. Also, your log data will be saved, as we are transferring the data over, and not deleting it. Hope this clears up any confusion."

(#2) "Unfortunately, I don't have the answers to some of your questions regarding the migration, because Active is handling that mainly on their end. What I can tell you though is that Coolrunning.com isn't getting taken offline or anything like that. We're just moving the logs over to Active's tool because it offers better functionality than what our servers can currently offer. If you'd like, feel free to register at Active with a new/original username. At worst, if you didn't end up using it the option would be there in the future if you wanted to use that username on Active's forums, etc.
Sorry I can't provide more elaborate details, but hopefully this offers a little better insight to the transition."

Re: Well isn't this interesting. . . .
Okay - this is news to you all, but I am secretly a super hero. Honestly - I am a miniature Amazon warrior. I measure in at 62", but am really a tall woman in a short woman's body.

Okay - we can do this. The logical move is to go over to our new host, think long and hard in advance of what your second, third or fifth (4 is a bad number) handle choice would be. Sign in - appreciate the new tools and let us know who you are.

Okay - Mustang Sally - quick - who was she in 2006. Exactly - Mustang Sally is our gal and we love her at MS.

Tramps - you must stay - really.

dg9 - we will help name you - it will be fun!

Any questions?

Hi Egret - jumping up and down waving wildly - or something like that!

Re: Well isn't this interesting. . . .
I see that we've been asked by the moderator over there (Rob) to refrain from posting. The link to the new board was put up in error today and the new board will not be ready til the fall. So the threads that have disappeared have likely been deleted by him because it's premature to begin posting over there.

Re: Well isn't this interesting. . . .
I make a point out of waiting until the last minute to do anything anyway, so if I turn my computer on one day and coolrunning dot com is not my home page, I guess I'll deal with it then.

All this talk of beta something or other and temporary passwords for different accounts bla bla bla is giving me a headache, besides CR loads fast (usually) and this active thing seems to be moving at a snails pace.

Once again, the little guy is swallowed up by an evil mega corporation. another metaphor for the times in which we live, oh well, on the bright side, I've wanted a different username for some time now.

Re: Well isn't this interesting. . . .
I'm not creative enough to think of a new handle....
Can I just be "the CRboomer formerly known as...."?

Re: Well isn't this interesting. . . .
If this CR forum is staying, then I have no use for active whatsoever. They can keep their running log, wherever the **** it's located, and I'll find another one. I thought they were shutting down this forum or I wouldn't have even bothered to register over there. They are like the 500 lb. gorilla, trying to have a little something for every sport from soccer to badminton and it's all badly done from what I can see. I'd rather go run a maze than navigate that site. Let somebody get a monopoly on something like doing on-line race registration and they want to take over the world. Blah!

My head hurts and I'm going to look for my ruby slippers. At least they got the "rookie" part right.
Do you think this is premature notification?

Re: Well isn't this interesting. . . .
I am repeating what I said before. I think that is is in our best interest that everyone has at least one other person connected to this thread, who has your email and phone number. If someone gets lost "in the shuffle" we can rescue you.

It would appear that we can continue talking in here, but only the running log is going to change.

Make sure you are backing up the running log. One day it will be gone.......where?.....who knows.
