| Hi Guys Just wondered how you are settling into the new forum. Personally I love it It is pleasing to the eye, bright, cheerful and easy to get around and I :Hearts:the smilies :Sunny:Everyday there seems to be something new. I am still finding my way around. I only learned tonight that you can read all new posting on the Potral just hit the button . I would love to see more people in chat as I do get fed up to myself Thanks to ALL who gave us this wonderful forum - You all did fantastic!!!! WELL DONE Oddy |

| Hi Oddball, I think the space between each post is quite big compared to the postings that most people make, so if I may suggest the spacings to be a fraction smaller, then we wouldn't need to go through too many pages. Just a thought! |

| Hi Bernie, Yes you are right this new forum takes a bit of getting used to but it is better than the old one. I slightly disagree about the smilies though as I think there was a bigger variety on the old site, there is no kiss or blush etc on this one maybe Ashley could nick some off SKYPE. I have often looked in chat but no one is ever there, and the 'Who is on line' thingy must be wrong as there always seems to be lots of people on line, where as on the old site it was more realistic. Maybe I'm wrong and there is always lots of people on at the times I am but I doubt it Also with chat I think the 2 hour time difference makes a big impact. As you know when it's 8PM there its 10 PM here and us old uns are thinking of re-charging the batteries . Maybe answers to this are required on a post it : : . Like you I like a gos so we will have to find a solution. In fact I thought we had on the old site. Bit of good news at last. We had 2 days of heavy storms here and my basement did not flood. So thanks to Mike and some work I did myself might have cured the problem. Tony xx |

| Hi all this forum is so much better than the old as you've all said and yes when you click on the who's on line button it does show a lot of members on line, but if they don't log out when they leave the forum it will still show them as being logged in for a while maybe be an hour, we do have a lot of members who visit and read the topics but never post :Shocked:so from your point of view its not possible to get an accurate idea of who's on line at any given time, sometimes members will log on and just go off somewhere and then return ? we are all different and do different things but one thing is for sure we are growing very nicely |

We still have all the smilies from the old site. When you post a reply, just underneath the smilies on the right hand side, click 'View more smilies' which will give your four pages worth! Best Wishes Chris |

| Thanks Chris I have seen and used the extras. But there are a few repeats and some simple one's likes Kisses, hugs and blush are not there. Didn't know there were four pages though will look deeper next time I make a post or comment :Ch:Tony |

| I think this forum is brill but one thing I have noticed is that some members who have adds on here haven't been posting for sometime???? not trying to tell anyone how to do their job but don't you think these members should be told that we ain't here just for free advertising?? |

| Quite agree Scott but I'm not :eek:. It's cheap ads for a captive audience After living here for 3 years I have decided that there is not much that I cannot do myself or find someone that I know and trust that can get something done for me. Some Bulgarians rip us off but we know who they are. Plus I think Mike was trying to say something similar in one of his posts about knowing who your friends are. I would not trust most of the so called British tradesmen here unless I had a very strong recommendation and proof of workmanship. Plus I would want to pay BG wages not inflated UK one's. I also don't like it that some people have chosen to post an advert then to be told to introduce themselves then nothing. In my opinion not genuine forum members. From an old training-isum its just a WIFM (Whats in it for me). [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] :Truce:So in reality they don't want to know about anyone else they just want our money, so what's new. |
