Re: NOTE: (Now Renamed News and Announcements)

I'm now going to un-stickyness thisness.

And . . . The Swamp is now what it always should have been, functionwise. As I said from the start, rebuild and then hand it off. That then is now.

Trust your Mods. They're good guys; smart guys. Anything arises for you, consult them.

So you would delete BSF21, then change the name of testBSF21 back to BSF21? Yes. Disable, not "delete". Everything you posted will still be there. If you want, give me a go-ahead and then log OUT of everything. I'll post an "it's fixed" message immediately upon making the changes.

If you have any problems, any at all, send me a PM and I'll fix it. Or, if you can't log in for any reason, you can get me by email at sportsfrog.scottie (at) gmail dot com.

And I believe we follow each other on Twitter as well. So there's that as back-up, too.
