Back just in time for me to leave for seder. I’ll be back to my usual lurking duties in a couple of days. Happy Passover! ---

It’s not making me log in every time I switch forums, but the “jump to the first unread post” isn’t working for me. That could get old fast. ---

I had to login twice before it would stay logged in…I had also requested a password reset when I was initially having problems logging in, so I’ve updated my password too. ---

Excellent! After seven posts I was really getting tired of pretending to enjoy myself over at that other place. ---

I’m in with my usual password. I have no idea what that password is since it’s saved in Chrome. I sent 3 requests for access yesterday a few hours apart. I got no reply to any of them, then an email with all three responses at 4:16 this morning. (4/22) Weird. ---

I’m back in but will be echo the sentiment that the board still isn’t back to its old self just yet. ---

The worst part was the not knowing. There needs to be a range of places where we can get info - Twitter, Facebook, Google+, the Giraffe Boards, somewhere anyone can access just to be informed. ---
