[QUOTE=wolf\_meister] To paraphrase Claude Rains’ character in the movie “Casablanca”: Posting problems? Here? On the SDMB? I am _shocked_ !!! * * * **Clothahump** you may have just posted the 10,000th _SDMB is a good-fer-nothin’, sidewinder, whippersnappin’, bushwackin’, backstabbin’, etc_ thread. Truth be told I myself have, on occassion, said some less than complimentary remarks regarding the SDMB’s computer resources. 😃 But just like a Dubya-bashing thread, it’s one of those things you just can’t resist joining. [/QUOTE] Yeah, I know. I’m ashamed of myself. I should have had better self-control. But one can always hope that a post like this will prompt a mod to put on a pair of jackboots, pick up the bullwhip and visit the hamster room. I’m just sayin’… ---

[QUOTE=Scuba\_Ben] Every now and then I get a message that my IP address has been blocked. But my ISP provides dynamic IP addresses, so SOMEbody’s been abusing the ISP, but it sure ain’t me! [/QUOTE] If it happens again, email **TubaDiva** ([tubadiva@aol.com](mailto:tubadiva@aol.com)). It may have been blocked in response to a spam attack or something, but it sounds like there’s no reason to leave it in place, since it’s now just inconveniencing a good poster. ---

I have thought many times about starting a Pit thread about the very same thing. I don’t go to many message boards, and this is the only one I have to pay for. That this is the only one I have a problem with at least once a day is irritating to me. Can’t the SDMB upgrade to squirrels or something? ---
