PW nomads?

Well, I joined here, I think it would be great if the same kind of vibe that’s at PW could be found here. Who else from PW is here?

ShiroKuro Tuner Welcome to the both of you!

Tuner I hope you can edit your posts here for an unlimited time.

The setting was previously that you could edit your post until the next reply. I just made it "Indefinitely". I will see if I can restrict that to Gold Members (of which you are now one) instead of having it be a global setting. 🙂

Tuner Is there a free classifieds section here?

Not yet! I will be happy to create one though once we get some traction. 🙂

Yo.

I signed up too 🙂 I don´t post a lot on PW, but think this is a nice initiative.

I will be disappointed if PW fails! I don't see the obnoxious ads but I have noticed less traffic there. Thanks for setting this up navindra in case we need this new home!

navindra

rogerch I share the feeling, honestly. Nice to have you here as well!

I hope PW admins are keeping an eye on traffic and willing to reconsider the degree of ad intrusiveness, as I too would be sad to see that forum die.

Thanks @navindra for setting this up. I'll be curious to see what kind of feel this forum takes on. Hopefully the tone and content remain similar to PW. After visiting PianoClack a few times, I can understand why it would be a turnoff for some.

I'd like to see this as well. I'm happy to take any feedback to help with that. 🙂

twocats It's blazingly fast (though it could slow down if it gets really popular),

Yes, indeed. Right now P|T is on managed hosting courtesy of FreeFlarum. FreeFlarum does occasionally have issues and if the forum grows, I will definitely have to move it.

Welcome all!

Hi! I see lots of spam filters implemented. I hope it works well for keeping the spammers out!

ShiroKuro

I'm enjoying this forum so far, but it does need more members!

twocats

ShiroKuro definitely! I am appreciating a modern forum. It's blazingly fast (though it could slow down if it gets really popular), you can upload photos easily, and quoting is a breeze (highlight and click "quote", if you're on mobile highlight by holding your finger on the text for a few seconds).

The only issue I have with this forum (so far) is that it somehow loses or corrupts my password.

Every time I try to log in (and I mean every single time) it tells me that my password is incorrect and I have go through the "reset your password" routine to log in again.

Is anyone else seeing this, or is it just that this forum software hates me? 🙂

Oh wow, that's a problem!

Do you happen to use a password manager or something? Is it possible that the password manager is not updating the password and using the old one instead?

FrankCox The only issue I have with this forum (so far) is that it somehow loses or corrupts my password.

This has been noticed both on pianoclack and pianotell. If I'm using my mobile/cell-phone, I encounter the occasional red coloured banner thing that says something along the lines of can't carry out function, or wrong password. But a web-page 'refresh' would sort it. That is - for me, after a page refresh, and then login again using the usual username and password would sort it. It may well be a flarum or cookies thing that they haven't yet sorted out.

ShiroKuro

Weird, I haven't experienced that. And I'm using P | T on... three different devices I think.

FrankCox

Yeah, it probably just hates me. 🙂
