TOB is up and working againg

Back up for now but the posts from the last time it was working have disappeared??? Thanks CBob for a working board.

Maybe Magma Cum loudly has been silenced for another day. Or am I thinking of Mr. Cheap? It is hard to differentiate.

Disparaging remarks are not constructive... Both boards are affected by this malady...

Back down.

Don’t participate in a malady infected web board. Find one that forbids disparaging remarks and enforces the rule. Or just ignore the posts that offend you and block chronic offenders.

It is down again, new software and all.

Darn.
Well thanks for checking and letting us know!

I haven't had to warn or boot anyone off since the Nedro and Jim W days.........that was over two years ago.

In 4 days we will be celebrating our 8th year.

Where it says Moderator, you should put 'Moderated by peer pressure.'

In comparison it is amazing how well this Board works.

Aint that the truth, cypress. And how time flies; 8 years.

I don't deny the right of someone to be critical of the critics of TOB, any more than the rights of the critics of TOB.
See how long you could do either on TOB before getting a "warning".....that is mostly, a "power" tempest in a teapot.
Too many people in powerful positions these days feel the same way......that criticism has no place and is disparaging or even worse...."fake".

What a foolish topic. Who cares about the other board? It appears that all of you negative posters are revisiting your adolescent years. Just like FB. You have a place to express your opinions- right here. Forget TOB and what happens there. All of this in-fighting is unnecessary and exhausting. And, say what you will. I just do not care.

Speaking of unnecessary snarkiness................

What infighting?

I like both boards. At least we can say what we want about The "Donald" here.

Infighting? Negative? Exhausting? Are we reading the same thread? This is just idle chitchat while we stay out of the hot sun on a spring day. Unclutch your pearls and pull up a chair.

well...it's off line again! (as of 4:23PM April 8)

It is only 3:25 and it was up 5 minutes ago. Was that a prophecy?

It has been up and running for quite a while. To get back on line on TOB or anywhere, once you have been told it is not working, you must disconnect from the message saying it is not working and try to reconnect again.

It's a pain to have to do that. but that is what I had to do.

At least I got the answer to my Austin bypass question while they were on an up Yo.
