Dear Wim + fellow admins,

 

Kudos to all of you!!

 

FP folk around the world were in a "tumult" without their daily fpn fix a+ the the "sister" site PT got a lot of queries as to what's happened to fpn.

 

Pen and Net Gods to the work, industrious mods, admins and web specialists have made "alles in ordening" (spelling?) again.

 

PENtiful greetings from Dov + local fpn aficionados in this li'l corner of the eastern Med

Stupendous! I got tired of cleaning pens and shopping for more. Great to know FPN is in the hands of someone that is able to make necessary fixes.

I am grateful for FPN and you, Wim, along with all that FPN's administrators, moderators and members have done to make it possible. Thank you all so much for your love, time and energy in the pursuit of beauty in the art of fountain pens and the arts of writing and drawing in the use of them.

Lalique says it perfectly. Thank you!!! :notworthy1:

Like in '65, eh? :lol:

 

I dunno -- were there any tracking stats for the 3 day NYC power outage in the mid 1970s? Or the cascade fail of the Northeast grid a number of summers ago, that hit pretty much everyplace *except* Pittsburgh (the Powers that Be here said, "Ooh, some sort of problem up the line -- let's disconnect NOW!"); I was on vacation, camping about 40 miles north of Pgh, so we were only getting peripheral reports from a campmate who lives in Erie, which did get hit).

I vaguely remember the '65 incident (I was a little kid and we lived about 25 miles north of NYC at the time). And no, I *don't* have any younger siblings as a reminder.... :roflmho:

I missed you so much!

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison 

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

Thank you so much Wim!

Is it fair for an intelligent and family oriented mammal to be separated from his/her family and spend his/her life starved in a concrete jail?

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
