Well now aint that a Texas sized report. I totally understand why there wasn't one for awhile ... you guys were making things look all fancy on us.

Thanks for the Report :)

BTW - you aren't the only ones that were affected by the red X men. It's been oh so lovely trying to get things back to speed here.

Thanks 420. Glad I'm good for something. :D

I accidentally posted the rough draft. It's been replaced with a more recent version above. Just a couple of minor things.

I LOVE HOW IT'S CALLED THE ARMADILLO
:lol:

OK, it's been done up larger and with a more readable font.

Omni, I was going to use that for myself, but you can go ahead and have it. :rofl:

I thought about borrowing from the UK Sun, and adding a Page 3 girl, but I didn't think you guys would go for it. :D

I think the IF Terms of Support forbids tabloid editting :cry:

Hey 420, we have not forgotten our Great Northern brethren! :cananim:

We were representing y'all as we were railing on Invisionfree last month! :o

I'm so ticked off with the lack of response from IF. It's nice to know that they truly care.

I'm still thinking of writing a letter to them to demand some kind of free upgrade as a token of apology for screwing us over.

Invisionfree is already free. Sometimes you get what you pay for.

As to the topic at hand, that is one of the slickest regional reports I've ever seen. Great work, Texans.

While we might not have paid for the service, by creating the forum, you agree to a T.O.S. with Invision.

In my world, that is a two way street. You agree to their rules and you get the service. Once you have agreed to the rules .... you should ... GET the service.

We didn't ask to be on Server 1 ... we didn't ask to be neglected and treated like second rate customers. This is really crappy customer service that has made me never want to sink any money into an IF product in the future ... I'll scope out some other server that actually cares about who it serves.

I'm not one to just shrug and carry on and say "meh, that's the way things go."

Save your coins people ... I want change.

I'm all for standing up and voicing my opinion ... I think we all know that by now.

Your sense of entitlement is endearing.

Perhaps further discussion of this issue would be best held elsewhere.

My apologies to our friends in Texas for diverting the topic.

I look forward to the next issue of The Armadillo.

To be simple, IF GOT TOLD!

Yay we've still got the biggest forum in NS B)

Now I'm very happy for no reason, I suggest nobody touch be lest hyperactivity is contagious

Blackshear, part of the Armadillo's purpose is to ENCOURAGE discussion of issues. It's no problem.

Mock my words Invisionfree, I will create an army of giant mutant Armadillos to take over your headquarters until server 1 is fixed! We WILL be free! Attic! Attic!

OMG the lone maple leaf state. :D

Silly rabbit, Trix are for grownups with cash! :D

I just saw you guys' NSWikipedia page, looks pretty good. I've been working pretty hard on updating Texas' section as well. Check out mine in particular. And if you've REALLY got time, check out Hotrodia's. You'll be glad you did!

Here's the link to the Texas Wikipedia

HotRodia is vast ... wow.
