Is there a Mod in the house?

[Call Me Wesley]

Heidi's account has been kicked out by the SPAM filter. :(

[Call Me Wesley]

1. Kick.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

2. I think the time for the forum is off too.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

3. Hi there, my dear Call Me Wesley!

She contacted me and I have hopefully been able to take care of it...

:shrug:

[Crazy Guggenheim]

4. Here they are!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

5. Is that the mod squad?

Oh good grief!

:rofl:

[DanCa]

46. Julie rocked and link was cool what was the name of the other guy

[Crazy Guggenheim]

50. Pete Cochran. Beverly Hills.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

6. How about them?

[ghostsofgiants]

9. Maybe if we call in some rockers we can get Heidi back

[billyskank]

7. Hey, Heidi ain't no spam artist!

:grr: to the spam filter. :(

[Crazy Guggenheim]

8. Is this them?

[Fox Mulder]

10. My time is messed up here too.

Everything that's updated says it's 3:30 am, but it's 2:30 am CST.

Unless I'm the one that's messed up...:shrug:

PS: Come back Heidi!

[enigmatic]

11. Hey bro!

The board is really wonky for me tonight as well; not sure what's up.

Thanks again for the package; I hope you and Heidi enjoy yours:)

[Heidi]

12. I am back from the dead!

Thank you to California Peggy, southlandshari, Skinner, Elad and EarlG for retiring the tombstone I've had all day as a result of a glitch!

Group hug, people! :grouphug:

Tombstoned no more,

Heidi :bounce: ing

[Mutley]

16. Yay!

I was scared for a second. WB Heidi! :hug:

[Heidi]

17. You never have to be afraid that I'll break the rules, my freckled friend.

My dark side is beige. :eyes: But I sure would have missed you, gf, if I'd really been banned. I was only caught in the Spam filter. Too many :hug: I guess. :rofl:

[merh]

18. Is that what happens?

sfexpat2000 was ts'd early this a.m. and we don't know why?

Spam filter? What the heck is that and how does it happen?

[Heidi]

19. I'm not sure what triggers it . . .

But it seems it happened to quite a few people who have donor stars. Our stars remained, but our avatars disappeared, and we got "tombstones" in our member profiles. We noticed it with sfexpat2000 and SeattleGirl, two DUers least likely to _ever_ merit banning. That's how we figured out that it was a glitch. BIG kisses to Skinner, EarlG and Elad for getting me reinstated. I'm sure the others will come along soon, if they're not already reinstated. :thumbsup:

[merh]

21. Wow - what a kooky glitch.

I'm glad to learn that sfexpat2000 and SeattleGirl will be reinstated. I'd miss them both.

Glad you have been resurrected! :hug:

[southlandshari]

66. Your kisses are misdirected, missy.

Who do you think let you back in?

[EFerrari]

73. Shari, I promise, I will be good.

thankyouthankyouthankyou.

It was so wierd to be able to read DU but not post! I felt quite dead.

Let that be a lesson to me.

:hi:

[merh]

80. Three cheers for shari!

Hip hip hooray! Hip hip hooray! Hip hip hooray!

:hug: :loveya: :hug:

[Mutley]

20. There are never too many hugs.

Welcome back! Haha.

[Heidi]

13. self-delete (dupe)

[In_The_Wind]

14. Hey There ~ Call Me Wesley

to DU

BTW ... you are married to a really great woman!

[Call Me Wesley]

15. Thank you so much

for the warm welcome. It's most meanigful when it comes from people who Heidi respects the most on DU.

[In_The_Wind]

26. Thank You Call Me Wesley! That's quite a complement.

Your gracious reply shows that you and Heidi are well suited for one another :thumbsup:

[merh]

22. Welcome to DU, Call Me Wesley!

:hi: Thanks for calling this glitch to the admin's attention. :hug:

[Call Me Wesley]

24. Thank you too for the welcome, merh!

And I think the glitch is taken good care of.

[merh]

27. sfexpat2000 is still caught in the glitch.

I hope they catch all that were ts'd due to this glitch.

SeattleGirl, sfexpat2000, madeline_con ????

:hi:

[Heidi]

28. Hi, merh!

Thank you for the warm welcome back.

