Apple Discussions Meltdown?

They have taken the day off, it seems...

by **ski** » Sat Apr 16, 2011 12:40 pm

Well... are they going to be back "soon" or "shortly"? Geez, you'd think with all of their resources that they'd be able to be a little more definite about it. Maybe someone missed a meeting?

:lol:

Yeah, you may elloëlle all you like, but don't underestimate them! They did that on purpose, so as to deviate genius minds like yours from what is really going on by focusing on a small matter of sloppy editing , not noticing the subliminal post-it endorsement... parasites I tell you!

The Logic Forum should at least have said "Be Back at 109 1 1 1" or something like that.....

We'll see if they shut down on the 20th...(4/20) then we'll know why they were preparing themselves... :roll:

I dare now say: neither.
We will probably all have to retrieve our password again, without actually having lost it...

Wow, major :shock:

Apple discussions GUI makeover:

BUT BUT BUT trouble again, like last time:

I guess its me.... gonna watch some TV... :cry:

I couldn't get logged on at my first attempt, I tried again straight away & I managed to get logged on.

The end of that slogan should have been "...so we don't have to."

(Sorry, but I woke up on the cynical side of the bed this morning.)

I asked for it, so I got it. To me it represents three years of answering, learning, and discovering the fullfilling side of helping people, in good spirits (mostly...)
and now I'm erased like a Northkorean dissident. I never existed. I'm glad it's only virtual, it feels absolutely creepy... not infernal, but definitely Anxiety...

This sounds like you know why you might have been banned, have you been banned or have you just entered your details too many times & the system can't cope.

I can think of a few other manufacturer ran forums that have a similar policy :cry:

I was listed second top user, I not listed anymore. I have had no communication apart from two standard "message removed" notices.
I had protested the removal of a thread, started by very esteemed and helpful musician and veteran Logic user Pancenter. There were people complaining, but also people exploring and explaining the new features. Strictly speaking, that is against the guidelines. But to me it is very common sense that you let people get used to it in the social manner that is, well, very people-ish, you see? So I protested it firmly (no abuse though. But maybe I was too assertive. I tried to blackmail them with leaving. When they just responded by deleting and a standard mail, I got a case of net-rage, and called for the top members to boycott the site (that would include Ski) The only thing I really regret doing is encouraging people to join LPH and leave Apple. My apologies to the team here for that.

I'm still pretty gutted. Thought I had this thing (limitlessness in communication) under control. Once I suffered a writers block, now I'm turning hypergraphic! Where's dr. Phil when you need him?

But I really should go to the woods - on acid.

disclaimer: I haven't reread the above once, so no clue if it makes sense - I have to go now.

Thanks.

Had you posted your sarcastic message on Apple Discussions you would have been erased... any mention of your existence deleted.... It's the last Coda for you buddy!

Apples forum/format upgrade is a bust

I've had an account here for a couple of years but don't think I've ever posted.

OMG! OMG! Not the... the... THE LAST CODA!?!?!?

What would I do? I mean... once the gig's over, all that's left to do is... is...

OMG, I don't even want to think about it. Not... again...

Well, PanClancyCenter, it's great to have you aboard here at LPH! My heartiest welcome to another expat from Apple/Logicville.

Oh, and...

Yeah, I can't do that stuff anymore either! :wink:

Thanks for the welcome.

I still go by the Apple discussions forum, it's like driving by a bad accident. I just posted a little rant about entitled users and lack of respect for the software.

I guess it's something that hits you at a certain age... heh.. hey, time to act like a curmudgeon!

Good to see you Clancy!

Anyone wanna join in the Refrain?

Hi Erik, thanks...

Now here's something interesting, regarding 440hz.

That really, really, REALLY..... Hertz!

"I have done research" and "can I change the Hertz?" OMG, I'm dyin' over here!

But here's the best part... Safari got hung up as I was reading that post, presumably (I presume) because the Apple server was busy spitting out thousands, if not millions of similar posts into my browser window.
