The 10am clean up
We used to have such a laugh back then, cos as soon as a mod would delete threads someone would start another one with the same subject matter and this would go on for hours
I still think my most favourite thread ever was Kit Kat call you in 10
I don't really remember thread titles Karma i just remember my kids looking at me like i was deranged loon while i was pmsl reading through the over night threads. Also i remember the fact i used to get nothing done cos i spent so much time on there!

that was funny
I miss not having anything to read with my morning coffee. . was almost a daily occurrence of a good meaty thread [until the 12am shutdown when it didn't happen as much.. ]
then frantically trying to get all the tabs open before the 10am deletion and settling in for a good read...
bring back the mentals. . I miss em, my coffee doesn't taste as good without their threads to read of a morning ..

I miss the flounce threads...no one did it better than Trev or Strangey

I used to love it, waking up flicking PC to load while kettle boiled and trying to read all the over night antics before the mods came in at 10am with their broom and swept them all away. (sound like a sado when i put that in text hehe)
me too... reading so fast you thought your eyes were going to bleed
I miss it. I used to check the forum every 5 mins, but I never got the bug for here and only venture in every couple of weeks or so

I love this place , dont get me wrong. but it just doesnt have the same feel as the channel forum did. Its always so quiet on here. I remember new forum members joining channel 4 constantly daily. That doesnt happen on here.There was such a buzz on channel 4 and always busy. I was addicted to channel 4 when i joined. It was great. And this place is great aswell but its just not the same
How can we make this place feel more like a forum like channel 4? How can we get new people to join? And all the dear forum members that have left us , how do we get them back? where have they gone?
The forum/thread isn't allowing me to quote properly so forgive me -
I do however agree CCM - I used to love having a treat in the morning and signing in to talk and chat - but it's so slow that I barely 'sign in' these days (probably something that's not helping so I will do from now on).
I too really wish we had the buzz we once had.
I'm not into this FB and Twitter stuff - I just want a good old chat.

I've been thinking (dangerous move - don't worry I don't do it often) but I think if all of us were plonked back on C4 for a couple of days we'd probably be screaming with frustration, mainly cos we have alot more freedom here. Here you can PM, swear (a bit ) call Kylie Minogue a trog, Madonna a hag...the 'freedom of speech' is definitely a lot better here, however I also understand it doesn't have the same buzz. But C4 was a commercial site, so attracted a hell of a lot more people than this place will cos this place isn't attached to a TV or radio channel of any kind.
While I do like everyone here (sycophantic get out of jail card) - I would like to see an influx of new blood - mainly to play with

Oh yes :E
Jim Davidson is a racist, homophobic, twunt.

You might get the Mods asking you who Jim Davidson is, though - which is another reason for preferring this forum...
I tend to agree with 'Karma' - the only thing I want is our 'mates' back and the amount of people who used to join/sign in daily. I, also would love to meet new, enthusiastic memebers and become buddies with them. I've never joined a forum before this and I love the familiar people FMs I know.

I had to speak to that very twunt on the phone once (don't ask). He hung up abruptly after I implied that most people thought he fitted your description..
When we were on Eve the mods used to join in and have a laugh but I notice that since we were exported to Live Cloud this doesn't seem to happen, unless I've missed it somewhere. I do tend to stay on this bit.

And yet, he seems to take pride in it!

For a professional comedian, he has a surprisingly thin skin and poor sense of humour.I don't want to go into too much detail for reasons that will become obvious, but a close friend of mine runs meetings for "a certain mutual aid group". Jim Davidson turned up at one of their meetings, but didn't seem to appreciate the, er, "banter" that is a common feature among the group, and subsequently went elsewhere...
If we all want new blood, why don't we all do some search engine optimization for the forum? If we all did it, it would make a massive difference, trust me.
Sounds like a plan Crunchy...
What's one of them, then?

Not really
I would only consider assisting with SEO if there were shekels in my pocket for the effort!
Search engine optimization....isnt that something that can only be done from within? Like those responsible for designing and running the place?
Keywords and all that jazz?

Am I the only one who has no idea what this means? I just log on and follow the trail of the dregs of Ch4 .....................if I could get it back to what it was ..................I would - but I wouldn't have a clue where to begin TBH.
They can 'buy' tag words Ika (there are different ways of doing it), and then those tag words would be 'attached' to stuff we post, which would then bump up the presence on google.
When you type 'livecloud' into google, this place comes up in the first 2 hits, that's organic SEO cos obviously this is the most popular site called livecloud with the most amount of hits (organic SEO is where the host hasn't had to pay to be on the first page of google listings - not including the yellow boxes above - these are paid for sponsored links)
If my memory serves me right the listings down the right hand side of the google page are listings that have gained popularity through keywords/tags (or PPC).
And I've just decided that I am going to get a refresher course in all this malarky and virtual media and follow that career path. You've just helped me decide something you clever lot! Ta

When I log on ................i type in 'Livecloud ga ga joy joy big brother' .................into Google. It's the only way I know how. It brings me straight in. TBH - it's a bit random and I wonder how many others know what to type in. I have been hanging on by the skin of my teeth since the change over - really and truly haven't a clue about anything else on this ginormous site ..............I just wonder how many others have tried and failed.
So, if they bought 'blue' and 'waffle', would we get some visitors?

Proper real life LOL!
Do not make me picture the skank again1!!
it would be heaving (whichever way you interpret that word) in here if we bought "blue" "waffle"
I'm not sure how to best greet a visitor who was coming to find some blue waffle though!

God don't do a Sheryl and send pictures of your flange (Even though I very much doubt you are feeling the blue waffle love if you know what I mean) Erm, anyway yeah, dont do that
even in my most hedonistic days... flange pics were not my style!

Sooz... Do you know how to save your 'favourite' sites, and where to get them when you have? You wouldn't have to do that at all then... and I think it might make you feel a bit more connected to us all... Like coming 'home'
I know loads of former FM's who know the way to this place perfectly well but just don't bother with it because its just so boring I think I'm hanging on just living in hope but as interesting as the last place it aint.
get them over here squiggle , it wont be boring if more people join
Chicken its just something about this place. I can't put my finger on it but its just wrong. All I know is that for some reason it doesn't feel like a proper forum sadly.

What's to miss? Once the rot ters set in.....the death knell was tolled.
I loved CH4 forum I loved when it was opened 24/7 it was the FMS who made the forum, when GaGa gave us a home here I was over the moon we could all move at the same time some never made the move and that was their choice,some made the move to FB before CH4 closed down,I prefer this forum it may be quiet but so was the old forum when BB was not on,if CH4 forum opened again tomorrow I would not go back there I would stay here
