Posted in: I.T. Non-Techie help, information and tips
Advice from the Police: 'It is much easier to steal a mobile phone when it is in use or on display. When you are using your mobile phone in a public place try and be aware of your surroundings and anyone that is perhaps stood close to you. In order to help prevent theft of your mobile phone keep it in a secure place on your person or in your bag. You should keep your contract or mobile phone box with the IMEI/serial number on it, in a safe place as the police will need to see evidence that you owned the phone, in the event that it is stolen. The contract or box are the only means of evidence the police will accept. A recent bill or delivery note will not be sufficient. The IMEI/serial number on your phone is a number that is unique to your mobile phone. To find out what your IMEI number is type *#06# into your phone. You can also protectively mark your mobile phone.' -

I have been asked about hidden loops, these are called 'private' loops which are invisible to non-members. You cannot join these loops, you have to be invited. There are 'closed' loops, which are visible, but the contents are visible only to members, and you have to apply to join. These loops have many real members (not advertisers), so much of the activity on Scooploop is unseen by non-members. -

I am being asked what can be done about the racist and abusive posts. With the absence of @CliveF and Scooploop moderators, the only thing that can be done is when you are the originator of a post is to block those members to prevent them making use of your post. I am no longer in contact with a member(s) of Scooploop. One of the last things they were working on was the Politics loops whose owners were no longer around. One recently reappeared, but then disappeared again! I don't know how far they got before they (the staff) disappeared again. -

I am aware of the racist posts in Anything, and now disgusting comments are being made. This is all down to the absence of moderation by the moderator, who may no longer be with us. If you are in touch with @CliveF please inform him of what is happening. The future of Scooploop is uncertain at the moment, and this will not help. To those of you who think that your identity cannot be traced, you have no idea of the information that can be used to identify you. A VPN will not help you, there are other ways. This happened in the infamous Kahuti, and the culprit was traced. If Clive is no longer around, or fails to take action, then you can do your part by not engaging with these members and leave them to talk to themselves. -

As you know, the world is going digital, but for accurate time you need analogue sources. Digital radio does not have the right time, because the time signal you hear, is delayed by the digital process. You can see an example of this on TV when someone in the studio is speaking to an outside reporter etc. If you listen to the radio on Alexa, then the time delay is about 40 seconds. So, how do you get the right time? 1. A radio controlled clock 2. Time signals on an AM or FM VHF radio. 3. A smartphone. You can hear this time delay by tuning to the same radio station on a digital radio or on the TV, and an AM or FM radio at the same time. -

The owner of Scooploop is no longer contactable, and the promised updates did not appear. Many members have given up posting/commenting/reacting. Scooploop is now basically only about a dozen active members. Also many loops are no longer or little used, and a major problem on the site is a lack of moderation. It is a wonder that Scooploop is still going. You should not be surprised if Scooploop disappears. *Even if Scooploop's forum website disappears, that is not necessarily the end of Scooploop Ltd, as its registered business is 'Software development', not a social forum. -

Unless you have a backup power supply, or a satellite phone, then at the moment you would be unable to make a phone call*. This may change next year when you will be able to use an ordinary smartphone to make calls via satellite This is called D2D (Direct to device). *If you still have an analogue landline plugged into a BT socket, then you will still be able to make a phone call. -

I can see that various members are having problems with basic web/computer activities. Viewing YouTube videos should present no problems, and they can be viewed without adverts. Facebook links do not require you to be a member of Facebook to view them. Website links should not be the result of a search, they should be the address of what you want to show; you should always click the link and not the image. If you need help, you can make a post in this loop. -
