First off if a moderator wishes to change the thread title from a little word help. Go for it.

Second off I am asking for some help in finding some words that pertains to being "kicked out of something", like disowned. Or shunned. I had a word in mind but I can't think of it at the time. So let's discuss those words and the meanings.
 
That's a good one thanks for posting spidergoat.

Sorry, but it's not the moderators who have to fix this. It's the technicians who are responsible for our software. I too thought it was fixed, but apparently not. They switched to a different software engine and it has better features, but the reliability is not so good.

Thanks for your patience.
