Thanks Tessa for the reply. I guess I picked an inopportune time for a post like this but the suggestion and request I believe are still valid. Maybe another suggestion would be for "an automatic out of office" reply to a PM if any of the administration is gone and we try to contact them. I don't know when Rabbit was struck but I believe it was after I PMed him. Either that or someone else turned off the option that allowed us to send PMs to him. That is why I sent the second one to cariad again.
I have no idea how sophisticated the software used at this site is but I have to believe it is rather extensive since it seems to allow the forced changing of passwords on a timed basis. Hopefully it is capable of eliminating the Fun and Games forum from the New Posts search but if not then we will survive. Again, it is only a suggestion.
