Why won't it let me post a thread in the off-topic?

[Bereta_Eder]

I would just like to point out that I can still not post a new thread in the OT and also express my torment at not being able to do so.


Thank you.

[Dis]

hmm I was able to post a few hours after I posted above.

I haven't tried today. I have nothing to post right now. But I could always post a spam thread

[Dis]

now I can't post a thread again

[MarkG]

it comes and goes. we are looking into the issue...

I can't post a thread in the Off-Topic. I've tried for three days now.

Improvise, PH and I managed to convert the "Bristol meet" thread into a discussion about road traffic safety.

Or you can post in this forum and ask the mods to move it.

to prevent the OT from dying?

[DanQ]

To say that the Off-Topic forum is dying is an extreme assertion -- it is simply a random technical difficulty that is affecting only apart of the operation of the forum (i.e. posting new topics and not responding to existing threads).

As Markos suggested, try reloading the forum several times if you are having difficulties in posting a thread in it.

Dan, you are... menschenfern

Why do I get the feeling Markos has a closer bond to the community of their common site than Dan has?

Don't you like the people posting in your forums, Dan? Besides, you always sound like a company worker trying to console customers, while Markos doesn't make that impression.

We're all friends

I did it! I did it!

I would just like to report that after reloading several times I have now a brand new thread opened just for me!

Dan, I know it isn't dying! I was joking

Thanks to both

The only problem is that now that I have managed to open the new thread I forgot what I wanted to post.

Of course I like people posting in Apolyton's forums and contributing to discussions on a number of issues. If I didn't, why would I be engaging in the discussion in the first place? Besides, if I did feel this way and the feeling was mutual this discussion would have never happened in the first place. My writing style is something that I have been working on for a number of years and predates my involvement with Apolyton or even the online community itself in general. I do not consider anyone who visits this site to be a "customer" -- you are a guest and I am your host. Just because I write in a more 'formal' fashion does not mean that I am "suit".

While I was aware that you were at least in part commenting in jest, Paiktis, I responded in a matter so that those who may have taken it literally and/or agreed with that interpretation would have it addressed by a member of the site's executive administration.

I will admit that I carry a more serious -- for lack of a better term -- demeanour that Markos does; however, this is does not mean that I do not have as close as bond to the <I>Civilization</I> community as he does. We simply approach and address matters in a different fashion while at the same time producing equal or at least very similar results.

Now that I've got your attention... are you all caught up on your subscription payments or do I have to start handing out temporary forum account suspensions^?

^ Yes, it's a joke... I told a joke! Whether you think it was good or bad, I don't care (just be sure to call the folks at Guinness ASAP)

[Sirotnikov]

Being a joker I know how tough it is when you wait for response, so I'll respond: It's indeed a joke
