Why is this feed offline? Why did a feed get deleted? How do I report a problem?

Broadcastify is just the delivery platform for the over 6000+ feeds provided by an entirely volunteer group. With this in mind unfortunately we have little to no control over the availability of the live audio feeds hosted on our site. Feeds will come and go all the time on the Broadcastify...

Some forums have bots that parse messages to prevent the Founder & CEO from having to jump in to point people towards stickies, wonder if something could be applied in this case?

That is a good point, but if they have an issue with their eyesight and use a screen reader that may not help. I would say that could be a reason they did not select to contact the broadcaster or report a problem issue using the image links on the feed pages. If an alt tag is not enabled with the image/button, I doubt a screen reader is unable to parse and read it aloud. I do not see an alt tag in the HTML for those image button links for the feeds.

It is rather difficult to miss those buttons if one's eyesight is 20/20 or corrected by some means.

I totally agree on every point, but I assume The Great Blantoni's time is valuable, and if a bot could have done what he did...he could have done...something else.

He's only "great" on his days off like the rest of us. Anyways, it's probably just an edit on two files or a stylesheet to add the appropriate alt tag for those images. Oh, I forgot about Dashboard. Perhaps a few more edits to add on the list of things to do that never ends.

The feeds are run by a volunteers streaming the radio online, they probably went offline for personal reasons, ect.
