Whats the go with the site?

[GS750]

Ive been de-registered twice now.........

Its starting to get annoying, It seems that just because you dont get online every day of the week the site somehow automatically de-registers you.............

There is description the "announcment" section, about the 5th or 6th one "database purges". I had been "purged" once myself, but understand why.

Re: Whats the go with the site?

I believe Frank has it set up so that if you do not logon for 60 days, you are deleted. Considering the turnover of 1 or 2 post newbies, things would get out of hand if things were left to snowball. LOL

I don't post very often, so I have been a 2 or 3 post newbie for years now. I just keep recreating my account.

The purge period had been changed from 60 to 90 days because it was inconvenient for some folks. Fine. But now we get someone who either doesn't visit, log in or post something for 90 days and he's whining because he got purged from the database. Boo hoo. Sorry pal, you get no sympathy here. Non-participants get purged - simple as that. Strike One...

Besides, this thread does not belong in the Technical area. Strike Two... :twisted:

Not always 60 or 90 days. I rarely miss a day visiting this site. On june 20th I had posted a reply to someone's question, & everything was fine. Less than 10 min. later I tried to post another reply to another question & found I had been completely deleted from the site. I couldn't believe what had been deleted. I went back & looked up questions that I had posted replys to & found the questions & everyone elses responses were there, but my responses were deleted. I couldn't find anything anywhere on the site that related to me. It took me a few days to think to try re-registering, I re-registered using the same screen name, same password, same e-mail address, everything exactly like before and everything worked perfectly. The only change was, now I've been a member since June 24th 2005, and I was originally a member since sometime in 2002 or 2003. Never knew what happened, but it sure wasn't from not visiting the site nor posting for 60 days. Golly, why is there so much I don't know about these durn computers???

Y'know Frank, come to think of it, what happens if you dont sneak in at least once every 90 days? :-) :-) You might have to come back as 1100ED. LOL
