I been out sick for some time now. I come back and all things have changed here. I never said I am the brightess person in the world but I can't get no where with the forms. Can't log in, I been trying for days now, and I don't get no responce from the admins. Is this site going down hill or what? Do we need to find another home? Anyway I know it's late but Happy New Year, Safe One, and Healthy One for all and your familys. [p]Pork Butt Mike

    Pork Butt Mike,[p]Growing pains. That is what has been going on around here. We were attacked by trolls and had to make the switch to the New Forum. As with anything growing pains are to be expected. I can barely remember my first meal on the egg. It wasn't great but is was better than the last meal from the kettle. Took me a little while to figure out what this big green hunk-O-ceramic was all about. [p]As with all things low and slow. It will get better with time. I think we are in the plateau right now, and the goodness is right around the corner.[p]Just my $.02

    Mike in Abita,[p]Right now I'm looking at the "old" forum and it looks fine. Is there any problem just sticking with it until the issues of the new forum are worked out a tad more?? Trolls are on every board. Ignore them and they go away. I'm at a loss as to what this fuss is all about.[p]mShark

    mollyshark,[p]I think the only issue is you're missing many (most?) of the new posts if you only read the greeneggers.COM site right now (as opposed to greeneggers.NET).[p]At a glance, it appears there is far more traffic originating from the new (.net) forum the last several days.[p]

    Pork Butt Mike,[p]We are still working things out. The email should be working better for some now, but as I have early meetings this week, I've been unable to follow things as closely as over the holidays.[p]Everything will be worked out soon. Thank everyone again for their patience during this transition period -- it really helps us quite a bit for everyone to use the new forum so these issues can be identified and addressed.[p]Off to more meetings now....

    Pork Butt Mike,[p]Yep...I have given up for the most part. I have "pinged" WMK..sent emails directly to the admin....posted my problem (which I think others have as well) and have not even been acknowledged. Mollyshark has a good suggestion...stay with the old until the new is ready for release.[p]Just my opinion...[p]RajunCajun[p]How bout dem Tigers??
    The problem with a problem is that you don't know it's a problem until it's a problem, and that is a big problem.

    RajunCajun,[p]Even if you can't login to the new forum, can't you still see the posts, and create them over there? Trouble with staying here is that what is posted over at the new forum can't be seen here. Not much activity in the old forum. [p]Just a question.

    If and when its worked out I guess everything will be ok. The frustrating part to me is making a post, then go back to see some responses, and in the mean time 20-30 other post have been made, and I have to wade through 4 or 5 pages trying to find it. I have made the changes like WMK said, and still the latest response will not bring a post back to the top or near the top.......I'm not complaining, just waiting, and using the old forum until things are worked out. I know it's a job.
