    Innocent victims of the spam attack, I guess. Every one of my old posts has disappeared (not that it's any great loss).
    FB,

    There might be something else going on here.

    I recognize each of the authors listed above in this thread and would never delete posts by any of those members.

    When Aros added a filter to identify the TEEmOO spammers deleting or dismissing pages of posts was the SOP.

    ANY post or page of posts I deleted was also reviewed by me at the time before pressing the delete key.

    If Dismissing a post or series of posts also deletes that post(s) then I am not aware of that protocol.

    I cannot apologize for something I did not do, but I will take responsibility for "Dismissing" posts over the past 2 days rather than deleting those same posts.

    This was a total cluster from the beginning and it is my hope that 'the powers that be' can add a layer of Identification to the member sign up that helps eliminate further spamming on any level.

    Respectfully, Steve (LB)

    • Could it be a possibility that when the name "TXXU" or variation on that theme, appeared in anyone's post, that post got UNAPPROVED immediately and after a short time if that post was not looked at and approved, the post and the "member" got deleted? Something like that happened to me when all this was going on. I mentioned the name in a post and that post was unapproved, BUT in a very short time (within a couple hrs), someone recognized me and approved it even though the name of the offending company remained in my post.
      Did any of the members who lost all their posts and post count or got "banned" and had to be re-instated or re-registered, have the name of the company in a post during those times?

        IIRC I put the offending name but with "*" instead of the "e" in a post in a thread about the moderators' response to the spamming. Almost immediately I was "banned permanently". After resurrection my posts were reset to zero. No big loss.

        • I don’t recall ever mentioning ‘that company’, since I don’t do business with them or care about them.

          I hope I didn’t say anything inappropriate in my posts.

          • Lost my 1st Vulcan in San Diego Mission Bay due to Tx/Rx signal failure. Such a fun model, had to get another. Upgraded the battery tray on this one to place the satellite Rx aft of the battery.

            Printed tray adds height for electronics below, length to support aft placement of battery and most importantly better battery strap placement. A little extra width makes a huge difference when securing the battery.

            The print file is available here.

            Also did a remix nozzle which I find to be whisper quite and to look awesome printed in Burnt Titanium ASA filament.

            • A friend with a Vulcan wanted a nozzle to finish off it's rear end but wanted something F-15 style, so I came up with one and added it to my nozzle collection. It's #10 in the list.

              Nozzles for the Freewing 70mm Vulcan sport jet.Set printing parameters as needed for weight distribution.Nozzles designated "b" are 1mm larger in diameter to better fit some fuselages.
