Hi guys,
Just a quick update:
-
The site went down while I was on vacation. For some truly unexplained reason, the site has a habit of crapping out during tiki oasis, and my annual vacation.
-
This year, while I had internet access, I decided to ride it out instead of taking time out of my vacation to see if I could get it fixed. My apologies; sometimes these things solve themselves if you wait them out. This time it did not.
-
The report on what went wrong is not complete yet. I hope to post about it soon.
-
For those who don't know, I'm the owner of Tiki Central! Aloha!
-
As the owner of the website, I'd never just shut it down, remove everything everyone has said, and go away. Who could ever do anything like that? (cough purplejade) You guys made this place what it is ... its your words, photos, and contributions, and I'll do my best to see it stays here as best I can.

Grand Memberships are always welcome and appreciated(!), but not required. While the server is costly, Humu and I gladly split it (across many sites, including critiki, ooga-mooga, and our professional and personal sites.) It's never been about margins, or costs vs. profits. We keep the sites running because we love them. I've not had the time in recent years to make big changes and improvements to Tiki Central, and so I have not been actively expiring Grand Memberships as they come due. Occasionally I do, but it's no uncommon for a 1 year grand membership to last 2 or more years before it expires.
-
There's more to come .... hopefully soon. Take care, and mahalo!
