Yes, thanks Randy and apologies for those "wanna-be experts" who caused the problem, the down time, and expense and loss of time to you and staff.

FT has been down for me (and clearly others) for most of the past 12 hours or so, so the problem seems still to exist?

I have no knowledge whatever of UBB intricacies, but always wonder whether posting 1000s of replies to already corrupt threads in OMNI (which orginally had a corrupted thread heading IIRC something like "9.17am", but someone has changed it to the current "normal" looking title) simply so folks can boost their post count does not de-stabilise the UBB platform?

If the (once legitimate) thread is corrupted anyway, keeping it active daily for many months (7 months in this example) I imagine cannot be helpful to the stability of the rest of the Bulletin Board?
