    just called around GT came down to 219 she isnt sure if you can use the 10% coupon because she says they are discounted already, she would need a coupon to scan to see if it will work but the mgr said No at first so im assuming the end result would be No if i got there

    Here's da plan:

    "Basic sched - at about 12:30 eastern time I will stop taking new member registrations and also shut down the board for a few minutes while I clean it up and export the proper files…backup.
    Then I will put it back up in read-only format.

    At about 1am eastern, my forum-move dude will start the import into the new system. If things go OK, I will then try to get some sleep from 2 or 3am on.
    When and if I wake up…...things should be coming along. I suspect that by noon at the latest, the imports will be done and the basics of the new board will be in place for me to check….I will do this behind the scenes (and may also have the mods in there…...). Then I have to set all the new permissions…as to the forums and what groups can do and see.

    If all of that works out, you will notice these forums are not reachable any longer and the new ones will be up in their place. Depending on luck and skill, this might be as soon as Thursday mid-afternoon or as late as 2013…..

    If, on the other hand, you see these same forums up and running tomorrow night, you know something went very wrong."

    I don't see why they wouldn't allow you to use a 10% coupon. I used it when they were $197/ton in the fall. Then again they were the regular bags and at least the Lowes around me now have the "special" platinum bags. Even though we know they are the same as the regular bags Lowes says they are much better. Heck they say platinum on the bag so they must be better right? I actually picked up three bags of the optimum just to see and I thought they had a LOT more dust in the bags and they produced a lot more carbon buildup in my burnpot.

    because they were " discounted " already i think they have been taking a hit on pellets to be honest and their creeping their way out of it break it down in your mind @ 175 per ton where is the money? from sawdust to your stove lot of machinery fuel and paychecks

    I agree with you but what I am saying is that i dont think the coupon says anything about already discounted items. If they want to play slimy i wont be buying from them.

    Shoot my friend...Pellets are making you a little cocky, I figure two Hillbillies from Ohio (Myself and Dex), could come up with a plan to haul 90% of your stash away while you and the wife are sleeping!! Never get too confident, We're watching you (or at least your pellets)!!!

    There will definitely be something for mobile users!

    The developers of the new forum are coming out with a mobile style - which should automatically make the forum work easier on mobile devices.

    We also may support tapatalk - which I think cost the user a few bucks ($2.99), but you can use the same app to follow any tapatalk-enabled forum.

    I think the mobile skin will do for 95% of forum members.....that should be available within 2 months or so. There are other mobile styles, but it's not worth installing one since an "official" one is in the works.....

    Just be careful Dex doesn't appreciate too many compliments and flattery. ;-P

    Thats awesome as I use two Android devices from time to time, and am looking forward to an app.

    Thanks Web

    Wouldn't mind that at all......

    Been wanting to schedule a "GTG" like the guys in the Hearth Room do at Woodstocks (Soapstone Stove) Factory. They had a pretty good turn out. With people as far as Michigan making it out.

    I personally think a tour of Englander would be a pretty good time.. Im pretty far away myself. But a Roadtrip with a close Forum member, or not, with a Tour of the facility. Also may get a peak at the New "Beer Can" from Englander, that Mike has spoke of.

    Just a thought. But I'd be down.
