This board has a spam prevention control which groups all newly registered users into the group "User on Probation." This status lasts for for 48 hours after you confirm your account and while you are a member of this group, all posts must be approved by a moderator and you cannot start any new topics. This is primarily a spam prevention effort, but it also serves to let the noobs hang out and look through the forums for a while before asking a potentially dumb or previously answered question. If you are newly registered and would like to bypass this waiting period, send me a PM and I will unlock it. Do not reply to this thread, as that won't necessarily alert me.

Hey folks, over the next few weeks, I'll be migrating to a newer server. There may be some random down time and/or a few lost posts when I "flip the switch". I'll alert everybody with a sticky post and it'll be in the middle of the night sometime in the next few weeks.

As of tonight, I'm getting these two pages when I try to go to the forums main page. I'm using Firefox 23.0.1 on OS X 10.6.8 And when I click "Why was this page blocked?"

Sorry guys - we are working on the forums errors right now. We'll be upgrading the host hardware shortly..

Folks, In a few weeks, I will be performing a major upgrade. I will make a few more announcements here once I know when the expected down time and duration will be.

Just curious what everyone thinks about a baseops chat feature, similar to the one facebook and gmail use. I think it would be really handy for quick comms between members without going through the formalities and bandwidth issues of PM's.

For several days, whenever I open the Baseops app on my iPhone, it shows no content under "unread." I thought signing out and back in (on the app) might fix things but now I cannot log back into the app. Whenever I try to login, I get a pop up with 50+ pages of error code. I have no issue logging in via safari on the iPhone or on my computer. Anyone else having this issue?

Apparently an individual with the profile name "uaeflyman" sent several PMs to people asking for help in locating flight manuals for the Su-24. His account has been flagged and banned, and all three of his IP addresses (Washington, Berlin, and Tehran - 46.36.116.56) have likewise been banned, so he should not be able to log back in with that account. You do not need to report any PMs you receive, simply delete them.

Hey folks. Gonna be a little while before the next update to the Apple version of the app, but it's going to be a significant update when it finally goes through. Just an info note.

After just 2 posts, I'd like to change my name.. MDdieselpilot Thanks for the help -

Went to do a search for PRK in the medical forum and received the following error message: Sorry, an error occurred.

It appears that the SSL certificate for the site expired last week.

Hope everybody is happy to see BODN back! There were a lot of attacks occurring over the past few weeks. Today I was finally able to get access to the server side, unfortunately about 4 hours too late. Fortunately, I have been able to get the server restarted! So, there may be some down time and some new/different looking icons over the next 24 hours as I run much needed updates to our server.

Due to some administrative issues we're trying to work through, it's possible that the Baseops forums will go offline at midnight on 31 December. Stand by to stand by for further words.

so, I used to not have a problem logging into the boards from work, but then we migrated to AFNET, and the redirect page when you hit submit to login gets blocked. In the past if they happened, I was usually able to just refresh the page and the login would have taken, but not anymore. Any idea how to login at work, or are we just SOL?

Anyone else with a Mac getting a malware warning when trying to access the Baseops.net jobs page at www.guardreservejobs.com?

Did the advertising on these forms just get a whole lot worse for anybody else? It seems like I have to click through five pop ups and banners now just to navigate to the next topic. I'm not sure I can browse the forums much longer like this, but I wanted to make sure it's not just my phone

So I fucked up and changed my theme from IP.Board to IP.Board (Pre 3.2). I can only post from my phone now and I can't seem to find the Change theme button in this format. Anyone have ideas for switching it back?

I was doing a google for something and ended up on one of the TDY gouge pages of your wiki area. One thing I noticed was that the home page located here>> The baseops wiki page has been vandalized numerous times since the 27th of July 2009 with extensive spam links. I reverted it back to what appears to be the last good version from last October. I would suggest that someone with admin privileges at a minimum make that page protected so only certain members can edit it. I think it would be safe to assume without the page protection, the spammers would just come back and revert once again to their last spam edits for that page. I did not come across any of the…

Embedded YouTube videos do not show on the android app. Tested multiple times on the flying videos thread. Also sometimes the app crashes when refreshing the "unread section or switching betweeen "timeline" and "unread." Using latest android os.

Any idea when the Aviation Jobs site will be back up? Unable to access via Safari.

Can we still change our screen name? I tried the help function to no avail. Thanks! X tonestud. Now KWRI 17's.

When I go into a thread that has multiple pages, if I click on the double right arrow (the one that takes me to the last posts), it goes to a page that has no posts, and the page is somewhat unresponsive. It does this on multiple threads I've tried.

I have cookies enabled, but every time I visit the forums, I have to log in again. Seems to be an issue with this board, as I didn't have any trouble with the previous board version, or on other message boards I frequent. It's not a big deal, but I figured I'd write it up in case there's a possible fix to it.
