Post by: birty on February 24, 2013, 08:21:25 PM
ok I have 2 options, I close the forum for 2 day and finish the new install or I get the core update done so the forum is usable and do the custom work with the forum live.

I assumed you grumpy whinging fucks would like to at least use the forum but if I was wrong just say and I'll shut it again till its finished

 ffs within 2 mins of going live and before I can post an explanation someone fuckin moans like its the end of the world.

for your information, this is a stock theme as the custom one I wrote for the old system is not compatable and needs re writing which will take a day or two if thats ok with you lot

Good work guys, lots goes on in the back ground we take for granted.

I guess that's why General is missing.

Do what you got to do.

No sign of the general section, perhaps you can see it as a moderator.

I appreciate why the changes are needed, but it would've been good to have some advance warning.  I know as a UK based and managed forum, out of hours upgrades are not possible, especially since it is run by volunteers who also have to earn a living and need their beauty sleep as well  :098:

Good luck with the rest of the modifications.

Is it out of action whilst the updates are happening?

As tempting as it maybe, especially with the General section currently out of commission, can we keep posts in here to stuff directly related to issues with the forum.

Thanks.

call it what you want dood the ownership stratagy direction has been in the same hands from day one and will not change untill the club/forum gets turned off for good it has stood the club well for almost ten years if its a dictatorship its a benign nurturing one that has always given  freedoms with plenty of rope if you choose to hang yourself that is up to you

it also unlike most dictatorships has an open door policy it is not a prison camp you are free to leave at any time you wish

a lot of effort goes into this thing called birtys from all involved  at the heart of things

FYI you are an Event Organiser due to your past contributions, a pre-requisite to being an Event Organiser is you are first a Club Member, in due course things will come clear so please be patient

The issues between Stew and the Club/Forum owners is something completely out of any moderators hands. As said I'm sure a Greggmo will make everything clear.

Sorry Willo but Birty did say a clear "No" to reinstating Stew as a Forum or a club member. If you disagree with that ruling then take it up with Greggmo or another senior member of a Birtys. A moderator will not have that ability. Can we please put this issue to bed?
