There's a random glitch in the forum software where you make a thread (or edit the OP) and the faction software tags it as belonging to a group you're in. This means people not in that group cannot read it, even if it's actually posted in a public forum.
This glitch has been around since launch but it's affected me once, Pony once.... and JC about a dozen times. He's fucking cursed or something.
I now have the software patch to fix it but it'll take me a few hours, so it's a weekend job. JC just don't fucking touch anything until then!
This thread can serve as the temp thread until I patch the forum and restore access to the one JC drooled over
PS: I'll do that TS3 server update you mention sometime. Last time I tried it the damn thing corrupted and I had to revert.
