I wasn’t “scolding” you, I was agreeing with you! (about having to wait 120 seconds to post again) I was exasperated with the people that run this forum who aren’t answering our questions (like about the 3 reputations) and just expect us to blunder around until we eventually figure it out. ️️ (to you)
@NJR Thank you, I’m reassured and I’m right with you.
It's a bit long to get the answers even by the email they gave us. After MPL Communication does not only manage the forum and site of Mr. McCartney. If they do the same thing for all the artists they have... there is work to do.I don’t think MPL has any other artists except Paul. MPL owns the catalogs of many artists, but they don’t handle any other websites/forums. If anyone here knows any different, please let us know.

Hi there Maccaboard users; please be aware we are listening to your feedback. We’re still in the ‘Early Days’ so please be patient with teething issues; for example, we have removed the 3 “reputations” rule on posting limits and have implemented pagination in the forum for ease of navigation. We are researching how to implement other feedback requests and will update you once these have been actioned.
If you are having issues accessing your old accounts, please contact webmaster@paulmccartney.com. As mentioned by fellow users, we are actioning manual password resets, email changes or email verification as quickly as possible.
All the best, PaulMcCartney.com
Thank you!

@NJR In fact when I went to their website I saw a lot of artists' faces that I didn't know and I thought that they manage them all.
Sorry I was wrong. -

Sorry I was wrong.Those artists you see photos of here are all dead (except Paul of course!) and MPL owns their songs (their “catalog”) so anytime someone wants to play one of their songs anywhere - TV, movie or live - MPL gets a royalty check. They definitely have to ask permission to use any of Paul’s songs, and probably any others he owns too!

@njr Paul owns the biggest independent music publishing company in the world.

So you never log out and it never automatically logs you out like some websites do? Then why do they mention “expired session” in the error message? Weird!
-
@njr Nope...I don't log in or out.

I’ll try not logging out and see what happens later tonight.

@njr I guess it depends who and what you read.

It didn’t log me out and I was able to just continue where I left off. Just had to refresh the page and the new posts showed up.

Just have to add my two cents worth...I really dislike this new layout!!!
