So, would you be as kind as to elaborate what has happended as to the disappereance of post for the last week?

Did the forum go down and you lost the posts, or have someone been active on the 'delete'-button?

it might not have disappeared... for some asinine reason whenever some "likes" or "dislikes" a post, the whole thread gets bumped to the top of the forum. Check the older pages to see if it's still there.

It looks like Road King deleted a lot of his posts. Of course doing that bumps the thread just like liking or editing the op makes a bump.

Oh, and deleting a post that has replies in it will delete all it's responses. It's fucking stupid.

Skoggy

Well, I guess that might be it. If what you're saying is correct, then it means that if you reply to a post, then delete the reply, you will also delete the the first post(as I remember Aurora Flowers posted, which RK replied to, unless AF also decided to delete his post).

Looks like a bad time to post a link to my latest video......

Why is omess banned?

We're going to be much more firmly adhering to the Terms of Use of the ESP site. Any site member who continually acts in violation of those terms won't be welcome anymore. We've just had too many reports from people who feel they can't participate on the forum and other site functions due to the toxic environment that gets promoted by a few people. We're done with accommodating the bad behavior of those few at the cost of the majority of cool people here. You'll shortly be seeing a simplified code of conduct posted here, and we appreciate all who follow it.

I see the code has already been posted.  Thanks.  I wish there was some sort of "pin" feature that would allow it to kinda stay at the top, so when a new member comes in they can see it.  The worst thing to happen would be someone comes in and says something right on the line and gets banned and then they complain they never saw it.  If it's pinned up there you can't have any excuses.

nice post allen harris

 

i dont understand this intmidation angle.....the forum will go for days without ANYONE posting

 

not because of bullying, but because it is lame

I've been lurking since 2008 and have only recently started posting this year. While I must agree that people won't make use of this forum anymore because of the new website, I've seen how the long established forum members "welcome" new members. Its not the typical "hey welcome to the website enjoy your stay!" crap, its just something that new members don't come to expect right off the bat. I've lurked long enough so I know how most members who post in the "General Discussion" forum behave. Its not necessarily bad behaviour on my terms but I must say unless they're the same, its something new members wouldn't want to take part in.

 

tl;dr- Its not a very welcoming community and with the new website being lame as it is, its even less.

 

Several things about this forum are in dire need of fixing if ESP really does want to have a strong community. Number of members doesn't mean a thing when they're just registering to be entered in some sweepstakes. That's not real support. I'm sorry, ESP.

are they going to do any more of the Will Adler Warbirds in other colors with the skate deck?

Dave R.

Yes, there is another version in the works.

noa p.

can we please bring back a "Flying V" bodystyle with a Floyd Rose on it? i love ESP/LTD, but; if they cannot provide for me the style i need, i will have to leave, atleast until i obtain the money for a custom shop ESP... i hate to do it, but; we have all too make some sacrifices.

Dave R.

FYI, the 2,000 point requirement to become 'approved' to post links/photos is no longer in place.

When I click on page 4 (last page, currently) of this thread from the main page, it only shows the op and the reply box.  There are no links to navigate to another page either.  Happened on another thread as well.

 

glad you finally implemented a number of changes in the past week.  I guess we'll see if it's too little too late.  I was almost ready to throw in the towel here but I'll stick around a while longer to see what happens.

Dave R.

I think it's a glitch from some posts having been removed. I imagine it will catch up to page 4 eventually. I've noticed the issue as well.

We realize things need to be addressed and are taking action as we can. Hopefully it won't be too little too late, and we can get back to the level of activity we were seeing all those years.
