I was not able to get into the forums at all. Kept saying corrupt connection. Everything back to normal now?

Sorry about that. My day job has me working pretty long hours at the moment so I was simply unaware the forums were down.

Kind regards
Sharp.

The forums being down has coincided with at least the last four Microsoft monthly updates. They used to be "update Tuesdays" though I don't get notification of upgrades on a Windows 7 PC until Wednesday, and the Forum is generally down later that day.

the new ms security stuff code is hard on 3rd party software like phb bb.

We appreciate everything you do, Sharp.

Has it been 19 years ?

To have that longevity and quality is a sign of greatness.

A big THANKS is always in order for Sharp!

I tend to tell myself when the forum goes down "okay maintenance time again" then check back the next day. Longer maintenance than usual this time ;)

I add my thanks to Sharp and his team!

Enormous task done in such a great and reliable way for so many years! And one of the most informative and best moderated forums I have ever seen!

That's why the forum is immediately missed whenever it is down.

Agreed, many thank to Sharp and team. This forum is easy on the eyes, quick to glance over post topics, and well-organized into sub-forums.

The Kronos sub-forum is the best... :3dread:

can't wait ! ;)

Here in Northern California, our utility , PG&E is shutting down power from 1 to 5 days.

A slight inconvenience to not have electricity.

Perfect storm= no power, MS update ;)

I was hoping Korg announced a new Kronos and the forum crashed due to the collective excitement :lol:
