Sandy Vongries Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 From what I understand, moderators have no more access to administration than anyone else. Speaking strictly from my experience, that is true. there may actually no longer be "an administration" to speak of. That is not correct - there is an administration, and they can be contacted via CreativeLive Admin As to the rest, what the situation is and how it evolves remains to be seen. IMO contacting Admin via PM is better for the site than airing the issues in public. That said, each person has to determine what they believe to be the best course of action.

michaellinder Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Sandy, I too am grateful for your efforts to get Admin to fix this problem. Assuming that the required fix might take a lot of time and effort, I can see our taking the "getting more with honey than with vinegar" approach. However, what I find really difficult to swallow is that, aside from the problem continuing, Admin apparently hasn't made a whole lot of effort even to respond to this thread. That hardly would take any effort at all. I'm going to wait another few hours. If the problem isn't resolved by that time, I'm going to put on my aggressive uniform and contact the home office aside from sending a PM to Kenna. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Shadow Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 That is not correct - there is an administration, and they can be contacted via CreativeLive Admin I said there was no administration to speak of, and until I’m shown otherwise, I’ll stick to that. The new administration hasn’t shown their face enough or interest in membership enough to speak of. airing the issues in public You’re not seriously saying this with a straight face, I hope. If so, irony is truly dead. There’s always something new under the sun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaellinder Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 By the way, the problem may be much worse than we think. After the site confirmed that the comments I drafted in response to a member's request for critique had been successfully posted, they simply disappeared.

gordonjb Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 As of yesterday I'm as likely as not to get an error message or some assinine abitrary number of seconds delay before being allowed to post. I miss Glenn, he could at least be counted on to delete a few comments and ban a few people for pointing out the obvious. Yes John I do remember those days. It has been a long slow slide to the bottom. Just for shits and giggles, I think that the Creative Live wankers should make the last 40 or so people using this site all admins. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-P Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 I miss you to Gordo we had some fun didn't we. I pinged the tech crew on this issue with the expectation he can fix it for you all - hopefully soon. CreativeLive will treat you well folks - not quite sure how they like being called wankers...but time will tell. IMHO they are good people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaellinder Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Just several minutes ago, I noted that an image I tried earlier on to upload to this week's Landscape thread finally appeared. For those of you who like Norse mythology, it's as if Loki has been engaged in a cruel joke. If you are fans of Rene Descartes, I liken this to the work of the Evil Genius. It's time to bring out the heavy artillery. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, Michael. “Out, out, brief flash! Life of a small time amateur photog’s but a walking shadow, a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the increasingly empty PN-stage. And then is heard no more. It is a tale told by an idiot, full of empty stutter, shutter-bursts and fury. Signifying nothing.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
