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.


I agree.

I have to say that i think betrayal is a tad extreme.

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.



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


So do I.

I don`t want to sound ungrateful but I`ll say it again. I don`t like the format of the new forum. It`s not user friendly. It`s less intimate than here. I like the cosiness of this forum. Disappointed

I won`t be around much if it stays that way. Disappointed

Soozy. When you log in do you get a page with lots of text and then a black bar across the top with words like Me, Ticker etc on it?

Great post Ditty, especially the second paragraph. We don't have a God-given right to have a forum to ourselves, and we're damn lucky that GaGa was able find a place to keep it all together, but they're not a charity. I've had a look at LiveCloud and, sure it's new and unfamiliar and I can't say I'm won over, but I've been too busy to have a good old look. I'm waiting till the forum goes over properly and I HAVE to get into it. No doubt it will be strange at first, but if that's where we're going and we can all still stay together, I'll damn well get used to it!

I don't even think it will be that strange Kaffy... we will still have our boards and stuff... the problem is that the tech forum being used as an example is pretty empty.. so looks strange.

just done that and it came up with a whole page of rules and regs and no links to forums.



That sounds like the Homepage. Do you have a black tab across the top with the words Me, Ticker etc. If you haven't that means you haven't logged on.

Yeah.. that's kinda why I'm waiting till the forum moves. Probably won't get involved in the Wall and the blog stuff - I waste enough time on here! Whatever - just like when we got kicked out C4, it's the people that make the place and if it means learning your way around a new layout or whatever, I'm sure we'll cope.

Valentine

to be honest... once the novelty wears off I will probably allow my homepage to gather cobwebs and just stay in the forum too... like you I waste enough time in here.
