    Default What's going on with the site clock AGAIN?

    12:49 AM on July 4th Atlantic Daylight Time my time is reading 8:49 AM which means the site is now set to EEDT (Eastern European Daylight Time).

    Did Hex move from Florida to Tel Aviv and not tell us? Either that or he took up a career as a Somali pirate hijacking container ships.

    Can some one freakin' FIX THIS PLEASE?

    +1 this time thing is pretty annoying... and I've noticed that I don't get automatic emails anymore notifying me that a thread I'm subscribed to has been posted in.

    And the PMs from badwhale are getting kinda gross... is that related to the time problem?

    Buzz missed an opportunity for a triple post? And yes, it is quite discombobulating.

    We lost power due to a crazy storm today. My clocks are all screwed up.

    I sent Hex an e-mail a week or so back - he has not responded...

    ...and we're not getting any new registrations. This is not good.

    What needs to be done? Can't we assume ownership (with a fee) if the domain name goes unpaid, or does not get renewed? I'll chip in for that. Hopefully Hex will do what he's got to do, but if not we should have a backup plan.

    What do you mean by " this is not good"? Do you mean something isn't paid for and the forum will be shut down, or that it simply isn't a good sign nobody is joining?

    Anyone try contacting miguel on facebook?

    There is something wrong with the site - showing through an issue with the clock and not receiving any new registrations (I used to process 10-15 per day). We had this problem once before - and Miguel had to fix something at the server level. I've sent Miguel an e-mail to look into the issue, but he's not been reponsive at all.

    Bottom line forget about the clock - without Miguel's intervention we will have no new registrations coming through and our community will remain static. This site will eventually wither on the vine...

    Facebook is a social media site that you and I don't use, but others have had success in the past contacting Miguel.

    No, facebook is where you take a picture of something and then apply one of 8,000 filters to it to make it look pretty, and then you upload it to the cloud so other people can vote on it and if your picture wins the most votes you win a new car.

    So I'm not really sure that is going to work for contacting Miguel.

    Try pinterest maybe? That's the app where you leave a 30-second voicemail that is deleted immediately after the receiver listens to it.
