  1. Ollie bought a Shuker bass from me in a quick, pleasant and hassle free sale - Cheers!
  2. If anyone is on a dynamic IP address you might find yourself issued with a blacklist IP address for a couple of minutes, and then a good one and everything's ok again!
  3. [quote name='Twigman' timestamp='1337593612' post='1662322'] Err I am on my company's network. We are on a fixed IP address. [/quote] Even company networks can be compromised, the last blacklist report on your IP address was 27 days ago. As long as whatever caused it has been dealt with, your IP address should be dropped off the 'alert' list soon.
  4. [quote name='Twigman' timestamp='1337588521' post='1662221'] Every few clicks I see a screen which asks me to type in some letters/numbers, you know the verify you are human type screens. According to Sophos my machine is clean. I can't even post a screenshot as an attachemnt. And linking to an image hosted elsewhere tells me that this community does not allow jpg please make it stop It is making this site a total PITA to use. [/quote] The IP address you are using is on a spam black list. The proxy host we now use will automatically challenge blacklisted IP addresses to make sure it's not being used by a bot. In a way the proxy is learning as it goes. I suggest you unplug your modem for 30+ minutes to see if you can acquire a different IP address.
  5. I've just checked the boiler room - it's all fine here. I suspect it's our new proxy.
  6. No love for Zebra Voodoo with black hardware?
  7. We could just add a line of notifying text in the joining T&C about joining the site is giving explicit permission for the website to store cookies etc

    We're back...

    [quote name='whizzzy' timestamp='1337343671' post='1658479'] A massive thank you to the Admin guys here on BC. Well done chaps! [/quote] I got back from the pub and found the forum busted, so I just thrashed my PC with a small bush. But thanks anyway!!
  9. There also seems to be a problem in viewing photos in for sale threads which were uploaded as attachments. I can see them on the Admin permissions but I think they are blocked to member permissions?
  10. [quote name='Clarky' timestamp='1337341714' post='1658431'] FYI Hamster when I click on attachment this comes up (I assume its part of the problem BC had yesterday - however you might want to try re-posting pics?): [b] An Error Occurred[/b] [color=#7f7f7f]Sorry, an error occurred. If you are unsure on how to use a feature, or don't know why you got this error message, try looking through the help files for more information.[/color] [color=#80001c][size=3][#10171] You do not have permission to view this attachment.[/size][/color] [/quote] Cheers Clarky - I expect it's as a result of the exploit fix that Invision has done regarding picture uploads. I'll put my Admin hat on later and have a poke around in the Basschat engine room to see if a sprockets come off somewhere - otherwise we may have to go to hosting photos on other websites like photobucket etc.
  11. Plenty of interest but no firm offer yet - Still available
  12. [quote name='TRBboy' timestamp='1337078598' post='1654917'] Hi Colin, did you get the last pm I sent you the other day? [/quote] I have now - just been a bit busy - sorry

  14. [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]The neck is 47mm wide at the nut, string spacing is 19mm at the bridge, neck depth at the 1st through 12th frets is approx 23mm. It's quite a flat profile - I've no idea of the radius as I don't have a tool to measure it. I'd call the neck a flat C shape.[/font][/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]The pickups as far as I know are passive and[color=#000000] hum-cancelling with duel in-line coils.[/color][/font][/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][color=#000000]The weight acording to my batroom scales is 9lbs.[/color][/font][/font][/color]
  15. [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]I've seen something I quite fancy so I have this hand-made Shuker J Custom 5 up for sale - [/font][/color][url="http://www.shukerguitars.co.uk/jcust.htm"]http://www.shukergui...co.uk/jcust.htm[/url] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]It's been recently serviced by Jon Shuker, I've just put on a brand new set of Ken Smith nickel strings on it (which are pretty damn nice actually).

  16. Hi What's the string spacing on this one please, and whereabouts are you if I wanted to come and have a look at it? Cheers
  17. [quote name='AntWPF' timestamp='1336582602' post='1647958'] Just realised this is the wrong place for this thread, sorry I have no idea how to move it! [/quote] Through the mighty power of Mjölnir - this is now where it should be.

  19. Please place your post in the correct sub-forum of this forum please! Ta
  20. Guys - if you want to talk about the merits/re-sale value of Ricks - Take it to Bass Discussion. This is a For Sale thread. Cheers
  21. The OP hasn't been on the forum since last November, so I think enquiries would be best addressed through e-mail folks.
