I think we've all pretty much noticed that the board's been a little dead over the past month. It's not that folks haven't been checking in, but no one's posting much. I partially blame myself, having been offline for an extended period of time, and then not having the time to post too many substantial things.

But that's all behind us. I've started a few fresh topics, we have so many great old ones that no one's touched, and a lot of members checking in from time to time posting one or two things.

I'd really like to get things "busy" around here again, but I need everyone's help. If you care about this board; if you want it to continue, we need your input. PLEASE contribute to topics, even if you don't feel that your opinion is informed or valid (every opinion is worth hearing). If you have suggestions, let me hear them. And please don't hesitate to spread the word about this place. So many of you have told me that you really like this site. If that's still true, help me make it grow.

I'm doing a lot of promotional work for the site (as I always have), and will continue to. But there's nothing to promote when no one's posting, so do your part too. Get passionate, folks!

Fond regards!

Jeff

Hi Jeff! I'm back and posting. But I wanted to ask you a question.

I normally use Netscape, not IE, but I find that I can't read or post to Boar's Head Tavern on my Netscape. I figure it's probably because I have an older version and haven't had the time to update. I've been looking in occasionally on IE, but since it's not my usual server I'm not there as often as I would be if I could get it on Netscape. Is it just a question of updating, or is there something I could do to make it work on the version of Netscape I have now. Most everything else works on it, but this and a very few other sites seem to need something it hasn't got.

In the meantime, I'll try to check in more often on IE. Glad to be back...

Hi MSDirector! It's great to see you back.

Two other users have expressed the same problem with the board. I brought it up with Proboards, the company that provides this site and does much of the programming. You may find that the info contained in the following link will help you: boarshead.proboards9.com/index.cgi?board=announcements&action=display&n=1&thread=212

I've contacted proboards about this, just in case that doesn't do the trick. We'll see what they say.
