OH BOY!!!!!!! I was panicked this morning when I could not find you guys!!! I am a technical recruiter, so my days are spent on the phone, with one peeled on TB2000. My name is Richard. I am a TB2000 dependent retch!!! I need help.

-- Richard,USMC (rkb65@hotmail.com), December 29, 1999.

Was out of town yesterday and when I returned home and tried to login to TB2000 had quite a fright. Been mainly a lurker for 18 months now and have come to depend on this community for info, news, humor and sense of connectiveness in a no-so-connected world.

BTW, tried to register to the ONElist but so far no "acceptance" as yet.

You can set up a ONEList subscription from both addresses. As to approval, it should happen pretty quickly after you confirm. I removed the flag that requires me to manually approve each user. If any of the troublemakers subscribe, I can ban them, and if they go hog wild, I can always turn the approval flag back on.

Problem is, I don't know where I SHOULD be!

I'd bet it would be enormously helpful if Ed would revise the link on his forum and redirect it to one of these forums and only one of them.

Then, we'd all know where to go. (Then again, I think some can say they were told where they could go some time ago, but that's another story!)

Present! Now that was one hell of a ride! I kept watching for the skull and crossbones image and the attacking hackers mysterious message! Signed up at Onelist under the same name.

On another note, our developers are preparing the forum's backup to the backup to the backup site.

Talk about being totally Y2K prepped. If it is one thing that I have learned thru all of this...you can't have too many BACKUP PLANS!

Will only post URL if it is needed so as to eliminate confusion. Just be assured that there is another fallback location ready and waiting!

Is it safe to come out? Man! When TB 2000 went out, I just knew it was time to start bolting the doors (seriously though) That was indeed a little shaking, this close to the roll over. I, of course, agree that there should be at least three alternate forum sites so that this can't happen again...We are too close to "bingo time".
