New Message board going strong.

[John Rutherford]

Thanks to all of you who are starting to use the new Message board. I see some of you are already posting lots of pictures. A quick note and this is completely optional. You may want to consider registering on the board. This gives you additional options that help make the experience even better. You may even get a chance to be a topic moderator. When you register you get the ability to edit or delete your posts after they are submitted, spell checking, stored profile, user ranking, cookie remembers all your info so you dont need to refill each time. Just like in old board. And some other nice features. If you do register and you are not an HCOA member there is no need to select the members forum option. You will get rejected for that group. Thanks again for all your cooperation. webmaster@hanchristian.org

But I have not been able to find out how to select any group at all. And when I try to "continue to register" the complaint that I haven't selected a group prevents me from continuing...

Sorry I mucked it up John, not only a dup message (this makes 3), but an unwanted photo too...

I get unexpected errors posting to the old message board, though the messages get posted...

Hmmmm, Not sure what that is all about. Does it happen often for you. Has anyone else experienced this problem? the registration should be fixed since you first tried. I had to tell it which groups to show so people can select it. Try it agian and let me know. I did do a test and it did work for me. But computers are cantacerous at best. webmaster@hanchristian.org

Stephen, If you're going to post pictures of your ship, the least you could do is polish up the brass a little first, don't you think?? seth@speech.mit.edu

[Stephen Carstensen]

Oh jeezzz, Maybe the New Message Board will not have the "sticky photo option", I keep forgetting from one post to the next to delete the photo URL... Actually we just finished the galley fixture installation (another post) and Barbie said I better polish the brass if I'm going to post a photo of her yacht (grin)... Best, Steve warmrain@rockisland.com

[John Rutherford]

I promise you will not have that problem ever again. webmaster@hanchristian.org

I'll chalk it up to a transient event... It happened multiple times. In fact every message posted in the thread resulted in as error message. I've rebooted and I doubt this one will. But I'll let you know if it does. Otherwise it's just that old black magic... - Steve warmrain@rockisland.com

[Stephen Carstensen]

Got the error on the last post. Will get it now too. Even though the messages does get posted.

Rob, I just made a large new post and answered in detail your question there. Look for "Painless galley fixture replacement in HC33T". - Steve warmrain@rockisland.com

John, Will posting NEW messages to the old board eventually be disabled? - Steve warmrain@rockisland.com
