Board Issues
Board Issues
First, for our members who haven't re-registered yet, and came here and is wondering WTF happened, and why your account isn't working, Plunderer had tried to do the latest upgrade on the board, and it was a disaster, and we ended up losing the database. He has apologized in another thread, and it is what it is. But we're happy to roll on a new board, Plunderer is very busy with life, and he made me an admin ONLY to deal with the day-to-day tech stuff. I will not be involved in any issues of problems between members, and that's my own choice.
So, if you haven't signed back up yet, please re-register under your old handle, and I'll activate your account as soon as I see it. I have to delete about 100-200 fake accounts a day right now.
I set up only a few forums, since there are only about 25 of us, I didn't think we need tons of forums and sub-forums. If you'd like to see forums we don't have and think there will be enough traffic on them for a new forum, make a suggestion and we'll talk. Any other suggestions or needs, PM me or post here. I'll watch this thread for sure.
Yes, we have lost some functionality and features. However, that is temporary. I'm going to work with Plunderer as his time allows to get some of the plug-ins put in, so that we can get that back, such as being able to post YouTubes. There's one I'm wanting to get up, that will stop this constant influx of fake accounts. There's one account, DEE22789, that's likely a fake, but there's some possibility it isn't fake, so I'm leaving it up for now. If they post and it's spam, PM me immediately and I'll nuke it and the threads. Please, if someone gets through and posts spam threads, PLEASE, do NOT post on those threads. I just want to delete the posts as soon as I can get to a computer or phone.
Thanks everyone!

No hurry on the stuff. Posting a link gets a person to a you tube just about as fast as one embedded.

You're doing an excellent job. It's always a hassle and it can be a thankless one. Thank you.

Let's hear it for GoU and P. They are working very hard to bring RFL back.
Love of Country is not Blind Patriotism. It is not devotion to one person or one party. It is knowing fighting for your country is single most important thing you can do. Do not accept the notion violence is the answer.
Re: Board Issues
Now, now, let’s not make this a big thank you thread. Let’s stick to the issues at hand!

Re: Board Issues
If you read through this thread, you will understand what has happened to us. We have the board back. Plunderer is busy with his own life and issues, and doesn't have time for the board. I have only limited capabilities on the board, and can't install plugins, which is what is required to imbed YouTube videos. So, until he can find the time and inclination to do some work on the board, it is what it is.lucytalk wrote: ↑Sun Oct 16, 2022 11:05 pm why is there no way to embed a youtube video? you don't want me to have to sing in what are you listening to thread or any thread but i so will

Re: Board Issues
Post your youtube links and above them indicate what they are to.
Blind links are bad.
Friends don't let friends rickroll people.
(this should be done for anything, but especially for video).
I guess I kinda find it surprising phBB doesn't have this as built in functionality yet - along with spoiler tags.

Yeah, still don't work.

I sigh in your general direction.
Re: Board Issues
We discussed it. He has many sites on his service, and I am NOT a computer technician or programmer. I could break something, that might affect other sites. He's not comfortable with it, and I certainly don't wish to ask him to do something he's not comfortable with.
Re: Board Issues
What kind of other sites does he have? Are you able to share info? You mean message boards or what? Just curious.gounion wrote: ↑Mon Oct 17, 2022 2:21 pm We discussed it.

Re: Board Issues
I was just explaining why I would have asked in the first place.
I wasnt trying to get into his personal stuff...
I am inviting people from Randi Rhodes YT chat, fellow libs and progs...I am asking them to tell me their username so I can tell you, etc.
Dont know if any will take me up on it or not, but I thought we could use a few more folks. If you decide you dont want anyone or any specific person, that is up to you of course, I will just let you know their username.

Except for greengrass, of course. I have seen a few accounts lately I suspect are his. They've been torched.

He's already on this board while making more multiple sock accounts. Why is this allowed?

Because we don't have a moderator, and I won't do it. Myself, I think it's hilarious the joke he's made of himself, and he knows we all know he's a lying sack of crap.carmenjonze wrote: ↑Mon Oct 17, 2022 3:55 pm He's already on this board while making more multiple sock accounts.

Marindem was destroying the board. It couldn't continue. I confered with Plunderer who said he was banning him, and I just carried out his wishes.carmenjonze wrote: ↑Mon Oct 17, 2022 5:03 pm But marindem got kicked off. Why not this asshole who is bent on breaking board rules?
