What? Oh! no way dear Doreen, it's a pleasure just that you allow me to hang out here in the first place. I love being at your tea party, that's the payment such an atmosphere. Do you know? It's joy.

Awww... you're a dear! "I'll pay you what I get paid" was just a joke 'cause I don't get paid anything. LOL :mrgreen:

All of you being here and enjoying the site is my payment..... and I'm so glad! :)

Thx again for your help!

Yeah, I just spoke with the host. I saw that, too, Jack. They are in process of moving the site to another server. I sure hope this helps because changing hosts is not a process my son has time to help me with right now and I'd rather not change if we don't have to.

Thanks very much, Jack! Please continue to report the messages if/when you get any more! i appreciate it very much! :)

I saw them both and was pretty sure they were bots because of their signature links. But before deleting them, I tried the new feature to remove their signatures! Hah! It worked!

And now, judih, you've tried the new feature to give them bot status. Thank you! :) I think that's a read-only can't post status.

I'm a little baffled about how the bot status works other than making it so they can't post. The admin panel is much more complicated than it used to be. So many more functions and settings. When I first made the jam thread, people couldn't even see it 'cause I didn't set the permission settings right.... duh! We never had that before.. permissions for each forum. Learning as we go.

........

Jack, thanks for the report about not being able to connect yesterday. :)

(i meant i judged them as bots, not that i'd played with their status)

w/o signature, they're harmless - a little translation cuckoo but that's all

Ohhh... I see. Well, there are about 7 categories of permissions for users in the Admin panel. It's really strange. I have no idea what they all do. I've only used the registered user and admin designations. But there's a bot design, and a global moderator designation, and couple of others. Totally baffling to me at this point. We'll probably never need to know. :)

I probably should ask eyelidless to add back the math problem he had on there before we upgraded to keep the bots out. That used to work real well. (Then again, it might have kept some people out, too!.. people who didn't want to answer a math problem just to join a website :? )

ok - thnx for the tip about where to find that status permission.
as for the math problem - some bots slid in just the same

back to news - i love the banner fast rotation - it's like a game, colourful, surprising and fun.

If you have time I could use some help with this Doreen
You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.
I can't remember which file I attached :?

I was wondering if I could find our or remember what it was I could try and get permission

this is the post I am talking about.

I just went back to get the url to the post I got the permission required warning and now the image file Iphigenie1-Feuerbach_.jpg

is not being blocked

oh well
never-mind

Sorry that happened, Jack. Frankly, I think the developers were overly ambitious with the permissions system. Permissions for forums and groups keep changing on me, reverting to something I didn't set. It's bizarre.

I know you don't work with this software but still posting this reply here anyway.

That's my only answer.... that I don't have an answer. Why could that have happened? I don't know. But thanks for reporting it!

I appreciate all your reports about the software. :)

like a fifth wheel I have heard
but to a truckers mind it means something essential
like a period in the middle of a user name
I been thinking about adding another period to my user name.

Sorry about the headache. I usually stand on my head. Sometimes it helps

What interests me on the user panel is the friend or foe option. I have not figured that one out. Everytime I notice it I think about Ishmael.

Sorry I lied I can't hardly stand on my feet let alone on my head. That is something I read that Jack Kerouac did.

Sorry about the chit chat, I am in the middle of a move and this is my stress relever

Aspirin is a wonder drug for me
I get headaches about three days a week, sometimes eye strain, some times allergy, sometimes blood pounding ice pick migraines, but rarely.

I hope you feel better soon. Studio eight pretty much the only game in town or on the internet for me. I usually stick with one site till I am banned for life. For a while I was deeply depressed about life after litkicks, now I have a hard time trying think about life after studio eight. I am happy doreen invited you over here


Thanks for all you do doreen

I think I am getting off topic again
sorry
