Title: This Board doesn't like me!!!!!
Post by Dickie Mint on Sep 2^nd, 2009, 1:13pm

:-[

Not having logged in for some time I tried to Tuesday. It didn't know me!

So I re-registered as I had before. That being allowed demonstrated it had forgotten me!

Then I never received the invitation email to which I had to reply. Instead on logging in just now, I didn't notice at first that it had logged me in because I was mesmorised by the error message saying I need to supply a User ID, which I had.

I wanted to reply to the administrator to say thank you for setting me up, but I wasn't allowed to send a personal message until I had made 1 post. >:(

So this is that post.
I wonder if the much reduced chat on this forum is down to others being lost ????

Regards,
Richard.

PS: I will be making post 2 on the History pages.......

We think Dickie's problems are due to the Site changing its software some time ago.
The change was due to the plague of pornographic and advertising posts that had invaded the site. There were over 200 attempts to destroy the site every day. All had to be removed individually every night.

We have asked him to log-in again. All should be OK.

Yup, it's working OK now, thanks.
