WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO THESE FORUMS

Topics

El Loro

In the last few hours something has happened to these forum. The Community Management forum have vanished. The New Tips and Tricks forum still is shown in for instance The Lounge, but clicking on it says that it has closed. The order of the main forum on the front page has changed so that the Games forum is now shown before The Lounge.

Does anybody know what has happened or is it just a temporary problem?

I wouldn't worry. Lots of unannounced updates happen here - part of the err "fun".

Somethings can get past me, in particular cricket balls - I made a useless fielder whan I was at school. Lori will wonder what I'm talking about as cricket isn't very high on the list of sports in the States - she probably thinks I'm talking about crickets as in grasshoppers.

Just to show that I am parrot-eyed (rather than eagle-eyed) here's a clue as to what has happened to these forum http://talk.gagajoyjoy.com/dis.../146663570619983977/

I'm familiar with cricket, El Loro.

I do like the mental image of a parrot attempting to field a cricket ball--seems like you'd do better with grasshoppers.

Question of the day. What is the correct plural of forum? It could be forum, forums, fora or something else.

I think we use forums....but I've seen fora. Sounds like flora (as in flora and fauna) to me.

Answering my own question, The Concise Oxford Dictionary indicates that in the context used here, the plural is forums, but when used in the original Latin usage to signify a court the plural is then fora.

Reference:

Lori
*tries to imagine Gaga as a court*

Maybe in the context here, Gaga could need to be changed to Gagums

Oh! I love it! Instead of referring to you all as "the Gagas", I shall start calling you "The Gagums".

Still showing that way for me.

Apparently, Gagums are Korean practice swords.

Don't know how the heck THAT happened, since I didn't even MESS with that part. Anyhoo, it's fixed.
