It looks like we have the SOH forum up and running again, for now! We may have to do a couple of short reboots as and when new applications/services get turned on. Tako_Kichi SOH Admin

Part of the piracy issue is due to the fact that through no fault of ours the old 'SOH.com' domain expired as it was registered to a deceased former founder of SOH. The current Admins tried to keep control of it but the Domain name got parked for a time period as ownership was in dispute. Then as soon as the domain name became available some nefarious entity bought out the name from under us which is why we had to switch from 'SOH.com' to 'SOH.ORG'. Unfortunately the old .com site is now a password and username harvesting site that grabs members sign-in info and sells it on to scammers etc. and there is nothing we can do to stop them (we have tried). I advise anyone with old bookmarks to the .com site to delete them and renew them at the .ORG site (when it's back up). If you happen to go to the old site and you get a 'log in' window that asks for your credentials then LEAVE without clicking on anything! If you did try to log in then change your username and password on ANY site that uses the same login info! Some ISPs are refusing to believe that SOH.ORG and SOH.COM are two different entities and not tied together in any way. 🥵

Hi Charlie, we are making slow progress. Admins can now access the site but there are repairs being carried out by the company that provides the OS system on the server. Once that is done we want to run a server re-boot and test it before opening it up to members again. This was a big 'oopsie' but we don't know the full details yet on how or why. Hopefully it will be back at some point today. Tako_Kichi SOH Admin

Many ISPs are falsely claiming SOH is a pirate site because we have a popular file library. We have been fighting this incorrect assumption for a long time but some ISPs are too stupid to listen! Tako_Kichi SOH Admin

Congrats on a well run race guys. Your routing and execution were excellent. :Applause: Tako_Kichi Team SOH RTWR Race Committee Member 2013

RTWR 2012 Celebration EventTeam SOH cordially invites you to take part in a celebration event to close out the Flight Simulator 'Round the World Race' for 2012. All pilots are welcome and it's a 'fly what ya brung' event but bear in mind the route is roughly 100 Nm in length and the destination runway rather short so choosing the Vin Fizz or a 747-800 may not be the best option!The event will kick off at 18:00 UTC* on Saturday, February 25th but please assemble prior to that time so that we can start the event promptly. Simulator weather and time settings are at the pilot's discretion.We will be using the SOH FS Host server for the flight and the connection details are:IP Address: 72.233.79.242 Port: 23456If you flew with any of the race teams this year please add your team abbreviation to your log-in name so that you can be easily identified by your team mates and by others.AVSIM – AVSFlight Sim – FSSim-Outhouse – SOHe.g. 'XXX_AVS' or 'YYY_FS' or 'ZZZ_SOH'We will also be using the SOH TeamSpeak 3 server and the connection details for that are:Connection Address: _www.sim-outhouse.net Port: 9987NOTE: Remove the leading '_' on the address above as that was needed to prevent the forum software from making it a 'hot link'. In keeping with the 'Start Event' theme the 'Celebration Event' will make use of Van Nuys Airport and 'Runway One-Six Right' in particular.Please assemble at Edwards Air Force Base (KEDW) in plenty of time to get set up. Edwards was chosen as there is plenty of room to get all the aircraft in and ready to start.When the event starts proceed to Van Nuys Airport (KVNY) and perform a 'touch and go' on Runway 16R and then fly on to Catalina Airport (KAVX) where refreshments will be provided by the Race Committee! Rumour has it that Hugh Hefner has been approached to provide Bunny Girls as waitresses but whether we will actually see them there is a different matter!Looking forward to seeing you on Saturday.Team SOH* 18:00 UTC = 13:00 EST = 10:00 PST
