To the moderator who deleted my earlier post

Is there a reason you deleted it instead of answering it ?

What harm could that do ? Everybody knew anyway - would just be nice to know if it was a normal fault, or a thing to last...

I noticed that earlier today too...

I assumed it probably was taken off cause it seems to have been fixed.

Perhaps they needed a handy wodge of forum to patch a gasket in the UG, and yours was just right

There still is a problem, too. I can't get to the front page: BEA Front Page

or:

www3 BEA Front Page

my browser just spins out.

Scotty - been locked out myself. Not sure what time the Forum clock will use for this post, but I am typing this at nearly 1100 AM Saturday the 24th, E.S.T. or late afternoon in Western Europe where you are. I was not able to access the site all morning, until now.

Besides that - I only delete posts that are offensive on a personal level. I never delete a post that discusses operational problems about the site. If there are problems, then those who are trying to access the site, and can't are certainly free to complain in my view.

PS: The message posted at 1105PM Nov 23rd - so the message clock is 12 hours behind EST.

First the main server - now the forum has been down most of the day ? What's going on guys ?

Maybe they're in the process of putting up a replacement for the lost video links and had to take the site down to do it...

ROTFLMFAO!

Ahhhh, that was good for a lark, eh what?

Pacman · « **Reply #7 on:** November 26, 2001, 04:03:00 AM »

And ladies and gentlemen, the post above me displays the perfect example of why the original thread was taken down.

That will be five cents please.

Pac...if we can't criticize the website for its current shortcomings without being edited and/or deleted, how would the admin around here ever know what our concerns are and how to draw a bigger subscribing crowd?

Pacman · « **Reply #9 on:** November 27, 2001, 08:07:00 PM »

It's not the criticism itself that's bad, it's the inevitable flaming that comes with it.
