Hi,

Rick had been inactive on FlyNET and had his account deleted by FlyNET.

Rick can open a new account and rejoin the VA whenever he wishes.

That's because he spends so much time working on creations for our pleasure he doesn't get time to fly :huf:

Life just ain't fair :sad:

Garry, all one has to do is log onto the system every 60 or so days and he'll be safe. He doesn't actually have to fly a flight, just log in, spend a few minutes checking everything (to show that you're actually paying attention to be safe) and they'll not get deleted. Konny's been talked with by the DB Admins about the script and we've run a couple of tests and we're pretty confident that it's working properly. Just make sure you've got a valid e-mail address on your profile and you'll be reminded if you forget to log in.

Hi Guys

It's just not worth joining again if in 90 days i get booted again.

I love flying the VA but don't have the time to do it properly & if i can't do it properly without being booted every 90 days i won't do it at all.

It was nothing sinister and i remapped my sig for a giggle.

Regards
Rick :worried:

Rick..

If you joined again NOW and your FlyNET email address is VALID (eg.. the one you've given them) then it shouldn't happen again :wink:

I'm not sure how many times this has to be said but YOU DO NOT HAVE TO FLY EVERY 60-90 DAYS.. JUST LOGIN. How long does that take?? Probably close to 10-15seconds. Not too much of a hardship every 90-days :smile:
