Ladies and Gentlemen,

We have advanced very well with DEVELOPMENT of our final Blog.

Still a number of things to sort out, but we are here on the NEW BLOG.

The transfer of USERS to the new location was a bit troublesome, but most of the AUTHORS have been successfully transferred.

It was not so easy to transfer NORMAL SUBSCRIBERS, so most of you will have to do a quick REGISTRATION there, with the same Username and Password.

Our NEW REGISTRATION PROCESS is much more secure and asks a couple more questions… and what’s more, it allows for BANNING / SUSPENSION in case of bad behaviour, so we can easily keep the Trollers away.

New Registration requires VERIFICATION from our side before one is able to comment, simply because it is part and parcel of the screening process to keep trolls out. Between grootblousmile, Ed_The_Lion, Koos & SuperBul we will have a centralised E-MAIL ADDRESS referring all the VERIFICATIONS to us by end of business on Thursday 13 August 2009, making VERIFICATION very quick and efficient.

Not only can we ban E-Mail Addresses but we can ban IP addresses as well and re-direct those we really do not want here to other web addresses, so that they cannot even read our SITE from that IP ADDRESS.

To follow still in development, includes our TERMS AND CONDITIONS, CONTACT PARTICULARS, ABOUT US, ADVERTISEMENT SPACE & CONTENT, AUDIO & VIDEO CLIPS, PHOTO GALLERY…

The REPLY Button is already there, but needs a little tweak to include the COMMENT NUMBER… hang in there for us in this regard.

The SIDE WIDGETS, LOGS and LINKS still needs refining, however it was impossible to implement without migrating the FULL CONTENTS of the BLOG first.

We will also send a MAIL to all current subscribers, with exactly the same content as appears in this Post.

Kindly do not expect everything to run seemless during further development, but we should be up and running 99.9% of the time.

Now I need a good, solid sleep…….

We wish you a speedy and uncomplicated transition to the NEW SITE.

Regards,

GBS
