We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :)
Please help by posting all issues here.
The forum will be down for about an hour this weekend for maintenance. I apologize for the inconvenience.

Joe Huffman (Mr. Boomershoot) just got some shooter's glasses that record video and audio. This looks like another good option for OC evidence gathering. I hope they come out with a version that's in plain black rather than camo (and support for prescription lenses would be...
