    trouble loading the chat room
    I've been experiencing difficulties loading the chat room on my windows 7 laptop the past few days. Is anyone else experiencing similar issues?

    Best tech glitch ever!
    I'm glad it's all still there, some damn fine music! But sometimes a glitch is a good thing. In the beginning of October something strange like that happened and a post from the Vineyard showed up under the comments in the Taper's Section where I spotted it. I've been happily trading the most amazing music ever since, so I'm thankful for life's little glitches. I'm now single-handedly keeping my local post office in business! Thanks to all the tapers, seeders and people with the kindness to pass along the beautiful music. Be well

    RE: MIA Taper's Section posts (the search tool works)
    To find old Taper's Section posts, the search tool works! For example, to find the missing ones from 2008 search 'Taper's Section 2008'. You'll have to wade through 8 pages of results but persistence eventually pays off. You'll wade through more results for 2009 if you enter 'Taper's Section 2009' but it seems they're all there! Maybe no one cares except me as evidenced by the dead silence that greeted my previous post on Dec. 21. Anyway, I'm glad they're there. Peace.

    some missing TS posts are in the Forums, Vineyard, etc.
    I was perusing the vineyard and the Forums and I stumbled upon some of the missing Old Taper's Section posts! Maybe some of you knew about this phenomenon. October 15-21 can be found under 'Technical Problems' under Home > Forums > Administration. Another one I've found is located in the vineyard under the heading '3 from '89 DVD Vine' on page 7, June 1-June 2009. July 26-August 2 2010 is just a few posts later under it's regular heading. It's good to know the old posts are not zapped entirely, but maybe it would help folks to get them in the correct place.

    Chat and Downloading the 30 Days of Dead..
    I have tried several times to log into chat, but it keeps telling me I have an incorrect username or password, but I obviously am using the right one if I am able to log in here and post this, so what gives? Also, I tried to download the zip file for the complete 30 Days of Dead (here: http://174.129.28.194/30days2011.zip ) file today, and it keeps coming up that I am unable to connect. Acts like the webpage does not exist, no matter how many times I've tried. BTW, I am using Win7 and Firefox. Please help, i really would love to have the download and use the chat..

I get a dead link when I follow the full show downloads link for the 11/79 Spectrum shows - are these still available? The page I'm accessing is via Features -> New Full Show Downloads (near bottom of page) -> MORE DOWNLOAD INFO (right sidebar). I really hope these haven't gone the way of the rest of the download series (which I'm still trying to find a way to purchase in FLAC or ALAC format. Thanks, D

i have gotten about 20 messages in the last two days about a request to reset my password. Someone is obviously trying to steal my user name by getting the password reset. How can i make sure it doesn't get changed? I set up this ID early on day one of the new website launch as you can imagine my User name is a desirable one.

Jack Straw that is clearly someone trying to change it...be careful man, and make sure your password is both capitals, lower case, and a few numbers and has nothing to do with your home/house birthday etc. That sucks man...hopefull the techies can ping back the responses and get the IP addy the guy is using. Also, the chatroom is definately down...I think it's a problem with gagalive. Is everyone having this issue? Love you guys. ♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥ Twirly Banner

Hey ripple! To start a new thread, you send a private message to marye (admin) with the topic you wish to start. She is most helpful and obliging about setting them up for us, and only she can start new threads.********************************** By trying we can easily learn to endure adversity -- another man's I mean.

yes, it does seem to be dysfunctional. I'll report it. However, from what I can tell, the problem is not on our site but the chat hosting site, and seeing as it's Labor Day Weekend things might stay this way till folks get back to work on Tuesday. Thanks.

The chatroom was running on gagalive.com and their site has been down the whole time the chat has been inaccessible. This has been quite a long time for any site to be down. Is there any word on it?

We're now at day 5 since a new Jam Of The Week ought to have been posted. Still rocking the 2-4-2/10 Jam, now on 2/15. While I'm at it, the on Features page the main link, top and center of the page, points to a stale Taper's Section? It's pointing to 2/7-2/13, last week's selections. The new one has now been available for two days. Is anyone actually devoted to maintaining this site, as their primary responsibility? Or does someone just patch things up when marye brings them to their attention? I mean seriously. We have to *tell* you that your site is stale? We have to *tell* you that you haven't got Jam Of The Week up? Does nobody there actually browse the site??? Sorry to be so harsh, but I am actually curious what resources are devoted to site maintenance here. There's definitely an issue with staff levels or competencies. And whoever's in charge ought to have been shown the door ages ago. [mandatory_pander] But, of course, all the gracious goodies are appreciated, yadda, yadda... [/mandatory_pander]
