Website Downtime

I would like to take the time to apologize for the website downtime we have experienced this week. We should be back up and running as of now. If you receive any errors while using this website, PLEASE report them in the bugs section of the forum or email mail[at symbol]talkspringfield[period]com. We had to restore a backup that really didnt exist because of our previous web host. We have since taken our webhost to another company that so far has outdone itself.

You will start to see features added to this website as time goes by. Most importantly this front page will be filled with interesting articles and images from Springfield IL and Springfield only. If you would like to write an article, feel free to register a account with the front page and create one. Once that article is written, we will review and approve it if appropriate. Thank you.

SJ-R has a comments section, but most of the communication got lost between the actual stories comments. Read the rest of this entry »
