It went down with a server error by the look of it. Never realised how addicted I was until I couldn't have it. But we're back now; hhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.................
I think there was a problem on the net generally last night. Everything was very slow.
I was ordering a book and it took three attempts to get it to go through, then when I got the confirmation my second abandoned attempt had gone through as well even though it hadn't appeared to complete. So I had two copies ordered and the 10% discount hadn't gone through.
Fortunately I was able to query it and they contacted me this morning and it is now all sorted.
One of my boys was having problems a short while ago and lost his connection.
The computer is working okay, so I suspect it is a server issue.
1. Could we please have our little 'award' icons back?
2. Apparently the option to change our Usernames has disappeared.
3. Is it possible to have ALL threads made anonymous from Google?
Thanks darling Jon/Webbo. We do appreciate you are busy but are you on holidays or something? You haven't abandoned us, have you? Hello? Is anybody even out theeeeerrrrrreeeeeee...hel-l-o-ooooo.....?

I also sent you a whispered message about item 3 above. Is anyone checking this board?
A reply would be nice - pretty please.
I'm still having probs with bookmarks not working and I've been complainign about that all year. I don't think this threaad gets checked any more. MAy have to start emailing our concerns, folks!
Does anyone know what the correct e-mail address is these days?
Jay??
(My last e-mail was either ignored or possibly the address I've got needs updating.)
I've just tried one Stirling has posted to an old TB thread and it worked okay.
Though there do seem to be times when they won't- but it is okay at the moment Jay.
Sorry I've been away for a while, I've been busy on some other projects.
I have looked at the Username change and have reinstated this.
I have also moved the copyright thread.
I will also given back the awards to dorothyd and Jay, If you also had an award then please let me know.
I will also look into making the discussions hidden from Google.
If you have a problem and wish to let me know as soon as possible you can either email me direct (email address is on my account page) or you can make your post and then click the 'Report Post' button. This will then email me details of the thread straight away.
Hi Jon. I am still ahving trouble wiht soem of my bookmarks. They all used to work and take me straight to the page of whichever one I clicked on, from whichevr page. Now, howewver, some will work from any page, some will work from some pages and some just take me to to bottom of whichever page I am on. The only pages they ALL work from are teh index pages of all discussions. It's frustrating having to go abck to there everytime. Any chance of sorting it out for me, please?

On my main page, with all discussions on, the numbers of pages are at the top but no longer at the bottom, it just says, top of the page... so if I want to go to page number 2 I have to scroll back up to get there... is there a reason for this, and is it just me?
But has anyone else found that Talkback doesn't take you quite as far as the posts you haven't yet read - so you have to move down the screen manually?

I've been shut out since around 6.45pm and I know two others have as well.
I'm just happy it's back.

we've noticed that the option to change our usernames has been taken off... why?
is there any way we can change usernames?
:(
Could you please remove the sticky for "please post here"
And please place a sticky on "Work being published on..." instead, if that's okay?
thank you.

Are links to other threads within Talkback working? They never seem to be when I try to use them.
Though there do seem to be times when they won't- but it is okay at the moment Jay.
