    Yeah... DPRTV desperately needs a new host!

    I don't understand why C&J need to be part of a website instead of going with their own channel 🤔🤔

    Dude, I think you're posting from a parallel universe, since I've noticed zero locked threads myself in this universe's DPRevived.

    Well, not as Alfn maybe but under another name for certain 🙂

    You already used David1961 here and was identified as Porky and now you are using Alfn as well after being identified as Porky. So atm you have two usernames running simultaneously.

    You'll be staying here 🤣

    Goodbye then Porky, I wish I could say nice knowing you, but...

    Or you found that all the people that you used to troll on DPReview have moved here, and I suspect that your life goes a little flat when you can't troll.

    Point 1 - what you've done is doxing - which is against the rules - not that in this instance I mind, but other people might.
    In answer to your question, I've locked one thread. No members banned.
    What really got you was when I changed your 'David1961' nick to 'Porky', since it was a very clear impersonation (also against the rules). Or that I failed to instantly ban you as 'Alfn' so that you could go and moan about it somewhere else.

    Is that an order?

    I sure will be. This is a much better place than DPR.

    I am absolutely staggered at how small, meaningless & utterly mind numbingly boring some peoples lives must be, to invest so much time and effort in attempting to wind faceless, nameless people up over the interwebz. Have you seriously got nothing better, interesting or fulfilling to do than try to troll others? Really? That simply does my head in.

    What error?

    Have you set the 'Post per page' drop down menu? If so, that doesn't work right as it sends you to a page number that doesn't exist in large threads (the internal math is off).

    I think it's a matter of taste. These quotes from the DPReview Shutdown Thread #5

    In the end there seem to be two communities that value different things, and the DPReview membership is maybe splitting along those lines. In relation to the last comment, I think what might be 'short lived' if DPReview continues are sites aiming to offer the same moderation and censorship experience - simply because people will go for the real thing.

    Had the same problem. I changed back the number of posts shown from 50 to 20 and now the problem is gone. Thanks !!

    Exactly. That is why I think DPRforum will soon disappear because their main selling point “we are the successor of DPR”, is irrelevant if the original they are trying to copy keeps running.

    Does Porky use different emails for each of his troll 🧌 accounts or does the system allows several accounts under just one email?

    I'm sure that Bob and others in the team are IT savvy so will be looking at IP addresses too.

    If they did they would know I have never used any of these IDs from my IP address.
    They are simply trying to deflect from the message by introducing a conspiracy theory - just like any totalitarian regime would do.
    Don't believe everything the Supreme Moderator tells you comrades.

    They are right, you know. If DPReview DOES stay open, PLEASE don't come back. And that goes for Bill Ferris, Great Bastard, Michael Fryd, et al. It is so nice without you.

    I suppose that a VPN would easily get around that.

    The initial amount of posts is 18 and that is what the site uses to calculate the number of pages. So if you set the number of posts to 20 you'll still have some errors.

    I'd think that the function should be disabled until it's fixed.
