Anyone else lose their star?
Are we in trouble or something? Do we need to go see the principal to get our stars back?

6. Um I signed up for monthly donations 6 months ago
Has the length of a year changed? Why don't I ever find out about these things?? :)

10. Go to Tools on your toolbar
Edited on Sun Jul-23-06 06:32 AM by hraka
and then Internet Options (if you don't have IE, it might be different, I don't know). Choose Delete Cookies and, while you're at it, delete your Temporary Files, including All Offline Content.

But I logged out then back in, then delted cookies and logged out/in and my star isn't there. If it isn't back tomorrow, contact the administrators.

edit: go to Help (top of website) then Contact Administrators.

17. Hi Charlie,
I just did this and I still don't have my star.

What's weird is I can go to my groups (many of which you need the star), and read them, but can't reply to them. Strange.

I hope it gets cleared up soon.

22. That *is* odd
Just seeing the groups, let alone posting, shouldn't happen, if I remember right. Sorry it didn't work, sometimes it does.

4. Always trust your car to the man who wears the star
I've lost mine but right now I just can't afford to donate. Hopefully I'll be able to scrape some money together to donate next drive.

11. from the help menu
Where did my star go?

Donor stars last for one full year after the date of your donation. If your star disappeared, it is probably because it has been more than a year since your last donation.

Sometimes our records do not accurately reflect the date of your most recent donation. If you believe your donor star was taken away prematurely, please let us know so we can fix the problem.

14. It will be okay
I'm sure the problem will be fixed. I imagine Skinner and EarlG are a sleepin right now. Probably just a glitch.

16. I just emailed the Admin and
will pass on any suggestions they have. Chances are, though, you'll just need to email them.

18. I don't think it's a cookie problem
My star is lost on multiple computers, and multiple browsers. I donate monthly by automatic withdrawel and my bank shows a July payment.

24. Everybody's a dreamer and everybody's a star,
And everybody's in movies, it doesn't matter who you are.
There are stars in every city,
In every house and on every street,
And if you walk down Hollywood Boulevard
Their names are written in concrete!

Don't step on Greta Garbo as you walk down the Boulevard,
She looks so weak and fragile that's why she tried to be so hard
But they turned her into a princess
And they sat her on a throne,
But she turned her back on stardom,
Because she wanted to be alone.

You can see all the stars as you walk down Hollywood Boulevard,
Some that you recognise, some that you've hardly even heard of,
People who worked and suffered and struggled for fame,
Some who succeeded and some who suffered in vain.
Rudolph Valentino, looks very much alive,
And he looks up ladies' dresses as they sadly pass him by.
Avoid stepping on Bela Lugosi
'Cos he's liable to turn and bite,
But stand close by Bette Davis
Because hers was such a lonely life.
If you covered him with garbage,
George Sanders would still have style,
And if you stamped on Mickey Rooney
He would still turn round and smile,
But please don't tread on dearest Marilyn
'Cos she's not very tough,
She should have been made of iron or steel,
But she was only made of flesh and blood.

You can see all the stars as you walk down Hollywood Boulevard,
Some that you recognise, some that you've hardly even heard of.
People who worked and suffered and struggled for fame,
Some who succeeded and some who suffered in vain.

Everybody's a dreamer and everybody's a star
And everybody's in show biz, it doesn't matter who you are.

And those who are successful,
Be always on your guard,
Success walks hand in hand with failure
Along Hollywood Boulevard.

I wish my life was a non-stop Hollywood movie show,
A fantasy world of celluloid villains and heroes,
Because celluloid heroes never feel any pain
And celluloid heroes never really die.

You can see all the stars as you walk along Hollywood Boulevard,
Some that you recognise, some that you've hardly even heard of,
People who worked and suffered and struggled for fame,
Some who succeeded and some who suffered in vain.

Oh celluloid heroes never feel any pain
Oh celluloid heroes never really die.

I wish my life was a non-stop Hollywood movie show,
A fantasy world of celluloid villains and heroes,
Because celluloid heroes never feel any pain
And celluloid heroes never really die.

Ray Davies is the best
