        I knew the minute I saw him that sleazy-looking mascot would be nothing but trouble.

        Throw the bum out!

          If this was the old west, I'd say get a rope and string up the mascot...thanks god it wasn't only me! I had pm's and emails from certain fellow members who professed the same problems of logging in too! Realizer is right! The original Netscape never should've been tinkered or messed with. "If the toy ain't broke, don't fix it." The groups that are used here seems too "cliqueish" for my taste, and members here DO have the right to know who's out there posing and negging their comments, and don't take me to the recent addition of public messages in your profile...cause you don't wanna hear it from me how I feel about that too!

          Bloody mascot.

          Let me guess; Propeller's coder discovered that the model for the mascot had been doing porn in the 70s and was so disgusted he/she brought the site down for awhile to try to cleanse Propeller of Hitler Jr.

            I knew he was an evil little guy!

            But most of all Tom, we all really appreciate being let in on what's going on. It makes us feel visible.

              Mr. Spinhead needs to take a long walk off a short peer.

              Well Tom, "We are still diagnosing..."

              Time to consider a transplant, huh? Maybe a brainectomy.

              Tom

              Kidding aside; I must admit that I am impressed with your humility and forthrightness. Thanks for posting this. At least we all know that you guys are concerned and actively seeking solutions... or scapegoats.

              Of course it is the propeller mascot. He wants more screen time. LOL

              ...when first I saw the title my semi-conscious mind superimposed an 'R' so it read "Propeller.com outRages" and I thought 'He's just now noticing???Gads, he must be REALLY busy..."
              Patience,folks...we will get it ironed out...prob seems to be the package was a bit rushed to get it out here...WE have to accept a bit of the blame for demanding the new Propeller right the "F" NOW!!! so incessently...just keep sending Tom any probs we keep finding, and hang on 'til the ride smooths out...