Maybe Skinner, EarlG and Elad have to reinstate everyone manually. I have no idea, but we'd notice sfexpat2000 and SeattleGirl as disappearing at the same time I disappeared during the time change. Mr. Heidi / Call Me Wesley went through the whole Lounge this morning and helped me figure out which of the regular "crew" went missing during that period, so if I don't see them reinstated by morning, I'll send PMs to Skinner and the mods. (SeattleGirl is a regular "Nighthawk" so she'll notice later tonight that she can't post.)

Thank you, merh, for recognizing that some of us are still MIA! :hug:

:loveya: gf!

[merh]

29. It happened like a bad sci fi accident - so many went

missing at one time. I was just posting with sfexpat and tried to send her a pmail and she was ts'd. When I did a little research, I found her last post was in LBN and she and madaline_con were ts'd, though there was no flame fest. (I so hate missing a healthy exchange when sfexpat is one of the exchangers.)

Now that I have a puter at home, I hope to be able to stop in and say hello to the Nighthawks. :hi:

:hug: :loveya:

[Heidi]

32. merh, we would be honored

to have you among the Nighthawks. Truly. You've a loving and compassionate soul, and I regret that the time zones have kept me from getting to know you better. (I love sfexpat, too, but again with the time difference . . . )

You'll get a kick out of this, though: I truly thought I'd been tombstoned for the thread I started Friday night: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=4223113&mesg_id=4223113

I honestly thought I'd somehow pissed off or hurt one of my homies from Muskogee. :cry:

[EFerrari]

34. The worst thing was not knowing which one was the bad thing!

I hope if I get a ts, I know what the heck I did!

:think:

[merh]

38. Honey, you have had some healthy exchanges in the past and

you have handled them all with grace and snark. I don't believe you have a bad bone in your body. :hug:

[EFerrari]

41. It's a sign. I better be good today.

:rofl:

Okay, I'm going to get some smokes. Anyone need something from the store?

Thanks for your help, merh!

[merh]

43. I'd like a reese cup and a dr. pepper, if you don't mind.

You are welcome my friend. :hug:

[EFerrari]

45. Okay. I'll be back. n /t

[EFerrari]

47. Here you go.

(Sorry, they only had the large economy size!

[merh]

48. Damn, those are super sized!

:crazy: thank you kindly :hug: :hi:

[EFerrari]

63. "Nothing but the best for you, Baby."

:)

[merh]

67. (((hug)))

:hug:

[merh]

37. I love that thread!!!

(and I so appreciated your schmoe thread and your reply to the schmuck that precipitated that thread)

Have you ever heard the Mississippi version of this song?

I'm proud to be a hippie from Mississippi
A place where even squares can come to ball
We still smoke that marijuana at the courthouse
and orange sunshine still the greatest thrill of all! :D


I hadn't thought of that song in years! :rofl:

The honor will be mine to be a part of the Nighthawks and it looks like sfexpat has discovered the love in the lounge, so maybe she will seek lizardhood soon.

Thanks so much for your kind words. :blush: :hug: :loveya:

[Heidi]

39. Oh, my goodness, merh . . .

I hadn't heard the Mississippi version of that thread, but I do appreciate the "even squares can come to ball" part of it. :rofl: Now I know where to go if Switzerland ever becomes old-hat. :rofl:

Come on down to the Nighthawks thread whenever you getta chance, gf. We'll be honored.

[merh]

42. I'll see you there tonight!

:hi: :hug:

[SeattleGirl]

78. merh, I'm so glad you will be able to join the Nighthawks!

And so glad I'm back from the "dead"!

:hug: :loveya:

[RetroLounge]

23. Hey There!

and welcome to DU...

:hi:

RL

[Call Me Wesley]

25. Hey there back atcha you!

Thank you for the welcome. :)

[EFerrari]

30. Omigod! That was really creepy!

I couldn't figure out which one of my posts was that bad!

:rofl:

I could see you all from The Great Beyond!

Thank you, merh, Heidi, my dear California Peggy and welcome, Call Me Wesley!

[merh]

31. Yippppeeee!

So glad you are back! :bounce: :bounce:

I missed you so! So glad I can put the Ouija Board away, I hate having it out on Halloween. :scared:

:hug: :loveya:

[EFerrari]

33. I don't know about you all, but I'm going to mind my manners

That was awful!

