A few of us have had trouble with the board for 2 days now. Takes a long time to do anything, times out, message from pro-boards about too much traffic, etc. Never saw this before the last 2 days. Also malfunctions on PMs. Someone said maybe pro board overload? Possible people that don't post much have not seen it, as it comes and goes. Hopefully they will fix it soon. Ok misunderstood...try rebooting?? Some times helps. |

WHAT is wrong with this board the last 2 days? Frustrating, and it is not just me. ?? Explain..possible missing it. I don't know. I've noticed that it slows down quite a bit and now there's a bunch of weird flashing ads out of place where the ad bar is at the top of the screen. I think someone may have fed a virus to the ad section at the top of the page where the ads are advertised. This just started last night for me. |

.... when it comes to thread titles.. I've seen a few around here and there that "spin" it to whatever the poster's opinion may be on a subject. then when you read the thread you find out that the title has little to do with the actual contents. starting now, if one is seen, you will likely be asked to make your title something more appropriate. and if you choose not to, don't be surprised if it's done for you.. ~moon mod Re titles AND POLICING OURSELVES: Here is the set-up: Thread title is something like: "This Author Nails It" The OP is something like: "What do you think?" and a link. Is this "teaser" tactic something we should ask of posters not to do when we see it or is it just my idiosyncratic issue?  |

Aren't people grown up enough to reach their own conclusions and argue their own POV if they disagree with the title? Should be.

Just the facts............. about moving threads to EE. SOME of us are not welcome on EE that NEVER did one wrong thing on EE. Seems they can come and go here with no problems, but God forbid some of us try to go there and have fun. SO-- we try to have fun here when the mods will allow it.

I've never seen anyone ordered off this board. ... Ordered off? I haven't been ordered to ... since I left the Navy. (Well at least not any "orders" I have followed anyway.) |

It'll be a cold day in hell before I engage in a battle for my right to post on a "social" message board. Not happening. I COULD, but why would I? If I want to fight, why would I go to EE?

No, Dez. Dawg introduced me there, no problem, then a mod from the old boards came in ranting on me to her friends, made it REAL clear what my reception would be there, and when I commented on that "welcome" she told me to "not let the door hit me on the way out." Whatever. I'm fine here. Some of us don't get along that great, but we don't run people off our board. I doubt that would even be allowed here. Whatever. Private party, I guess.

If it was a mod from the old but not th new...just tell her to blow it out her....and ignore and give her a  , and Ok i know you don't do that, but if she persisted...report her for stalking abnd harrasing. What was before, some where else, not to be here. I don't go there often, honestly, mostly silly and boring, to me but occasionally, though most threads of no interest..I did a post today a light one....but just not for me, most times. |

I'm confused by the THREAD POLICY in terms of duplicate threads.
In my opinion there are ASPECTS of the same story that deserve to be treated as a new story.
It is easy to miss NEW NEWS if it is buried in OLD THREADS.
Would anyone read a newspaper that confined all stories about a particular person or place under one title? Would anyone have any idea what the new news was?

Suggest if it's your original thread and now a new wrinkle comes out, try doing what I do on some of my threads on topics, post the new article or thought and since you thread, change the header of the thread to conform to the title of the post..possible a note on the first post in BOLD explaining what your doing thus all post on the topic in one.
Just a suggestion.

Whatever. I'm fine here. Some of us don't get along that great, but we don't run people off our board. I doubt that would even be allowed here. Whatever. Private party, I guess. krickitt-how about a little honesty here. No one kicked or ordered you out of the EE boards. On the EE board Mad Dawg Wiccan created a thread in your name welcoming you. You wrote "I'm SO glad this refugee board is more laid back. Only been banned once-- and I was framed, your honor!!!!!!" After the former mod Long Sam (now Sammy who by the way was the mod who permanently banned you from the MSN Money boards) read your comments, she posted "You were banned because you are a certified fruit loop....... or in every day language.... a pain in the ass.", you then posted "Long Sam, I assume? Thx for the welcome. P&M suits me fine, come to think off it. See you guys around." It was only after your comment to Long Sam/Sammy did Long Sam/Sammy then post "It's called........ don't let the door hit you in the arse on your way out." Long Sam/Sammy was not the only former MSN Money board moderator who posted comments about your past behavior on the old MSN Money Boards in that new Proboards EE thread-so did past (and present) EE moderator Rovo. notmsnmoney.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=fun&action=display&thread=6764So no one pushed you out the door krickitt-you exited yourself. |

Krickett -
If you would promise to keep politics off limits over there, I believe you could post in peace.

No, thx, Dawg. Not worth the hassle. We manage to have fun here from time to time. I'm good. I can play with my grandbaby if I get tired of politics. I'm happy for you that "monkey" from elsewhere is off your back. Hopefully for good this time. That must feel SO good!!!

It's a great pity the right of free speech isn't based on the obligation to say something sensible.

How does that number stack up against the number of Obama-bashing threads, and liberal-bashing threads currently extant, ed? It's equal opportunity bashing, in my view. Gets bloody boring no matter which side is doing it. |

If Semi is Kofi, he is my best friend ever on the boards, aside from Marsha, who is equal, but newer. I love him to death.
