Hi folks
A bit of an appeal here .
I am trying to register on the Cambam forum and all seems to go smoothly to the point where I am told to await the email to confirm .
The email never comes .
I have checked that I put the correct email address. Even re registered with different username and Email. Still nothing.
I cant see a way to contact Admin on that forum while my registration is not complete .

If anyone is already on that forum can you please report this to Admins . I am sure they dont want to miss out on genuine candidates

Thanks

I've logged in and had a look around the forum but there doesn't seem to be any news of problems. Are you still waiting?

Hi Kit
Thanks for your concern.
There was some stuff on the open part of the forum about the new site and initial problems with spammers.
Maybe I have been shut out by the countermeasures . Three days now with no response.
Do you have a contact email for their admins

The CamBam forum was recently upgraded and extra anti spam measures were put in place for new members.
I have also sent a message to the forum admin to look into this, it's not something that happens all the time so no need for concern other than the inconvenience.

I saw something to that effect Eddy Current.
Just wonder what to do to overcome the problem. :sorrow:

Incidentally I saw on there that you are one of the Marras, Being a Silloth man I barely qualify, so where is home to you? :beer:

Had a number of old friends worked at Skelton . One "Character" passed away recently at the age of 93 and he had just passed his driving test again.
Of course we live in gods own country but have to keep argung the point with those who live in Yorkshire.
Would be nice to know where others actually do live . We dont really have any real hobby groups that I am aware of in the area and it might be nice to make contact with others in the group.

I have to be careful, my father was pure bred Yorkshire, though he was actually born in Karachi because his mother happened to be there at the time.

I was at the Skelton station from 1985 - 88 so I might have known your 'character'.

Home is now a very remote little town in Western Australia which is known as 'a drinking town with a fishing problem'. As far as I'm aware the nearest CNC machine to mine is in Perth,1300Km away so my 'hobby group' is MYCNCUK.

Hi Wael
Sounds like you may be suffering from what are known as "Crop Circles " A few of us have been caught by them and a search will probably turn up some topics (worth a read)

In Mach, go to config / general config /
In Arc IJ mode you have the options of abs, or inc . Whichever is now selected, choose the other, then try loading your code again
