Welcome Back

Honeymoon · Sat Sep 14, 2013 10:05 am

I read here the last months, since I came back home from a trip to Virginia.

I'm so glad, that the forum is back, so I registered me.

Greetings from Germany!

Why would you go and confuse everyone like this?

I'm confusing myself

Thank you for all your hard work getting this site back up and running

Thanks, V, for all your help setting up TBC once again.

Why do those loons pick on horses? Now some idiot(s) stole their trophies from the museum!!!

What's the latest on Jackson Bend since his 'fabulous second place' in the Forego? That's really all I care about right now!

Well, that and Wise Dan winning on Sunday! Go Wise Dan!

I'm interested in that, too! He's back working at Calder so I'm curious about his connections' plans for his next start.

Thanks. I wondered if he was back in Florida. Was sooooo proud of him that day! I love that little horse ... as you do.

If you hear something, please let us know.

Thanks for getting the site back up and running!

I decided to change my user name to something more racehorse related, so instead of Elphie I'm now Le Beau Bai

How did you get "formerly Elphie" to show under your posts?

User Control Panel --> Profile (from left drop-down) --> Edit signature (from right drop-down)

Ah, thanks, I already figured it out on my own, I guess at the same time you were posting these instructions, but I appreciate your help....I think that feature wasn't there yesterday.

Thank you V for bringing the site back and for all the work and time you invest in keeping it together!

I can't improve anything that has been posted except to say I have been a TBC member since 1998 and this is the FIRST place I go to when I'm online.

Bravo to V for her steadfastness over the years and through this latest debacle. This is a horse racing forum...just proves how stupid hackers are...Syria..

.really

...duh!

BaroqueAgain1 · Sat Sep 14, 2013 9:58 pm

It's good to be back, and great to see this forum beginning to grow out of the ashes of the hacker arson.
Strange...this is the second forum of which I was a member that has been gutted in less than a year. I'm a refugee from the TVG Forum and, although we weren't able to stop that shutdown, at least we were given some warning. Gave us time to save some content before the lights were turned off.
This forum was one I discovered relatively recently, but I came to cherish all the information, photos, videos and stories that this site had. To see it all deleted because of some azzhole hackers infuriates me.
To see TBC return from that attack and flourish again will be the best revenge.

Personal Ensign · Sat Sep 14, 2013 10:31 pm

V,
I agree with you! The new format will take some time to get used to and for those of us who chose to take the opportunity to change our user names (ie LadyWeaver to Personal Ensign) it is a rebirth of sorts.
Thanks for all you do in hosting the platform and thanks to all the members far and wide who continue to contribute to this forum.

Is there a control to get the last posts to display first>???

sweettalk · Sun Sep 15, 2013 3:32 am

the best thing that happened all day was my mum calling and sending me a link to get here. not sure if that means this place is great or my life is uneventful. probably the first, cuz this means my first two posts here are thanking V for making sure this place came back.

Della · Sun Sep 15, 2013 9:57 am

Just so very glad to have this forum and community back. I don't post often but have been reading every day for at least 10 years. I really appreciate the knowledge and expertise that this forum brings together.
Thank you, V, for bringing it back, and everyone else who is keeping the faith!
