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.

  • Update:

    I asked the community manager if they could advise what triggers the spam filter and just got a reply.

    They are not sure why the spam filter flags certain posts. They say that from other reports, it could happen if you add links, copy & paste large quantities of text or edit the content more than once.

    They did also apologise again that my posts went into moderation, and thanked me for my patience.

    Thanks P.

    What I'm really really struggling with here is twofold:

    1.  Is anyone taking ownership of this massive problem and trying to effect changes?

    2.  Either way, will someone who is responsible for the running of the forum (?the 'community manager') take the step to communicate with us (publicly, here on the forum) what the prognosis is for the disease that is now killing the forum?

    At least then people would know where they stand - it's bizarre that we are expected to suffer these problems with the added burden of a total lack of knowledge about what is, if anything, being done to remedy it.

    Members need to know whether to leave.

    I will almost certainly complain directly to NAS (who may know nothing about the problems here) but right now my spoons are low.

    Would it be worth getting together to formulate a letter to of complaint to send NAS that could be signed collectively by as many members here as possible?

    And then offer to set up a forum that has been designed by form members, to be used by forum members?

    I reckon the job can be done on all fronts. We have English teachers, and Web designers on board.

    And the Author of the books surname will not be allowed to be seen.

    es, but I have seen things that NT's wouldn't believe!

    Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion.

    I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate.

    All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain."

    With thanks to Pixiefox too.

    Thank you. I was particularly please with CeeBeebies.

    You just made me spray coffee all over the table!

    Excellent contemporisation of the quote.
