I didn't intend to sound hostile in the previous post, but I don't want to sugar coat things needlessly.
Keeping this forum up and running may not be as cut and dried or easy as you think it is.
Since you see a need that isn't being met maybe you could volunteer to help Admin. He or she might say no, but the offer itself would go a long way towards making you feel less powerless.
Maybe I'll see you in a different thread talking about something directly related to autograph collecting. A much more pleasant subject. I've said about all I know to say about this.
Have a good day. :D

As to the missing posts, my understanding is that it was an issue at the forum host company.

And as I already said, it's quite easy to check an old address yourself via a few google searches/ agency websites. Instead of throwing your toys out of the pram when it doesn't work.

If in doubt, don't send, or do your own research, simple. The database cannot be 100% accurate all the time.

But this topic goes beyond taking something for granted and is just plain foolish.

You know maybe you're right about this site "going down hill in a rocket because it may be closing down"
If I was Admin and I was plagued by useless threads like this I'd get pretty irked myself. Some people have no gratitude or respect. You'll miss what this site has to offer (FOR FREE) when/ if it closes down. Maybe we should all be looking into alternatives for where we're going to find addresses for celebs when this forum stops running. Some members are running this site into the ground.

I KNOW, MAYBE THE ORIGINAL POSTER OR GEORGE CAN START A FORUM TO RIVAL OR REPLACE THIS ONE. THEN HE OR SHE CAN DEAL WITH MEMBERS WHO ACT LIKE SPOILED CHILDREN WHO CAN'T BE PLEASED BY ANYTHING.
Haha well put. Whilst this slowness has been annoying, it is only temporary, and the site is still free.

WOW!! Guess I should not have complained about the site because as soon as I did it slowed down so much you can fall asleep waiting for it to load.

Come on guys/gals gals/guys surely the few of us who have posted here aren't the only ones having a problem. Let's hear from all of you.

Just to get started and feel free to add to this list:
very slow loading
too many out dated addresses
blank pages when checking on many feedbacks
"does not exist" page when checking on older feedbacks
getting no word from admin on what is going on and when it will be corrected

Makes you wonder if they are just letting the site go down hill in a rocket because it may be closing down????

HELLO ADMIN!!!! would you please let us know what is going on???????

Current site rating: {down} {down} {down} {down} {down} {down} {down} {down} {down} {down} {down} {down} X many more.

I was just about to say that. My question is, why so slow? :neutral:
