  1. Started by HuggyU2,

    I have over 50 messages saved, and with the new forum, it says I have to drop 50 or less to begin pm'ing again. Can you point me toward how I delete messages to get below 50? I do not see a DELETE function like on other sites.

  2. Baseops'ers. The new www.baseops.net will be unveiled soon. Along with the design, I'd like to update a lot of content. If you or somebody you know would like to make a little side money, I need writers to give me updated data on: https://www.baseops.net/militarypilot/ -- and basically every page that this page links to https://www.baseops.net/militarypilot/usaf_ift.html https://www.baseops.net/basictraining/army.html https://www.baseops.net/basictraining/pushups.html https://www.baseops.net/basictraining/airforce.html https://www.baseops.net/basictraining/usmc.html and basically any page that you find that is out of date....

    If your e-mail address is wrong on your baseops profile, and you get a "private" message in our personal message system, the e-mail bounces back to our system and clogs up the e-mail system. It takes a lot of extra time to clean that up, plus I don't wanna see Matmacwc talk to Deaddebate about getting crabs from a hooker in bangkok. But on a serious note, there's no need to jam up the server with bounce-back emails, so when you get the chance, please check your e-mail address in your profile. Or you can shut off e-mail notifications when you get a PM by clicking your name on the top right hand corner of this screen, and then choose "My Settings", then click "Notificat…

    Anyone know how to download a forum / chat for offline reading? Got a long flight coming up and I'm trying to download a multiple page forum to catch up on some base ops reading. Thanks for any help.

    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

    Recently upgraded to IE9. One behavior this site has that I have not seen on other sites: when I click on an external link, I get the new tab w/ the linked page--but I also get the current (baseops) page switching over to the new link (i.e., I end up with *two* of the link I just clicked on as well as being inadvertently navigated away from baseops). It's in the "minor annoyance" category, since a simple work-around is to hold down the CTRL key when clicking (gets you the link on a new page w/o advancing the current one--i.e., the desired behavior), and using the back-arrow for when I forget to do that. Cheers!

    At some point over the past few weeks (maybe even months), for any Baseops page I open, the top tab continues to spin as if the page is still trying to load. The page is fully functional, but it's as if it's still trying to load up. It only happens with Baseops (forums and main pages), no other pages. It only happens with Mozilla (29.0), I'm using Windows 7. I've looked at the Mozilla FAQs and nothing seems to fit (it addresses the spinning, but only for websites that don't open or completely lock up).

  10. I changed my password intentionally (on the account settings page); however, every time I try to sign in with the new password, Baseops states the password is wrong. The only way to log in is to click “Forgot Password” and follow the email that is sent. It seems the site is not saving password changes properly.

    Is there anyway to remove a 'Like' accidentally given to a post? I can remove the reputation point from the poster, but for the life of me I can't figure out how to remove the actual 'Like!' Cheers! M2

  13. E-mail notifications for thread subscriptions no longer appear to be coming through. Doesn't appear to be related to spam folder settings (no BaseOps/FlyingSquadron emails showing up there in my Gmail). In case it helps, the last notification I received on my subscribed thread was on December 4th and there were new posts starting on December 6th which didn't seem to generate e-mail notifications. Issue replicated by @M2 in this thread.

    In this example, the <<, PREV, or 1 button do nothing: However, in a longer thread, they all work fine: Maybe the link info is busted?

    All, Phone apps are a work in progress again. You may have intermittent or complete lack of connectivity for the foreseeable future. Recommend using your phone's browser until I get it resolved. Thanks!

    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

    Friends, We'll be making a transition over to a newer server over the course of the next 5-7 business days (ie starting tomorrow). There may be a period of time where your posts appear, then an hour or two later they disappear. I'll do my best to put up a warning banner at the top during that short (likely hour long) period where posts could get lost. Thanks, DFRESH

    Can we get the app updated to take advantage of the extra screen real estate on the iPhone X and newer phones please? The black bars at the top and bottom make me sad.
