Thanks for the warning. I will need to prepare to be able to survive that day. :-)

Oh no..everything stops at the year 2000, and now this. I better shore up on oatmeal, candles and matches, flashlight batteries, and beer.

I believe a support group is being formed.....

and no doubt the bulletin board software has already crashed...

Why is beer 5th on the list when it should be 1st?

 

[DDoug]

I'll be studying.....

You mean PM is embracing better than 1997 technology now?

This has been the clunkiest, least functioning forum I've used forever. Why change it now?

 

[Philabuster]

While you are at it, please create a new subforum for Fadal CNC Machines.

 

[Garwood]

Just add Fadal and Grizzly to the Haas forum.

 

[Scruffy887]

I'll be expecting my dues to be pro rated.............

Hell if you have enough beer, what is the other stuff for?

It's virtually problem free for me. The only issue I have is that it's a p.i.t.a. to attach photos or files.

I just hope it's better than the NX forums "upgrade".

 

[moonlight machine]

I hate upgrades, I'll have to learn how to use the forum all over again.

Really? Never an issue for me!
I just hope whatever replaces this won't be some typical millennial bullshit UI!

While it would be nice to drag and drop, it is not big thing

year or two back, the forum was unavailable a fair bit

now, there is a sometimes hours long delay between a response being posted and it being shown as posted

and sometimes threads are posted that show as invalid when you click on them, then later the are ok

I imagine those are the 'outgrowing' symptoms

More than likely one could search PM past posts and find just about everything one needs to know.

Except "What is the difference between an Orange and a bicycle?"

and what Michigan river is likely to have the most Gold.
I am probably one of four people in the world who knows the answers and I'm not telling.

Ops! If you know, please don't tell.

Well now an orange is a vise and a bicycle is a cycle that goes both ways...

Can you tell me which rivers are NOT likely to have the most gold?

TBH I would have to guess the Detroit River. You don't mention knowing which one has the most natural gold. Plenty of jewelry and coins in the river I would imagine.