:freak:

Before you put it away, merh, what does it say about our deck furniture? Is it coming on Monday I hope!

:bounce: :bounce::bounce:

:hug:

/bouncy guy

[Heidi]

35. YOU'RE BACK!

Mr. Heidi (Call Me Wesley) went through the Lounge this morning to help me determine which of my DU friends were MIA, and when he told me you and SeattleGirl disappeared at the same time, I knew it _had_ to be a glitch.

So glad you're back, sfexpat2000! :hug: :loveya:

[EFerrari]

36. Thanks to both of you!

:hi:

Hallowe'en started early this year!

lol

[merh]

40. LOL - no way will I abuse the Ouija board to track your deck

furniture. I don't like abusing it. May I suggest you use the online tracking features that are available? :shrug:

And yes, I believe that I will watch my p's and q's - unexplained ts'ing is scarey. :freak: :scared:

[EFerrari]

44. Ouija is much more reliable than the USPS.

Oh well, it's just have to be a surprise then.

Scarey, yes indeedy. Maybe I should change usernames to "repat".

:)

[Call Me Wesley]

49. Thank you for the welcome!

And I'm glad that you're back from the glitch void.

[SeattleGirl]

51. I'm back too!!!

I had no idea why I had been tombstoned! I actually cried when I could not get back on DU! Thanks shouthlandshari for gettng me back on!! :hug:

[Renew Deal]

53. lol

:cry:

[SeattleGirl]

55. I know, I know.

But really, it WAS upsetting to get tombstoned, and not be able to figure out what the heck I had done so wrong!

[EFerrari]

56. I stayed up worrying about whatever it was that I said!

So good to see you, SeattleGirl!

:hug:

[SeattleGirl]

58. So did I.

I got tombstoned right after heidi did. I went back to my latest posts in the lounge and GD: CIA Leak, and just could not figure out what I had said that would get me kicked off. Then I picked several long threads in the Lounge and GD, and started looking. I saw that my avatar was gone, yours was gone, heidi's was gone, and in just 4 threads, found 45 DUers who's avatars were gone. So I was hoping it was a problem with the site, and not with US! Nice to be back, and nice to see you back too!

:hug:

[EFerrari]

59. Some disruptors we turned out to be!

:rofl:

:hug:

[SeattleGirl]

61. Yeah, we'll have to tone it down now!!

:rofl:

[EFerrari]

62. I was so scared! I thought, "Me, what have you DONE?"

:rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

65. Yeah, you are SO bad!!

:rofl:

[EFerrari]

68. . . . . .

:rofl:

[merh]

79. So glad you are back Seattle Girl!

:hug: DU would not have been the same without you. :hug:

:loveya:

[SeattleGirl]

81. Thank you, merh!

:hug: :loveya: :hug: :loveya:

[SeattleGirl]

52. A belated "welcome" to Call Me Wesley!

Nice to have you here! :hi:

[Call Me Wesley]

54. Thank you!

It's nice to actually be on here amongst great people after Heidi asked me for quite a time to sign up.

[EFerrari]

57. You are my hero because you figured it out.

:toast:

[Call Me Wesley]

60. Nah, I didn't, really ...

I was just being curious, so I looked through a few threads and clicked on the profile of members who have a donor star but no avatar to show up, so I found some others ts'ed and could calm Heidi down a bit. ;)

[EFerrari]

64. Look, you're my hero. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

:rofl:

[Call Me Wesley]

69. Uh-oh

Then I'd better go with it ...

:rofl:

[EFerrari]

70. Thanks for being here.

:hi:

[Call Me Wesley]

71. Thank you again.

:toast:

[ghostsofgiants]

74. Welcome to DU, by the way...

If Heidi married you, you must be cool, haha.

[Call Me Wesley]

75. Thanks for the welcome.

I'm not sure about the cool-thing; I guess I'm getting too old for it. But I do try to just be who I am.

Thanks again. Glad to be here.

[ghostsofgiants]

76. Haha...

Well all I mean by cool is you must be a good person. :hi:

[Call Me Wesley]

77. Thanks. I do try. ;) (nt)
