| Me too - I've really missed the Forum while it's been "off air". I always look forward to logging on and checking the gossip! It's a great asset to the village - thanks to all who keep it going. |

Adverts are annoyingly conspicuous.
Oh, and I had to 'submit' to the forum rules before I could post. Great - NOT!

Well if we all contributed about £2 a year then I'm sure all the ads could go. ------------- Is back in the game! :) |

watsy pays to keep the forum alive, dont knock it, he does this at his personal expense.....
i agree with walrus... if we all chipped in watsy would not be out of pocket and the forum could continue.....
i know there used to be a ' donate' option via paypal.... ------------- need a stella and i need one now ! |

The Paypal buttons won't be returning as they didn't work. I'll re-look at the advertising in the near future but have other things to do at the moment. Constructive criticism welcome as this was a large upgrade from the previous version - prefer it not to be derogatory and patronising please. "Great - NOT!" does not fit with the former more the latter. Also noticed Chalfont Snapper image is missing now - was this missing before?

| Watsy - many people have negative reactions to change without considering the work that has gone into making that happen - I stick by my earlier comment that it is a great facility for the village to have and am grateful for all the hard work that goes into it. |

| Agree with Piglet, really enjoy the forum and if ad's are the necessary evil to help it continue then so be it! We'll soon not even notice them!!:) I would be happy to contribute so Watsy doesn't carry all the cost. |

Was meant to inform rather than offend - but pointedly rather than meekly. "Submitting" to anything, yet alone mere forum rules is best avoided IMO. A very poor choice of words.

| Great new forum format but where is the active button telling you all new comments? |

| Hi Anita, if you scroll to the bottom of the first page (forum header page, don't know what you'd call it!!), down to where it shows you who's logged on, there is a section showing all active topics and latest posts. |

| It looks good and its great that someone organises this. It's a great asset to the village and to living here. I dont know who other people are on the forum but I enjoy hearing everyone's views and imagining what you are all like! |

It looks very nice. Thank you for all your hard work and I certainly missed it while it was gone. I am sure I will get used to it, I just do not adjust to change very well. I used to like the option to see newest posts first. That was very useful when a topic went go on and on. Maybe I just haven't found it yet lol!!!

I also was going to mention this. On the classic view, there is a little arrow on the extrem right. That links you you to the last post. I haven't found a way of getting to the last post on the mobile view. Otherwise, it's very nice, neat and tidy. Thank you to all involved. ------------- Hissing Sid It's a free country, adopt whatever PC stance you want. Just don't tell me which stance I should take just because it clashes with your opinion. |
