Why do I get the feeling that just a few short weeks after we climbed on board this is all going to turn out to be such a disappointment.

I have read every thread on it. We liked the format when we signed up. It looked just like C4, it felt just like C4. And I have gone along with the change and signed up to Live Cloud but I am not liking the look of the proposed forum and I can just see it being like the end of the C4 thing all over again with everyone not knowing which way to jump.

Hope I'm wrong.

LiveCloud is just a bigger place which includes other bits and bobs and the forum will be part of it.

The same mods that run this place, ie Rosemary, Ted, Dave, Lori, Steven and others will be the same mods the runs LiveCloud.Smiler


Yes but I don't think the forum format will look like this or be as user friendly. And I think we all have to discuss it now, not when they change it all.

You already have. This place is LiveCloud...look on the right hand side of the forums.Wink


Yes queenshaks but that's all about to change, I hear tell they are about to send the forum over to Live Cloud and it will be slightly different to what we have now.

Don't worry until we have to. Squiggle I left a post for you about your emails in another thread.


Thanks Tayto, you don't happen to remember which thread do you?

And I do think we have to try and work with the mods and not just have something imposed upon us that we won't be happy with and which will probably cause people to leave in droves.

You said you were still getting emails. My post was to make sure you clicked 'submit' at the bottom of the page for the changes to take effect.
Hope that helps.


Oh yeah, thanks Tayto. I have replied. I unticked all the boxes, clicked 'submit'. All the boxes are STILL unchecked. I am STILL getting emails.

Did you check the link QS?


Yes...I have posted there already.


Did you like it? Because I have tried posting there as well, successfully after the usual 'error' message which I know they are working to fix. And I think it will put off about 85% of the people who post regularly on this forum. Just my opinion and no doubt others will add their comments over the days but so far I am not impressed.

I don't mind it, there are a lot of error messages but am sure they are fixing it.

It's ok...will I use the other features in the future? Very doubtful, will wait to see what the forum is like.

I have a gut feeling you are right squiggle and i agree with you Hug

Ok.... I used this analogy over there... and Lori felt it was an accurate one...

think of it like this.... our forum is like a community hall... we are all in the one room and we all just mingle and chat in groups (threads). This place is like a housing estate that we have all moved into... so we have to actually run around to each others houses to chat and stuff..(and scrawl on their front walls).... when they teleport our community hall into here (our forum...) it may look a little different, but it will be our forum.... and then we can either stay in the hall as before, and just visit each others houses if we see fit.

Also... and I am not having a go at anyone here when I say this... but I do think we should be careful not to slate our hosts, or take them for granted. They have put themselves out for us... they didn't have to provide us temp accomodation when c4 kicked us out, and its not like we are always a pleasure to have about, or don't try the patience of a saint sometimes.

I cringe when I read some of the harsher comments that are being posted.

Dave is online. He's not showing online in here but if you click out and go on the main page that lists all the forums, he is. Smiler
