Oh good makes me feel better. I do have to count backwards in 7's quite a few times with him or I would be in court for strangling him

[Pipsqueak]

ooh what do I LOVE about the forum

the good friends - met and not met yet - I have made
the amazing advice, the diversity of opinion, the wonderful ideas, the solid support
the laughter, the fun, the antics
the passion of those who are here because we love and believe in our work
dedication of likeminded people - albiet that occasionally we differ in our views
the way y'all can give me 'that lift' when I need it

One of the members on our lovely forum started their own forum but it hasn't been very popular and they are already talking about closing it!

We won't mention it here!!

You just did

[Pipsqueak]

ditto for me

I am also extremely proud that we are a very caring, understanding collective who can and do support each other not just professionally but personally as well. i have seen many threads over the years that have dealt with some really heartbreaking and heartrending stuff and I KNOW that this forum, the people on here make a difference.
For some people we (the Forum collective) are a vital lifeline in more ways than one
I know that if I have a problem or connumdrum - professionally or personally I know that I can come on here, night or day and I will get advice or just a friendly ear to listen, people who will give me a kick up the derriere when its needed or a shoulder to cry on, you allow me to wallow for a bit and then shove me on in the right direction.

People - many of whom I have never met who know me - actually know me and accept me as me! and heavens knows I can be an unlikeable soul at times! lol

This Forum (collective lol) has given me the confidence professionally to know what I do is good and right. It inspires me and helps me improve my practice.

I am sure there is more.....but you get the gist

YAY well said

And to all the friends who i would have never met if it wasnt for here. Some have actually become real friends and not just virtual (voices)friends

I didn't start this thread as some sort of argument maker, I actually have no problem with Richard taking over and actually like the new logo ect. I was trying to make a thread where members could express what they like and don't like in order to help Richard make it better or to improve it.

Im fully aware posts were edited or deleted before Richard took over- I was just saying that maybe it would help not start 'why has my thread gone' posts if it is explained why it has been removed. I was trying to give Richard a helpful tip as to what some member would appreciate.

In my original post I haven't had a dig at anyone. Just simply expressed that I personally feel its lost its homely feel because members feel that the moderation is too strict and thought that a tread where we can explain what we would prefer would help make some member feel more inclined to come back.

I am also aware there are other forums but just feel disheartened that member have started their own forum because they feel they cannot post here.

I now wish I hadn't bothered trying to be helpful now as clearly everyone thinks i was out to cause trouble. I haven't posted on the form in a while, I avoided all those threads because I didn't want to be part of them. If I had wanted to jump on the band wagon and caused trouble it wouldn't have been a post like this.

I honestly feel the forum has lost its homely appeal as clearly everyone is being so judgmental.

[Richard]

The moderation is exactly the same as it has always been. We have the same moderators and posts were sometimes deleted before I took over.

Two threads were deleted when Penny and Blue Boy announced they were leaving but these were replaced with a new thread which explained why the previous ones had been deleted.

We have already had a thread about what members like about the forum and what they would like to see changed or improved and if anyone has any other ideas or suggestions then they are welcome to contact me anytime.

Right I think we are going around in circles booooooo.

The original poster didn't start this thread to start debates

So now you are not allowed to be negative any more ....if you want to be then switch off for a bit like you do when you don't like a tv programme.

We are all different with different views you have had your views good or bad ....time to move on and end the subject NOW ....BECAUSE I SAY SO!!

I havnt posted for ages as personally i feel the forum lost its homely feeling months ago! i think its just far too big, dont know who anyone is with all the name changes and members seem to get to green to quickly. its just less personal than it was.

I will stick around but have def changed into a lurker rather than a poster! lol
