Thanks to the webmaster for the work being done. I know it is often far from stress free. :D
This was one of the best features of the forum. Is it gone or just being worked on?

Please be patient, the web master is very busy with the updates. Give him a little bit more time.
If we didn't update, the forum would be flooded with spam from porn sites and freelance pharmacists.

Jacque, you and the Web Master have done an outstanding job with the conversion. Give him a pat on the back. To do the upgrade in such a short time and have it back up and running with the hundred of thousands of posts in the different forums and then the security software integrated and integrate it to the other Bateau links. Just well done! :!:

Hmmm... the USA has a federal do not call list. Do you think there will ever be a do not email or a do not post or spam list for addresses and sites listed as registered or private? With hefty fines for violation? I'm not big on regulation, but it has its place, like at my door and windows, especially when I'm not at home to mind the strangers, and some of them out on the internet give new meaning to *strange*.

Great work on the update. It's coming more to life each day. :D

Looks like F10 and Apache are back on the gallery page, but no gallery yet. I'm sure you're busily working on it. :)

Is there any possibility of an estimated time when it might be up and running again. Thanks again for all your work keep it all going. :D

Actually this feature is sort of still there but in a different place. Click on new posts in the forum list and you get effectively the same thing.

Thanks DS. :) I get that option after making sure I'm logged in. You may not see it if you are not logged in.
