This is to notify the members of Talk Budgies that there are currently multiple problems with the forum due to recent updates.
You may have noticed threads are not being approved promptly, closed as quickly as normal or moved to the appropriate sub-forums as regularly as they generally are.
Until our technical team is able to sort out the problems, the regular Talk Budgies volunteer administrator and staff are unable to perform many of our usual functions.
Please bear with us during this period.
We are in constant contact with the technical team and are hoping it won't be many more days until all the glitches have been repaired.
Private Messages ARE working.
One simply has to go into the menu on the left side of the page and click on "Send New Message".
You will have to ensure you spell the User ID of the person to whom you are sending the message correctly.
The forum does not pop-up the member's name the way it used to.
Additionally, you will notice individual profile pages do not look the way they used to.
The option to chose "Send Private Message" directly from an individual's profile is no longer available at this time.
