I learned the hard way too - always do a backup before you upgrade anything that has anything to do with a Microsoft product.
Agree that it shouldn't be so hard to do.
Interesting thing happened when I clicked on the thread header. It took me to a place to enter my email address where it stated that by entering my email, I would be receiving email from you.
What's that all about?
Any new turtles?
Should one assume that this is a backup thread in case SI self destructs?
Silly?!? Indeed!!! Seems like a pretty simple request.
I've noticed that there's been a lot of accusations leveled at you that pretty much sully your name and reputation. There are some pretty serious charges. Why wouldn't you want to clear the air? Do you really want everyone to think you're a jerk? Or do you enjoy all the attention it's bringing you? Pretty childish for a grown man. You should be ashamed of yourself.
But you're probably adhering to that old adage: You can let people *think* you're a jerk - or you can speak and erase all doubt.
:( - so long Poet. You and JXM were the only bright spots on this otherwise dismal site. I'll be seeing you over on SI.
Someone turn out the lights.
IHUB is dead!! I had high hopes for this place. Too bad.
Bob is a very good, very decent person and it's a shame that he was attacked in the manner that he was and his reputation sullied by a bunch of jerks.
Their attempt to give this place credibility by using Bob failed. I am joining the exodus outta here. Let the rioting commence.
Eagerly looking forward to all the updates - in particular the spell checker - I, for one, could use it.
From the header: This board was created because admin Bob has created his own little world
From your last message: to discuss and track the growth of IHUB under Bob. Open discussion. I do not like having any thread dedicated to bashing or character assassinating.
Then you should change the header.
I'm not so sure that many people agree with the first statement.
There's already the BADBOB thread. Why is another necessary? Hasn't this subject been beaten to a faretheewell?
Again, even though you said you're in a quandry about it, you didn't answer the question of - If you allow a thread that bashes/criticizes you, will you allow threads that are critical of other people - or for that matter, enterprises?
Certainly agree with you that a thread like this will do more good for you rep, afterall, most of us can read and separate the chaff, as it were.
(for those who need a definition: chaff: trivial or worthless matter)
This thread makes no bones about it. Only people who dislike me are welcome. Only negative commentary will be allowed. Only "real" iHub members welcome (whatever the heck that means).
Well I'm curious. You've stated before that you try to be as fair as possible and apply the rules equally to everyone.
If you're going to allow a board that is specifically aimed at bashing/critizing you, are you going to allow other boards that bash/criticize other people on IHUB?
Are there any plans to incorporate a spell checker? Is there a list of planned improvements?
I have had the same exact thing happen. I made Bob aware of it and he said he would let Matt know about it. That was earlier this week.
You have to reboot to get rid of the frozen windows.
IHUB opens up another window when you click on a link - if you have more than 2 windows open, it'll freeze.
He's spammed a lot of the threads
I just lump you in with those people after reading a lot of your posts.
You're lumped in a crowd all by yourself - after reading your posts it's clear that you sling unfair accusations at people and when called on it, you run like a coward and hide behind nonsense rather then coming forward like a man, admiting you were wrong and apologizing.
Poet - my favorite that you came up with was Spamela Anderspam

Didn't see that
Couldn't find my PM to you. It'll take awhile to reconstruct it.
wow - that was interesting. One second it said d****** s*** and the next second it said *expletives deleted*
My favorite line of all time....especially the way Kilmer delivered it.
if there's nothing there about someone you target, you and your crowd fabricate things by asking questions that are really accusations but you put a question mark at the end of the sentence instead of a period. if that fails, you and the vigilantes make vague references to imaginery misdeeds, that only exist in your own minds
Is this an example of what the enquiring mind of Marty was referring to?
Why won't he answer your questions?
Why does he ask a lot of questions, ignore the responses and refuse to answer legitimate questions posed to him?
Don't know why I'm asking you.......?
How big a problem are spammers at this point?
If there are so many of them that they are disrupting a lot of the boards that could be a reason to enable the spam button.
What about posters that are only there to disrupt, harass, complain, annoy and repeat the same thing using different words? They create a lot of *noise* that make it difficult to scan through the boards - especially since you can only view one post at a time.
What about people with legitimate questions that get deleted because they are viewed as being negative or disruptive to the purpose of the board.
Censorship is a delicate issue. Once you start the rules, you'll be constantly changing or expanding them to fit every situation.
Just as you are the victim of posters who want to challenge your authority and ability to *roast* them, you will be putting the CoBs and directors in that same position.
you and your crowd fabricate things by asking questions that are really accusations but you put a question mark at the end of the sentence instead of a period.
Could you give an example of this, please?

Could you give an example of this please?
he is allowing you and your friends to continue this behavior here.
Could you give an example of this please?
I think an exception should be made for Spamming Donkeys
One only needs to read all the drivel coming from you to make the call on whether or not your smart. It's really not much of a stretch.
I nominate The Real Poet - fair, honest and really smart
Does you mommy know what you're using the computer for?
If threads are designed to allow only what longs want to hear -(or shorts for that matter) let 'em have it that way. Wait long enough while they pump each other up and watch 'em suffer the consequences. (Cisco threads a year ago come to mind)
If you place all your decision making on what you find on any thread on any web site, then you deserve what you get. Who has the time to visit all these P&D threads - and anyone who frequents these various sites knows who and where they are. There's much better information all over the web.
The only value a website like this will have in the future is IF it can present a balanced picture for those seeking information. If someone seeking that information only finds one side - it's simple - they will go somewhere else. If they only find *noise*, they will look elsewhere.
Immature posters who have nothing better to do than cart over old fights from other sites, paranoids who feel *wronged* in other venues and continue harping with vague accusations, touters of (take your pick) stocks, websites, BBs, Pinks, OTC, penny stocks, chocolate, grubs, farm machinery, pretty sunsets, weather patterns, beer, and babies will probably find someone to *listen* to them - but not for long, unless they are truly into stuff like that.

>>You are sooo silly.<<
Is that really the best response you can come up with to a serious post?
BWAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA - ROTFLMAO - Stop it! You're killing me by making me laugh so hard. If you don't stop using all this logic to make sense, you're gonna ruin it for the idiots who don't get it.
If there are 73 new messages listed on one of your *favorites* thread and you want to access the last one you read, do you have to count back 73 messages or is there another way to do it? On SI, all you had to do was click on the number. Also, how to you refresh or clear all new messages?
Agree with OMD - I would also like to see 10 posts at a time become a feature.
Glad to see you posting again. You're the best!
