No PM box at all, just "welcome, "T-Bag" and when I last visited.

I fear this problem may be more than just an admin error requiring a tweak.

The forums briefly went very strange earlier this evening and although I have no idea whether there is a connection it's seems a bit strange that immediately afterwards you all get a problem.

I'm still checking but getting a bit chin scratchy now :g:

Whatever's gone wrong it's not my fault.

Maybe there\'s something to be said for being different. We are who we are. What more could we ask for?

Due to microscopic particles of volcanic ash getting into the flux capacitors the forum went a bit wobbly. Due to my gigantic brain and vast skill I have managed to fix everything..... more or less.... and normal service should now be restored. Or I stupidly miss clicked on a radio button and turned of all your permissions off. You decide.

In the unlikely event that it was utterly and totally my fault, I would like to point out that there are thirty three user-groups on this forum each with their own unique set of permissions. Each user-group has one hundred and seventy six different options that can be set. So in total I had potentially five thousand seven hundred and nine individual settings to check. It's a radio button hell I tell you :ranting2: So I offer this as my feeble excuse as to what happened. :sad:

I feel so worthless :crying:

:wink:

Haha nice excuse smilo, I think I go with the volcanic ash this time however, and I'm just suprised it havn't knocked out other public transports (bus/trains etc)

Or you could offer to buy all those who reported the "quirk" a beer at the lan :narnar:

Thanks for sorting it out though :)

I write down everything I want to remember. That way, instead of spending a lot of time trying to remember what it is I wrote down, I spend the time looking for the paper I wrote it down on.

Good work Smilo, seems to be working just fine now :thumbsup:
