Forum Rules

From the main EMD page, when I click on the forum rules link, I get:

Quote:
Invalid Announcement specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator
Clicking on the word administrator, and nothing happens.

On Windows 10 Pro, Chrome and Edge.

Anyone else experiencing this?

From what I know of vBulletin, it is possible for a forum administrator to post news or similar as an announcement, and it's possible to specify a start and end date for the announcement to be visible.

If you now look at the forum rules, it shows:

Quote:
Announcements in Forum : Early Warning...
23 Nov 2004 until 1 Jan 2050

Yup you can specify how long each announcement is visible for which is very handy.....

Im glad he got it re-dated so quickly after this thread was started

See Guys Edwin cares about his site very much. He is just very busy these days but it doesnt mean he isnt looking out for us...

Thank you Edwin
