The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Gone for a few days

Hi!
I just want to let you know that I probably won't be able to log in till Sunday. I'm going to a 50th birthday celebration down to Munich. I'm going to visit the "Deutsche Museum", one of the largest and most interesting museums over here. When I return I will probably have some pictures which the airplane enthusiasts among you will like  :yes

Bye Malte! :wave Enjoy the Birthday party, and I look forward to talking to you soon.

(By the way, I found a solution to our problem, which I will send to you as soon as possible. B) )

Can't say I ever found you to be a problem Adam. Nor do I think Tim ever did ;)
I'm off now. See you :)

Naw, the problem relates to publically releasing sheet music.  I recently found a Very nice way to do this. B)

I'm afraid my possibilities to go online will be limited during the next days. Our modem broke and it will take some days to get a new one. I hope I won't miss anything important.

A provisional solution has been found, so there won't be any really serious limitation anymore, other than that I can't send or download large files for some days (working now with a 56/k modem).
