Forum Changes

We are in the process of making some changes to our forums. The first major change is we have restructured most of the forums to be easier to use and to better prioritize what your question is. This has already been done and you can see the new forums here: http://www.68classifieds.com/forums/

The next change is that we are going to link all user accounts from our order system into the forum accounts. When you make an order from us a forum account is not automatically created. So you have to create a new forum account. Because of this we are going to have to sync the systems by username or email. So if you already have a forum account please make sure it is using the same email as what is in our customer area. Any that match will be converted automatically. For those that do not match we are going to create a way for you to update your forum status from our customer area.

Once this is completed only valid customers will be able to post in certain forums. Currently we plan to have all this completed by December 1st, 2009. It may be completed sooner but that will give those with a forum account time to update their email to match.

The final change is we are no longer going to offer any customization help through the ticket system. From our end is getting harder and harder to keep up with questions that are not issues with the script. Plus if we answer questions through the ticket system then it does no good for other customers looking to do the same thing.

Auction To Benefit Bill Cherry

This past April, the owner of a local bicycle store was paralyzed in a motorcycle wreck. He had stopped behind a dump truck, waiting for the car ahead of it to turn left. The person driving the jeep behind him failed to stop and hit him from behind. More info >>

He was airlifted to a local hospital where he spent the next 12 weeks having multiple surgeries and getting to a point where he could get back home. The hospital stay alone cost over $200,000. This doesn’t include the operations, rehabilitation, medicine, etc. From what I understand, he passed $1M months ago.

The driver of the jeep was underinsured. The amount the Cherry’s owe is staggering. Through all this, Bill is still his same old self. He’s got an amazing attitude.
