Hi Folks,

I received an email during the night, from an old pal over at ATS, who informed me that Nightstar was not expected to see out the night.
Now unfortunately confirmed - Nightstar has passed, following a period of ill health.
Nightstar (Lorraine) was one of the founder members (and longtime hostess) of "The Shed" series of threads on ATS.

My understanding is that she has not been in the best of health for some time now, but I don't have any further details at this time. I have asked my friend to keep us posted, and will update the thread if I hear anything further.
As ATS itself is down just now, I am unable to seek clarification or further details from there.

For those who don't know... "The Shed" is/was a magical place where many friends were made and many tales and adventures were shared. It was an odd mix of collaborative fantasy story-telling, and real-life friendship & chat.
Lorraine was a shining light there, always lending an ear to anyone who needed someone to talk to.
Her kind heart and caring nature will live with me, and many other Shed-dwellers who were touched by her kind soul, for a very long time to come.

I would ask that you, as fellow Rogues and kindred spirits, spare a kind wish, a prayer, or positive thought for my friend Nightstar at this time.

'Raine - you are in my thoughts now and forever. I shall be raising a glass in your honour tonight.
Safe journey if it is indeed your time to pass. I'll see you on the other side (as we often joked about!)

Gx

Explanation: It is with a heavy heart that I post this message ...

Azrael is/was mine and my brothers official cat [snipped, microchipped & bought from pet store with papers costing about $600] for the past 20+yrs ...



She lived the life of a Princess with her every care and want supplied in full.

Personal Disclosure: She has been off both her food and drink and she has lost some control of her back legs and has since become immobile during the past few days now and tonight looks like it just might be her time to pass over!

She had and excellent run at life and I am glad to have known her and taken care of her.

I ask for your prayers for her new journey ok.

Fellow Rogues,

Apologies for the recent outages!

It looks like I've managed to get the site back up and our Tech Team are still investigating the cause/issues for the site being unavailable.

I've temporarily had to disable Shoutbox, but would hope that we can get that back up soon.

Dear folks.

I found out a couple of days ago that a dear online and also RL friend passed away in October 2022.

I had tried to contact him in on many occasions for the past 6 months and now I know why.

Cody and I first met up over on ATS a few years ago and after bantering around with each other on many threads along with a couple of other members who can now be found here, we became very close...

This was our last thread together over there : https://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread977869/pg1

Cody599 : This is for you my soul brother.

Throughout your life your brought many a smile (thousands even) to many a persons face...

You were a good person...

You never judged...

I never saw you angry...

You went through some hard shit but still kept that smile on your face...

You and I went through some seriously shitty stuff in our past and we shared this together throughout our tears and laughter...

You know I am pretty crap at writing down how I feel and that it is easier to talk face to face (And one day that will happen again when we find each other at the top of the mountain of reunion and share a good bottle of whatever together.. whilst you wear your Cowboy hat and me my gasmask.)

"I am better for knowing you, better for loving you, better for having met you. May you be as blessed in the next life, my friend, as I was in this one by knowing you." (Author unknown but this is how I feel).

For you my friend and soul brother :

Hey fellow Rogues,

When you see this banner on top:



It means that I've switched the theme to our Dummy Theme - which is a theme where I test lines of codes and changes before applying them on the Volare theme. It's a safe net, of sorts.
 
The site works just as well under the Dummy theme so you can continue on what you were doing while I'm playing   I mean screwing things up I mean fixing things in the background...

If you are on mobile (cell phone or tablet) and are getting an authorization code mismatch while trying to log in..

Go to the Portal - on Cell & Tablets, that would be the second icon from the left, beside the Home icon.

Logging in there will let you in.

This isn't a site issue, it's a platform issue which will be resolved in the next upgrade.
