List of what is currently wrong with the forum

Deleted User

I was wondering if most people who contribute here are fine with no current problems, so I thought a list might be useful.

I'm rather despairing at the moment of its brokenness and absence of communication from NAS about a timescale (or anything) for sorting these.

It's making me wonder whether to bother any longer.

1. I know that   has a message coming up in orange at the top saying his account may/will be deleted.

2. I keep being logged out (orange banner at the top with a seconds countdown).

Is anyone else getting anything still (or even unable to use their original account?).

Has anything been sorted?

Thanks.

    I think we could self-organise and build our own. There are enough coders here that could work on it if they would be willing to participate. Building our own gives us exactly what we want and we have some fairly specific needs that we might not find in any other existing service.

    As this one seems thoroughly broken, I would welcome this.

    I'd hope though that the regular contributors here would use it and of course there's no guarantee.

    Peter and Ausomely Autistic have set up their own forums since I've been present here (2+ years).

    The Microstock Group forum has been in use for many years and is successful.

    It's the only example I know of an individual person setting up a forum for a group and the only other type of forum I have used (ie photography).

    https://www.microstockgroup.com/

    Thank you the suggestion.

    I think there are a handful of people who would be very good at the tech logistics. Then it would be a question on deciding how it should be run. 

    I would loathe the thought that the posters here really might be thought of as children.

    But it's not just the NAS forum. Other social media sites, especially if the main company begins with an m, are just as bad if you end up with problems. Everything automated, bots should 'off with your head' and letting bad actors get away with it as after all, they aren't violating community standards, automated systems that basically don't work and have you running around in circles. All very fair, absolutely dandy.
