I’ve already decided to grace this place with the presence of my absence. I have only checked in to see if they’ve taken steps to get rid of this lousy format. I will be logging out now for good. I used to come here for guidance, but now it is difficult to read a thread, difficult to navigate, and impossible to appreciate.

Mike, What in the name of revolution is going on around here? I’ve been absent from this forum for several months and when I come back, that whole bar is unrecognizable. And what’s this stuff about all the ole guys packing it in for a few days? Hope you are well my friend, and that “change” has been smiling on you and yours. k Print this page Email this Message reply Ignore user Submitted by MikeSmith on Sat, 01/16/2010 – 19:02. kk…. the feeling is there is a basic conflict between those who own the forum …. and those who populate the forum…. it’s been a month and nit much has improved so.. consensus is to log out midnite monday… and come back a week later … not two days…. a week lot’s of the old reprobates are hanging out at Breaktime Classic and The Woodshed Tavern other than BT falling apart…. 2010 looks like it should be an improvement over 2009 best to you and yours Mike Hussein Smith Rhode Island : Design / Build / Repair / Restore Print this page Email this Message reply Ignore user Permalink Submitted by wallyo on Mon, 01/18/2010 – 14:28.

I save the “boycotts” for something important like civil rights or cuttin’ my footie-ball off of the satellite… 😉 Print this page Email this Message reply Ignore user Permalink Submitted by woodturner9 on Mon, 01/18/2010 – 16:48. consensus is to log out midnite monday It’s not really a consensus if most people don’t agree. I think most of us will just keep posting. Taunton and FHB “own” this forum. It always takes some time when there are changes to “work out the bugs”. I think if we give them a chance, they will get the kinks worked out. Trying a “boycott” is just not helpful and is likely divisive, in my humble opinion.

It will give the forum bosses time to finally answer some of the simple questions that have been put forth. I’ve been waiting over a week for one answer or at least an acknowledgement. All I see is that what many of us have reported as not working is “working perfectly well for them”. Devisive is ignoring members. Several of the above folks have been here since this forum started-that’s over 10 yrs. You think they want to break up a community? No way. Many of us have put in a whole lot of time in building this forum into what it was. With the changeover and resultant poor usability a whole bunch of these veterans have left. Not for lack of effort in trying to make this work. If you don’t want to take part in this-best of luck in your endeavor. A Great Place for Information, Comraderie, and a Sucker Punch.
