I will be doing some maintenance to the server this forum is hosted on tonight and tomorrow. During this time, the forum will be unavailable.

Sorry about that.

Rob, Firefox works as well

To prevent downtime, I moved the forum to a new server while I was doing the maintenance and moved it back this morning when the maintenance was over. I assume you just hit it at the right time during the move.

Thanks Tyler! For this and for all the other work you and Stuart do!

Tyler, you are the man.

If you have any extra servers or hard drives left over, please send them my way.

El Tiburon Dec 22, 2013 at 9:42 AM #12

Jack-you'd be a dangerous man with a new hard drive!

For me I've just clicked on the name of the person I want to talk to and then click on "START CONVERSATION".

Stuart Dec 23, 2013 at 11:00 AM #16

Yes, "start conversation" is the same as a private message. There seemed to be some confusion over that and posting a message on someone's profile, which is not private.

Ladyjeeper Dec 23, 2013 at 2:24 PM #17

That's what happened to me. I posted on someone's profile once.....

tyler Dec 23, 2013 at 6:34 PM #18

I disabled the ability to post new profile posts, which should clear up some confusion. I'll find a way to delete the old ones on the page. I was never a fan of that as people thought those messages were private.
