Message Board Temporarily Limited
Certain parts of the NACHI message board have been temporarily disabled to allow for a major systems upgrade The new NACHI message board will be bigger, brighter, faster and have more features. We are currently determining how long this process will take, and will post an estimate by Monday, November 21st, 2005. We are very sorry for the inconvenience.
Is there any word on when all features will be restored?
By the way I had to post this in electrical as I do not have 'special access' to General discussion

Sorry but only users granted special access can post topics in this forum
Gimme a break.... 
I participate in at least 3 electrical forums and they welcome all members, if a certain member is a trouble maker that one person is removed.
How about this give everyone "special access" and then if they abuse it the access is removed?
NACHIs forum used to be a great free and open forum....now. well it ain't the same by a long shot. The changes have not been for the better.
Post deleted that have pertinent information like the UL white book, oh that makes sense.

You post what you want when you want then when others disagree you tell them to call or meet in person.
I have no interest in meeting you or talking to you on the phone.
You showed your true colors and it was not flattering.
You have killed any credibility you might have enjoyed by your own STUPID actions.
Bob:
I had hoped that you would, then we could have talked like electricians or like a dad to a son.
I just turned 65 and talked to my son who is your age.
Oh, you forgot, who gave you the UL White Book files, offered you a job as an instructor with NTT.
You said you could not do it, I guess because of the Kids, right?
For you I would lay out a carpet so you could present the program to the students, anywhere, anyplace, anytime. This goes for anyone who wants to take the challenge!
I thought of you yesterday. I found a place in Charlestown to run my new 6 hour Home Inspector electrical classes beginning in the New Year, asking you to give a run down about electricians and their part in the installation of electrical systems in dwellings.
I will keep that door open!

Read the post :

If Bob leaves........You just might see ALL the Electricians leave ( Member or No-Member )
Where in that statement did I say BOB was leaving.....I said IF.....and You MIGHT.....see thats why I do not like boards.....heck with it...you all can do all the posting.
Firstly the statement was in response to the feelings bob had about the direction and being blocked out...and my opinion is if he left BECAUSE of being blocked out because he is not a member then other NON-member electricians may leave as well...
Yep...Nachi will live on......The point was I hate to see someone "like" bob ran off because of some board changes or even giving leaving a thought.....
Trust me Bob...I am no cheer leader.....
Trust me....I waive no flags for anyone....I am loyal to myself and my family and that is about where I stop just giving an opinion again to the comments and in a way agreeing with your statements.
Sure NACHI will go on....and I hope it does. I did not say you were leaving but I know that when someone gets upset at a certain issue ( as I mod other places also ) they tend to move on....
But it seems anything that is posted is being taken the wrong way these days anyway..
I did not MISS understand the post. My point is that a NON-MEMBER can express his opinion. If they would like to change things they should join nachi and change it from the inside. Nobody is being ran-off.
I also said IF BOB leaves (read the post)
If you think Bob is a great asset to the board, you should ask Nick to give him a free membership. It has been done before. Apperantly Bob handled my statement better than yourself.
Yes, I do think he is a great asset. And, a non-member.
Yes, the board has changed, and not for the better.
