2004 Letters to the Editor

[Travel Sales]

Hey Jackson,

Love your site is there any way to incoparate spell ck for us dunb asses that cant spell?

[DropFrame]

First, Jackson, let me congratulate you on the new forum. It is wonderful.

Today, I noticed a small problem. When I did the new posts search it came up with a list. One of these had "Current Reports" as the thread and the forum as "Other Areas." There was no way for me to know what part of the world was "Other Areas." Only after clicking on it did I discover it was Rhode Island, USA.

Perhaps you have a way to correct this small problem. My suggestion might be to change the name of all such genericly labeled forums to include the master forum name (e.g., Rhode Island Other Areas)

Greetings , Jackson !!

With 2005 rapidly approaching , now might be a good time to re·institute the old 'WSG Benefactor' Status

But while the previous designation denoted members who had donated money for charitable purposes , this time the funds should be used solely to support this site [ because it must cost you a friggin' arm and a left nut to run this place ]

Best Wishes for a Happy New Year to You and Yours !!

[My Own Again]

Can someone tell me how to become a regular member please? I am already a regular member, otherwise I would not be able to write this, but my friend is not. He is a viewing member and would like to contribute. In the "Regular Member Upgrade" it says "...select the link provided at the top of the Forum's Table of Contents. " We cannot find this link.

Please help!

Ljohnson,

You subscribed by default when you posted. Have a look here or here.

Some functions of User CP may be disabled by Jackson temporarily and it seems that some people are unable to unsubscribe, but I have no problem unsubscribing myself.

[Ljohnson]

Jackson, or anyone,

I keep getting emails informing me that someone has responded to a WSG thread to which I "subscribed." I am not aware of "subscribing" to anything. Am I doing something to cause me inadvertently to "subscribe?" I suspect other members are having the same experience.

Jackson, I must congratulate you for providing such a wonderful forum to people who are looking forward to mongering information so desparately. This is not only informative but a decent and cooperative Forum. I don't think there is any other Forum or website which provides such useful info about SWs/mongering scenatio across the Globe.

Thanks

Hey there,

It's me again. I would like to take this opportunity to compliment you on the new look and the function of the site. It took a little getting used to, but everything seems to be working just fine.

One question. With all the improvements to the software, would it be easier to add a photo section for every country now? There are quite a few countries that have no photo section (for no apparent reason). One example of this situation, Mongolia actually HAS a photo section, while Kenya does not.

Just a thought,

Rock

To solve these problems and complete the backlog, I am currently cunducting interviews to hire an editor.

"Cuntducting" sounds too much like HVAC work for a guy with a bad shoulder, but, hey, whatever turns you on!

Seriously, I just wanted to add one more voice to the chorus: you're amazing, and here's to better health and more free time Real Soon Now. I know from experience that physical therapy is no damned fun at the time (unless you're a masochist, I guess), but going through it is better for you in the long run than blowing it off, I think.

jackson, i've had the precise problem you describe, as well as some arm problems, stemming from the same thing. the solution that has worked for me was to track down a keyboard that had a touchpad built into it so i eliminated reaching for a mouse. unfortunately, those never got all that popular, so they're tough to find, but they're still around and do the trick. i prefer the ones with the touchpad in the middle, which makes them pretty much the same configuration as my laptop.

i wish you a swift recovery, and thanks and kudos again on the site. it seems from this end that you've got the server problems mostly licked -- nice speed, only occasional problems connecting -- and while i know there is still much to do i for one very much like the new version.

[Mischief81]

jackson,

ouch. what did you do to your shoulder? i've separated both of mine, one playing football, the other installing a dishwasher. :d

i aprreciate all of your work on the wsg forum. it is a unique resource. i've also requested a senior member upgrade, but i can wait until you get around to it.

ps: if you think that shoulder hurts now, wait until the rehab gets going. i think physical therapists are closet sadists.

hi mischief,

a change in my desk/computer setup resulted in a pinched nerve in my neck that has made it painful to type or use the mouse with my right hand.

you're right about the physical therapists. i always hurt more after the treatments than before, but i'm determined to resolve the problem.

i appreciate your understand the delay in sm upgrades. your application is in the queue and it will be processed as soon as it is possible.

thanks,

jackson

[Migrant One]

Jackson,

As always thanks for the work, even while injured!!

I have had 3 operations on mine and it still doesn't work right so keep up any offered therapy.

I also found massages by beautiful women, while not always helping the shoulder, tend to make one feel better.

Dear Jackson

I have emailed you an update of the Thai FAQs. Not much has changed;only a few bonking prices have been changed and Alexander's useful post has been included. I hope this will help restore the quality of that section of the board.

I also hope you recover soon. You have done a great job on the board and your actions are beyond criticism. I am sure with your BA friends, you will figure out the best way forward. All up, it must be one of the best sites on the entire www, the BBC of this hobby.

I will be busy over the next few months with tender, luscious women. Depending on how they treat me and/or I treat them, I might be back before too long.

Take care and thanks for eveything.

Domino

The search feature is still not working.... Also when you click on current reports quite often it will display the first post instead of the most recent post.

Thanks
