Hello from GNHQ

That's a good idea Fanny we need to select a date and hope they'll be over run with emails. Maybe you could start a thread for this.

Sorry Ullabirgitta, I misspelled your name.

Ullabrigitta I just wanted to say hello and welcome to GN.
I’m sure that you will enjoy it here.
The posters definitely make the site! We just tend to get in with it, with the occasional good hearted grumble!

Thanks Pittcity and BlueBelle for the information. It seems a bit odd as other sites and forums don’t have issues with posting profiles and photos but if that’s how things are here then we just have to accept it.

Hi all
Do you think perhaps we could try some sort of ‘Direct Action’ regarding Iam64, especially?
We could all email the management on one day, or something?
Please don’t hesitate to let me know if I’m being daft!

Yes *pittcity is correct when I joined you could put up a photo answer a few questions and add a profile if you wished Then it was removed some years back
We all knew this original post was just an exercise going absolutely no where but played along with ‘Hope in our hearts’ (I m singing that bit)

Public profiles were turned off some while ago Ullabirgitta because of privacy laws/issues or something like that.
No idea why that part of the site hasn't been removed or altered to explain the situation? Well I do have an idea. As you can see nothing technical gets done quickly, if ever, on Gransnet.

Also they treat us as though we are Ena Sharples and most of us are Helen Mirren

Brilliant!

I’m new to Gransnet and have tried to create a Public Profile using my iPhone to tell other members a bit more about myself but when I try to save it nothing happens. I haven’t seen that anyone else has a Public Profile. Is this function not working or am I doing something wrong? Grateful for any help.

Nothing ever changes, new keen moderator comes in, asks what we would like changed/updated etc, then nothing ever is implemented.

Still waiting for LilyGranset to come back and let us know if we can have a Feminism forum. She promised to chase it up "on Monday"....... but which monday is that?

Far North agreed, quite bad mannered really ignoring any and all requests.

Ask for views - box ticked.

Take action on views - oh, no box for that one.

So I month on has anything happened about ANY requests
It’s gone very quiet maybe

That's what I would have done at the start - registered as Iam65 or something, but I think Iam has tried that and it didn't work.

Surely it would only need a name change, even keeping it similar by adding a number or two so people would know who it is.

No idea. All I can think of is that they might want to set up another account in the same name, but that may be well wide of the mark.

How hard can that be anyway?

What’s ‘the replication’ that Lily says is the problem for Iam64?
Does anyone know what this means?

What on earth can be so difficult about getting Iam64 back posting on the forums again.

Come on GNHQ, this has gone on long enough and needs to be sorted ASAP.

I contacted HQ at the weekend about something trivial, and engaged with a nice person called Kim.
I mentioned that the Search Function doesn’t work for me, and indeed many others, and she was genuinely surprised.

How strange that I had put this out of my mind with no expectation of action from GNHQ.

Remember Iam64.

Yes, and whilst you're here, HQ, this is a reminder that Iam64 is still out in the wilderness.

As several weeks have passed I thought I would bring this to the top again in the vain hope that it might catch some ones attention?

??? three years later….. Oh what a sceptic I am
