TMP

[SV52]

It would seem that TMP has changed its operating conditions, non-supporting members can no longer post to the boards.  That includes replying to your own previous posts.  No pay, no post. Search facility still available.

It is only while Bill is on Holiday for two weeks, then it should be back to normal.

That would only be normal by the rather strange standards of TMP

Oh for a like button.

TMP exists to remind other wargames groups that a basic civility is useful.

TMP does seem to have a lot of people desperately seeking to be offended, especially by people for whom English is a second language.

This post has the potential to become something that is contrary to the standard of posting here .... best left alone.

It was a news bulletin and the simple truth.  How others choose to comment upon it is beyond my control.  '... contrary to the standard of posting...'  bit strong old boy.

That is kind of Tango's attitude. Which is one of the reasons I left TMP for. Let us just not. Please.

With you on that one KT. So much more fun when everyone is relaxed about the hobby.

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

What does "relaxed" mean ?

[Leman]

You don't hate the Welsh just because they're Welsh. You hate individuals because they are unpleasant, and you then avoid their company. Right, I'm off now

I spend a good portion of my day reading & replying to email. There seem to be very few people in this country for whom English is a FIRST language, at least as far as email is concerned...

Just to clarify, I was meaning English speaking people seeking to be offended, often deliberately misinterpreting. Apologies if I gave the impression otherwise, a racist I am most certainly not.

Nothing wrong with the occasional flame war on line, it's great to watch Bill start an argument and then get offended by himself ;-)

TMP isn't even good for selling items anymore. I used to post items there all the time and have them sold within a week. Not a bite on some good deals these past few weeks. Looks like I will have to hold off on buying Pendraken's new Korean War line.

[Mako]

I suspect the lack of responses to sales ads is due to many people that have left, others that have been locked out by Bill, and/or people that don't have supporting memberships, so can't post there right now.

Even Tango01 was not able to do that for a while, but somehow that got changed during Bill's absence, so he's posting again.  Before that, they were down to just a handful of postings a day, since Bill is gone, so not posting threads either.  Even most of the "NEWS" postings were/are halted.

A pity, but a lot of people have moved on, or are just "visiting", and no longer posting/replying to various threads.  It's been that way for quite some time.

Thanks for the heads up on this. I just posted something to TMP and couldn't understand why it had all gone so quiet.

TMP has been my general go-to site for years. If it is in decline, where has everybody gone?
