    (FB 1553099340 Timestamp) SITE UPDATE: BUG ON PURCHASING COURSE FIXED Unfortunately we cannot mix the Store and Course workflows for some reason that is beyond my comprehension. But in trying to do so we blocked course purchases. This bug is fixed. We have a request into the devs (who are slow but strangely they DO fix things we report) to repair the functionality allowing the Courses to use the ‘cart’ functionality. Doing so will allow us to issue discounts etc. At present this doesn’t seem possible. And we think it’s necessary given the financial capacity of different ‘students’.

    (FB 1553096070 Timestamp) NO YAHOO ADDRESSES PLEASE No, the site will not accept a Yahoo email address, or a .ru or .pl address, or a three part domain like: something,somethingelse,xyz. That is because these are the primary means by which the ‘russian bots’ spam our site, and the spam software will simply allow you to register but lock you out. FWIW: a yahoo or hotmail address is a little bit like riding the short bus to school, or wearing a pink vagina hat. OK? Grownups don’t use hotmail or yahoo. (I keep hotmail and yahoo addresses for spam magnets: throw aways.)

    SITE UPDATE: BUG ON PURCHASING COURSE FIXED

    Unfortunately we cannot mix the Store and Course workflows for some reason that is beyond my comprehension. But in trying to do so we blocked course purchases. This bug is fixed.
