Yeah - that "60 seconds" posting rule drives me crazy, too... who cares? If you have something to post, what's the big deal?

(Not a rant - but a legitimate question that maybe one of the Forum Moderators can answer for us - is it to deal with trolls and *machines* trying to flood the forum with posts? Thanks.)

                 Uh...I do like this forum 

[tuffythepug]

Sometimes a glitch is just a glitch.   Neither myself or Andrew interfered with Danny's post.   Would never do that unless it was a clear violation of forum rules.  Too bad.   I'm always interested to read your posts, Danny.

I think it's my Samsung Tab 2. It's getting pretty old for a tablet. I'm using my new cell phone now and no problems are cropping up.

   I'm sorry for pointing a finger at you or Andrew. Really didn't mean to do so. I  was just frustrated that all the time spent writing just was a waste.
    But seeing that I hold the record for time spent on the forum, that really shouldn't bother me.
    BTW. The topic was how the forum has been an influence on some of the guitar models Larrivee has brought back into production. And even to some degree the 40 series was at least partially do to forum discussions.
     At least,  I think it did.

Gibson did it they do everything.....ok maybe it was Martin or Taylor.



Sometime's I get that 60 sec. and I haven't posted any thing so I start over a little latter.

That's it exactly. Its quite unbelievable, until you are on the "inside" to see how much of this is out there. A few years ago our safeguards were unknowingly relaxed and over a span of a couple weeks the Mod's here deleted over 100 posts involving foreign language, foul language, solicitation you name it. The 60 seconds is just one of those safeguards that at times I also feel aggravated by but see the necessity

Did you guys have a solar eclipse recently? Anything kooky happen? 

Cheers, Scott.

We have lots of birds in our neighborhood.   they stopped chirping for a while as the moon began to blot out the sun.    Dogs began to bark a few minutes before the beginning of the eclipse.  It got darker, (not totally dark, we are not in the path of the totality) and the temp. dropped a few degrees.   I was watching the eclipse through the special glasses when my 3 year old neighbor girl asked me if I was watching the "treasure cat".  It took me a while to discover that her mom had told her the sun would look like a "Cheshire Cat".

I saw it for a couple of seconds then I locked myself in the bathroom as I felt I was becoming a werewolf!!!!!!


I'm ok now but our cats look at me funny like I'm food or maybe a mouse that they want to play with.

So nice of you to ask. I did have a total eclipse of the heart.
    Then I burped and felt much better.

Nothing kooky, but quite a show. Glad I made the effort to see it
