Strange.

May be just a techno glitch, in which case, all's well, but also may be a hacker who has somehow got access to FT Admin password and has a grudge of some kind against Randy or others. It shows on all posts Randy has made AFAIK.

Some very strange and toxic stuff has been planned before on weekends as most of us know too well.

Tried to post on ORP about this, but get a very strange Admin message I've never seen before talking about posting polls, and posts needed to go to a Moderator? HOWEVER, replies to threads there are possible in ORP as I just made one. Even stranger.

Anyone one seen any other well known members today with "Suspended" under their handles, that may point to someone with a grudge etc hacking the system?

No hack involved.

And the message in ORP is legit, I am sure Randy will explain when he is back next week.

My guess would be that the "Suspended" is just a joke .

I noticed the "Suspended" under Randy's name as well, and sent an e-mail to flyertalk about it. (Probably won't get a response until next week if at all.)

No doubt it IS a joke of some sort, but is Randy in on the joke?

Hmmm... maybe he suspended himself so that he won't receive any PMs?

Maybe he is on his honeymoon and has been suspended by his wife?

He' not getting married until May, can still received PMs and there is no message in ORP.

Maybe "they" are experimenting with the software, need to suspend someone to test certin resulsts, and picked Randy so no suspicion of improper activity would attach.

Sounds like a topic for technical issues more than Community.

But I am very suspicious

.....and since the question has been explored from a number of points and answered, I'll close this now, with a reminder that discussion of particular members' conduct is inappropriate per the FT TOS. Ocn Vw 1K, Moderator.
