ifyouplease

ukadmin
I've sent out a newsletter regarding the challenge AND tweeting good

ifyouplease

ifyouplease

ifyouplease

ifyouplease

ifyouplease
tomorrow will have its official thread.

ifyouplease
the new word

ifyouplease
but I think I can announce it now...

ifyouplease
Lumbersexual. a man whose style of dress and appearance is reminiscent of the ruggedly masculine stereotype of the lumberjack, as in wearing plaid shirts and having a beard.

ifyouplease
both sexes can write about this word in any way they want. do you like it do you dislike it

ifyouplease
new topic posted. deadline 15th of June. word: Lumbersexual

ifyouplease
The last word for the last challenge is ....MEDUSA

ifyouplease
deadline: 25th of June, Monday. tomorrow I will create a topic too. hope you like it and hope you join. thanks

ionicus

ionicus

ifyouplease
well I think it is.

ifyouplease
angel

ifyouplease
hi Nicky! nice to see you here online!

ukadmin
hello

ionicus
Waves...

ukadmin
trying to fix things! (30/09/18)

allets
Thanks for the restoration. Poems stored until the fix is done - Whew! C U later - Stella Crews

ukadmin
Yes, sorry about the loss of subs etc. hoping to keep things more updated and secure to avoid this kind of thing in the future.

ukadmin
had to reinstate 'are you a robot' security to login and register - soz!

ifyouplease
never had a problem with this particular security! well done

ukadmin
some folk get confused with the pictures that google asks to select.

ifyouplease
no pictures for me, just proving i am not a robot.

ifyouplease
i mean i just logged in without selecting any photos just confirmed i am not a robot.

Alfie_Shoyger
But you ARE a robot.

ukadmin
Yes, I'm not entirely sure how it works... it asked me to prove i'm human on last login.

ifyouplease
really? oh secret meaning of life at last i found you!

belcanto
Well I was ' silly

ictured' to death! Something like six to seven series of identifiers. rotfl

I know why though: I'm ultra ' silly

rotected' and won't permit cookies so sites never recognize who I am. Even my bank sends me a code evert time I want to access my account. I must paste that code into my log-in procedure to prove I'm not a robot or someone else masquarading as me. I don't mind at all and would rather have it that way.

belcanto
masquerading....that's MY bad spelling, not the robot's. sad

ukadmin
The cookies for this site are just login/out details so you can stay logged in when you go from page to page. If you delete your UKA cookies you simply get logged out.

belcanto
Site has 'friended' me! Only one box of stuff to ID last few times I logged in. angel

Gothicman
It won't befriend me! I've plucked together five cars, two level crossings, and three shop fronts, and suffered the indignity of being told to try to behave non-robotic, otherwise wait in the rain! crying

ukadmin
I had to find the streetlights before it let me in! freaked-out

Gothicman
Aha! Sussed it! While you're buggering about clicking on boxes, it's checking your user name against your IP-Address! So just loiter about for a few moments, and you're allowed in after "one box of stuff"! giggle

Gothicman
The further you are from Birmingham, the longer it takes!

ukadmin
Birmingham is, after all, the centre of the world. laugh

mitch
Captcha can be a double-edged sword sometimes silly

jay12
It's the centre of my world, cus that's my home! Good old Birmingham!

Shackleton
Well I'll goo round the Wrekin on me troicycle!

ukadmin

Bostin'

ukadmin
Apparently logged out users can't see the login or register link on the blue nav bar - so I've added a login box top right.

belcanto
Like the Books To Discover addition. can really help boost member profiles and their work. Much as I'd enjoyed the rotation of archived UKA pieces. Some absorbing reads I'd missed or forgotten. Thanks, Richard. good

ukadmin
Load more comments and submissions link in your profiles has been updated but the problem still persists. You can still only see the first 10 comments and/or submission in the users profile. trying to find a fix.

ukadmin
the problem is with the plugin not UKA site. The plugin creators are tryuing to find a fix.

Gothicman
This plug-in problem needs to be resolved. The sites a shop window without any stock! thinking

ifyouplease
so it is a plug-in not a widget are these two different things? excruciating

Gothicman
The link says: it is a javascript void(0), with no defined value the browser stays on the same page? The plot thickens.... arrogant

ionicus
It may be forbidding access to my account. Try substituting my I.D. with yours in the link.

ifyouplease
new challenge - Swep's not mine. i hope many will join. Emotion. deadline 26 Nov.

ifyouplease
(poetry)

jordancoburn
help on my work if anyone is free smile

jordancoburn
So much talent on this site, what a great community. I have uploaded some work of my own, not sure if it will be placed up, but I am enjoying, learning from all of the different styles of writers on here.

ifyouplease
welcome Jordan

ifyouplease
good

jordancoburn
Can't wait for my work to come online tomorrow, hopefully I get some okay feedback

jordancoburn
wooop my works online go-away

jordancoburn
struggle

dont seem to be getting any feed back even tho my work is being read. dose this mean its not enjoyable for the reader. just im trying to improve.

jordancoburn
i made changes to my work last night perfectinig all erros and still it has not updated? is there a time frame on how long the changes take to work

stormwolf
You got feedback and you deleted it excruciating

ionicus
The correct procedure is: click on 'edit post', do your corrections and then click on 'update'. The changes are instantenous. glasses-cool

jordancoburn
I have taken it off as for some reason the finished version was not updated to here. My error i guess. Im puting it back on for Friday with all changes. The feedback was noted Stormwolf and appreciated, I have taken it into consideration for Fridays piece thank you

slovitt
ALLETS, ALLETS, have read all of your Bethlehem St. poems. no comments allowed, sent a pm but who knows if that system is working.all of which is to say i like your poems. a lot.

jordancoburn
i would just like to thank everyone for the assistance i recived on my last piece of work. I took on board the advice and now have made changes. The story will be back online friday, hopefully looking alot better. Once again thank you good

ionicus
I noticed that some authors promote their own work to the front page to blow their own trumpet, I suppose. My belief is that it should be for readers who appreciate a particular piece to do that. eyeroll

ifyouplease
Yo

ifyouplease
cute

jordancoburn
Could anyone give advice on publishing<< pm me thanks

ifyouplease
is it possible the forums box front page just to be updated with the last post and not all recent posts?

zenbuddhist
