I have.

Let's all do some.

Fewer participants just not as fun.

My personal thanks to Moi for telling me how to get here. But now I am here it does look different. Guess we've all got to get used to it.

Hello EA friends,

I loves you guys and gals and its, and support you all athletically and in all ways.

PS: I may have already said this somewhere else because I am a bad navigator. I was going to ask what happened but I can tell those working hard to fix everything and everyone need not to be distracted by questions right now, so I will do something strange and shut up. Regards and good luck to all.

Hey boys, girls, eunuchs and others; I feel like one lucky butt-plug to see this site back.

Seriously: I should kiss the butts of Talula, Kristoff and Paolo for getting the EA back on the web in record time. I tried the 184.80.34.18 address sent by Kristoff and couldn't get it to work for me. Eunuchworld.org connects just fine as of last night.

My car is in the shop for repairs. If I have anything left when I get it back I will send whatever I can.

Thank you so much to all of you who make this work. I am in awe of your dedication and expertise.

After that, we may be able to do something with the archive of stories, but that will be down the road a ways. more as I find it. pay attention to eunuch.org and eunuchworld.com. that is where stuff will end up, if possible.

Kristoff, would you mind elaborating on what exactly is the source of the problem?

I for one have been a fan of the fiction archive. I've read through the forums, and sometimes they interest me, but often they do not..

I don't know what Kristoff will do.

However, if you bring this discussion here to this thread while we all run to to get technical help from this thread at a time where the EA moved to a new server (never mind the reason, EA MOVED and that is that.) then you are inviting a ton of words and more posts than you imagine arguing over non-technical and non-move related issues.

Can I appeal to keep this thread clear of anything but technical issues related to the move?

The content of the Fiction Archive is not technical.

There are so many new things on this version of VB, i would suggest that you take the discussion of the Fiction Archive to a new thread.

See my post here.

In the before time there was a bar at the top of the page that warned me when I had better clean out my e-mail box and the box was of limited space.

I do not see the bar there anymore or any indication of how much e-mail storage I have left.

Am I missing something or is the bar like the sunbursts and pips and not upgradable?

Don't ya just luv upgrades that don't let in old favorite programs? That's an upgrade

My first experience was with an old version of Microsoft Viewer that could no longer function on upgraded Windows. Easy image controls.

When I go to personal messages, they have the number if messages received and sent but no mention of a limit. Perhaps there is none?

You are both Archive Regular Members so you both can store 150 pm's.

First: My check is in the mail.

Second: I hope it will all work out for the better once th EA is completely seperate and independant from BMEZINE.com.

I don't think a members only/password protected site is a good idea. People will be hesitant to sign up for an unkown site. I belive part of the EA's vital mission is to raise awareness and increase acceptance for eunuchs. This goal is best served by open access. Maybe it could be setup as view for free, pay for posting priveleges.

Perhaps you could post a permanent link on the main page for donations. I may also suggest an annual fund raising drive to remind members that we need to show more than just moral ( or immoral) support for the world's greatest website.

P.S.

I just became a "Senior Member"!

grats, Senior Member. WOOT WOOT.

You have always been able to come in and read vBulletin, you need to register and use a password to post. As for the story board there have been many ideas brought out in all of this, and it will be talked about at the MOM event, its not a nice cookie cutter solution but one that is going to take a lot of work to hammer out.

If you have ideas on how to handle the return of Fiction Archive, would you please post it here;

I'm trying to get a dialog on how the members think it should be handled away from the technical issues part of the forum.

As of now the return, or not of the Fiction Archive is a moral issue, not a technical one.

I'd appreciate your comments.

Congrats on the Senior Member status.

As I was cleaning out my EA box I noticed my sent folder had the bar graph on top demonstrating % of fullness.

But, it is still no where to be seen on the Inbox page.

WE can hope.

The opinions on some sort of graphic simile to Sunbursts and Pips is polarized.



How about a voluntary participation so those who don't like it can opt out without denying me this graphic expression of my authoriton*.

Ok, this is likely the best thread at present for telling everyone about this new feature, and forgive me if I've overlooked someone else already mentioning it. However, it's proven valuable several times so far, and so is worth another mention.

As you're typing away your responses to threads, you'll notice that occasionally a little yellow blurb will pop up saying 'auto-saved'. This means exactly what it says, namely everything you've written so far has been somehow automatically saved, just in case something happens. Even if (and this has happened to me twice so far), your system completely locks up in the middle of a post and you have to reboot, when you come back to that thread and hit the reply button again, you're presented with an option to restore your response from damn near exactly where you left off before your computer crashed. Yes, you can actually reboot while half-way through a reply on the new message boards, and what you've already typed will still be there when you come back. Talk about a huge upgrade.

Is it personal?
