Well DURN, it is invisible except to moderators.

Shocked

I just dialed in using Oldfeller2 and it sure enough is gone.

That is certainly unexpected and it explains why everyone is getting upset.

I am sure JohnH can fix whatever setting got tripped and I will get up with him ASAP to see if he can do that.

Sorry about that guys -- I don't know what happened and certainly can't explain the whichness of the why. I can just try to get it fixed as quick as possible.

No, some members have technical issues with their browers or computers, looks like.

How many of you see the Tall Table up in the sticky section and can post to it?

How many can't see it?

How many can see it but can't post to it?

Try a cold shut down (wait a minute) and reboot of your PC if you have issues not seeing or not being able to post.

I can see it only when logged in. If you hid it, you should probably unhide it.

Having a "pasture" section where controversial threads could be sent, would solve this problem. Moving stuff to "Forum issues" would also work. Then nobody'd get their panties in a bunch for not having a "right" to broadcast their words to thousands of computer screens.

Now that's odd -- why didn't Sluggo's Table disappear too? Same steps, same things done to it.

Boule, hindsight being 20-20 I think I like Verslagen's idea that the trimmed materials from the Tall Table etc just be allowed to float down the Cafe listing to the 90 day limit and that's what I would do in the future.

I still don't understand how one thread got hidden while the other one when through the process completely unchanged.

It is a point that with bionic eyes you always see everything -- so after such changes I think I'd log in as Oldfeller2 just to make sure everything is still kosher.

Mick, it was before your time but JohnH updated the list software a while back and it required you to have your interim password sent to your email account of record.

Justin, me and several others got caught out by that as we had changed carriers so we couldn't get to our new interim passwords ..... we were forced to re-register.

You will find Justin'oGuy2 and Oldfeller2 have been list members longer than you have as we both ran them for years & years. Then JohnH fixed the passwords issue and we were able to log in on our original names and passwords and I have done so pretty much consistently since as it is auto-memorized.

Oldfeller2 has a sterling advantage to me now -- he sees with non-bionic eyes what the normal list members sees. He could see the issue about the disappearing list while Oldfeller simply saw it sitting there all along.

So get used to seeing him sometimes -- he may be trying to see the things a moderator's bionic eyes can't see.
