Hopefully the site will be up later today and those that committed to helping out with the site will follow through with their promises and get it up ASAP. When you make a pledge to do anything, paid or unpaid, it just comes down to integrity in the end when keeping your word.
Toby, I don't know if you saw Scott's reply on www.tbka.org/forum but here it is just in case. It doesn't look like anyone actually ever read it so I just wanted to pass this along.

I was emailed Toby's post about dedication/integrity on FKA and how every day the site is down is hurting TBKA and losing possible members.

Well, it's been up for months now Toby and I have not received so much as a rider profile from you Toby, let alone an email asking how you could help.

I find it absurd that you question my integrity after the time I have put into the TBKA site and demand that it be fixed ASAP, when you have not so much as provided a profile. Absurd, but not unexpected. You take just about every opportunity to try to make drama and definitely don't miss a chance to throw any possible cheap shot my way.
Same old shi.t and why I grow more disinterested with the local scene every day.
Is it true that you haven't even contributed but you are questioning Skyway Scott's integrity on a public forum for something he is doing for free?

No respect. You should be ashamed of yourself.

kitekris whoever you are, is it true that you have admitted to not even knowing any of us? How educated can you be on the whole issue, I wonder? As a new rider, I would think it would be YOU that would not want to disrespect anyone on this forum, just a thought...

I saw the post, and I have intentionally ignored it seeing as I did not make any promises or commitments so I really have no obligation now do I? Steve of TBKA is one of my best friends though and I just posted my opinion. I also ignored a call from Scott because I knew it would not be a positive call or do anything remotely constructive. I posted an OPINION, and I am entitled to it. I also took Scott's name out of my initial post shortly after posting it if you didn't notice...putting his NAME in the post was the one wrong I admit to on my part and I took care of that. Other than that, NO COMMENT good buddy.

Scott, if you want to call me now that we have all had time to cool off and CALMLY DISCUSS the issue, I would be more than happy to have a civil conversation with you, after all we are all friends and depend on each other out there.

The site is back online, but there are still a few bugs to work out and some rearranging to do. Most pages are accesible from the main page at: http://www.tbka.org/
The good news is that we didn't lose most of the content, including the gallery, rider profiles, launch sites, etc.
You can send pics, articles, or anything else you would like to add to the site to localsrock@tbka.org and they will be uploaded ASAP.

The Treasure Island beach cleanup is this Sunday, Oct. 5th at 5:00 PM. Look for the Shade tents at the T.I. public beach access, across from the new Publix.
Come on out for a good cause and meet some of the locals.
See you there

The site is looking pretty good. I've been browsing around trying to kill some time at work so i'm using my phone to browse but well done from what I can see.

Thanks, but it really does need a lot of work to get it back to where it was. Don't expect anything very soon.
Be sure to offer our new webmaster a cold one when you see him, he goes by "BoBo the I.T. Clown"
Personally, I don't think he has a clue what he's doing....

after the beach cleanup you should all head up to Madeira Beach and come say hi. I'll be at Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. for most of the day.

Who is kitekristrudo? Just someone wanting to hide behind a fake name and IP address. I think we should all avoid replying to his post until we meet this secret person at the beach. Don't fall into his drama trap Toby.

I looked at all posts from "kitekris" and I found one that seems to lead that it is a girl.

I think most of us are into this sport for the right reasons. Let's keep something in perspective. The world is in trouble. Things are not going well IMO. We fly kites.

Nuff said!
