The Ford Barn

Ryan · 05-08-2010, 01:07 PM

In 24 hours, we had 1624 registrations. Not too bad for a bunch of old guys that don't get technology - huh?

In any case, I got yelled at way less than I expected. I think it's gone pretty smoothly so far... With any luck, we will start to get some normalcy next week and be able to focus on old Fords rather than the website.

Thanks for everything guys. I sure do appreciate your patience...

Nice job man! The Barn looks and works great. I do wonder if there needs to be a security code as part of the registration process. There was a ton of spam this morning (I reported as much as I could). It was all from one doofus. Maybe a spambot? I don't know. Just a fwiw suggestion. Anyway, thanks for saving the Barn, I know it'll keep getting better. Mike

Yeah, I will add image capcha's after a week or so... I wanted to take that hurdle down for initial registration... We will get some spam until then.

Thanks Ryan! You are the man...

Once registered, I had trouble getting back on to the A forum. Maybe add that to the stickies?

Just hit the report button when you see the spam and I'll blast it as quickly as I can.

Thanks,

Great site Ryan. But like this fellow, I am having a bit of a problem getting to the A site. End up in all the total Ford Barn or in the T site. Could use a little more instruction for us "old" folk!

Nice job , young man , very good !

Hey Fred,
I'm not sure if you mean your having trouble getting on at first or not but if that's the case....All you have to do is go to the ford barn site, when you get there, look up in the right corner, and you'll see The Forums, click on that, and it will take you to all the forums. There will be model T, model A 1928 to 1931, V8's and so on. just click on model A, and it will take you straight to the A forum. If this is not what you meant, then I apoligize.

Stan/MO.
