RailSimulator.com is very proud to present our new and improved official blog, Engine Driver. Our new blog is your gateway to the largest train and railway enthusiast community on the web and the home of all the latest news, features and articles for Railworks 3: Train Simulator 2012. . . . . . . . . . . . Each day of the week Engine Driver will feature a rich and exciting selection of contents based around a set theme. . . . . . .

Well, I am realy looking forward to that

Note: EACH DAY means 5 times a week.

Looks like the new Blog may be trying to distance themselves from the community, unless you're on Facebook or Twitter. I see they didn't include a Community link like they did at http://www.railsimulator.com/community.php
Of course, right now you can still access the Community page at they're main site.

At least I tried

At least I tried

It's no problem at all posting that. I wasn't trying to undermine your post or their new site.
I was just making an observation.

I thought my post would have surfaced by now . . . . I meant I posted a message in the blog requesting the info from http://www.railsimulator.com/community.php to be added to the blog Social Hub page.

Lets hope the Blog Mod Girl ok's the message afterall

Ah! I thought you were referring to your post.

The omission of the Community page may have been intentional. I don't know.
RS.com may have decided to steer everyone to their Facebook and Twitter pages and away from the Community forums.

Since my post has not shown up yet I assume the Blog Babe deleted it.

Cardinal, maybe they do like Ed does here, your first couple of posts have to be "approved" before they show up. So maybe "Blog Babe" just hasn't had the time yet. Then you have to have two or more posts before you can just post instantly, or even receive or send PM's. Read that site's rules.

Personally, I didn't see anyplace to post anything on that site.

I noticed the other day on their FB page that to enter the current screenshot competition you had to like the page, and subsequently because they had a lot of entrants their page liked figure shot up from about 27,000 to over 35,000, which is the figure they've plucked out of the sky for their new marketing gimmick on this new Engine Driver blog, talk about inflating figures, about as sneaky as our Politicians, they think we haven't noticed, but, we have.....

Cheerz. ex-railwayman.

What browser are you using? I still don't see anything. I'm using Firefox and this is all I see (of course the top is cut off to make the image a little smaller).

I use Google Chrome, and tested the page with Internet Explorer too.

Ah! Must be one of the security add-ons I have installed in Firefox blocking that.

[Cardinal51]

Yep must be. Very smart though that your browser is blocking those dangerous comments of the RSC community
