Scott: you know I respect you but you obviously haven't read my latest posts in this thread. First, the entire forum went down not too long ago anyway and we lost a lot of posts then, which would've been the perfect time to upgrade the forum software if that was required. I'd welcome a shutdown if it would improve the forum - other forums do it.

But more to the point, even my smallest request like updating the FAQ is being rejected - does that require updating the forum software too? Why isn't anyone answering that? I've tried to compromise down to the smallest possible degree and now my proposals aren't even being read before being rejected apparently.

Forget me - Nigel's registration statement is a plea to keep topics music-related and even something that basic is widely ignored, even by you Scott. There's nothing more to discuss, not that you guys were listening in the first place.
