  1. Is there a setting or some other method to not see a particular user when looking at threads? A "block" or "mute" option?

    Anybody else having issues with the "View New Content' option? It's hit or miss for me - checked on both Mozilla (v31.0) and IE11. Cookies are enabled and this is a factor when signed in. When I hit "View New Content" I generally get a "Sorry, no new content found." message. However, when I click to the forums, there are plenty of unread threads. Occasionally it will turn up threads with the New Content option, but generally not all of the unread messages. After selecting the function and receiving the "no new content" message, I can go to the BO app and have it successfully return all the unread messages.

    It used to be that when I read a post and would see that someone had "Liked" it, I could click on the Like emblem and the person's that gave the rating would show up. Now, it does not do that (hasn't for sometime, actually). Glitch? Or planned change?

    This has been a problem for a while; just getting around to squaking code-2. I am only able to open ~1/4 of posted links at most. They neither open in the app, or push over to another browser. So if I'm really curious about a link, the fix has been to open up BODN in Chrome. Any fix within the app for this? Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums

    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?

    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.

  7. I use the standard media tags--(media)(/media) but with brackets instead of parentheses--but the post still only shows the URL and doesn't embed the video into the post. What gives?!?

    It has come to my attention that some of our long time members accounts disappeared during the migration. I have a priority ticket in with the programmers to re-connect those accounts. Please bear with me as I get this straightened out. If your account went missing, please e-mail me the pertinent details to: missingaccount at flyingsquadron.com

    ALCON, If a thread you either started or frequent has suddenly gone missing, please let me know so I can repair it. Requests made prior to 2300Z today will most likely be dealt with today. Anything after that may take a while, since I'm mid-PCS. Thanks!

    I haven't been able to see anything or log in on mobile since last week. I tried to update the app but it seems to be gone from the Google play store. It has stopped working for me for a couple days before but never this long. There's a solid chance I'm missing something but I'd like to see it working again.

    First let me say, thanks for all you guys do to keep this a great site. Now for the bitching- Can we lock the polls on threads after 30 days or some appropriate time so they don't get bumped to the top everytime someone votes?

    With the new board I have not had a problem going to the last page when I click on a thread. At first, when the new board appeared, if I was on page 72 then clicked on 71 it would take a few extra seconds to load. Today, and last couple times I have been on, it is just endlessly loading. No matter what thread I have clicked, the last page will load almost instantly. However, on any thread, if I click on the page before with the last page already loaded, the top banner and stuff will load but the threads never load... just a loading symbol. I have to check my mobile still, but this is happening on Win 8 in IE11 and chrome fully updated. Anyone else have this issue or…

    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.

    Never happened before but this Hilton popup at the bottom of the screen goes right over the bottom of the reply/message container. Unable to click to enter reply. Tried it on Chrome, Edge and IE. Hilton - you are killing me!

    Looks like the site was upgraded this evening. Didn't see the +/- for reputation on posts. Am I correct here or just stupidity on my part?

    I recently had a post edited, I think from a mod. I imagine it was for general internet smartassery but the original post does not say "This post has been edited by ______: Today, 11:55 AM" or whatever the edit tag at the bottom of a message displays. I went into the orignal post and edited it myself, and the post does not display edited by slacker. Is my crap broken?

    It's not an important issue but thought I'd mention it. Every time I try to vote a post up (the little green circle with a + in it), I get the error: Action failed: You have reached your quota of positive votes for the day. Is my quota 0 or is it broken?

    Routinely having my browser (Firefox 45.0.1) lock up with a particular "waiting for..." message when accessing BODN (and nowhere else). I assume it's an ad, and my caveman-level of ability to read what shows up when I navigate directly leads me to believe it's eBay.... Anyway, the specific site is: dco-cdn.w55c.net
