Its not very nice
Thanks and oh no! I just want to post shite on here! I don't want to get up close and personal...no offence...
IMO if we 'all disappear' it'll be a case of 'cutting off your nose to spite your face'. Most of us are 'here' because we wanted to stay together as a group, the forum style was an added bonus. So are we prepared to throw away our group/community because of some style changes?quote:Originally posted by Lazybug:

I like this format
I'm worried we're all gonna end up disappearing as it won't be the same
Not 'appy
You can continue as at present once we migrate to 'there'. There will be no need to have anything to do with th 'up close and personal' side of things at all!quote:Originally posted by mathom:quote:Originally posted by Lazybug:In www.hoo.doquote:Originally posted by mathom:

Same here.
Glad you got in Lazybug
I know it doesn't look very user friendly or even welcoming when you first see it. A lot of us have persevered because when this Forum is eventually moved there we'd like to stay in touch.Once our Forum is there hopefully everyone here can find an easy way to gravitate towards it and not bother with the extras there if they're not interested as they're only optional extras
I went over for the first time this morning and I hadn't a clue. I don't think I'll bother.
Why do they need to change things
Why do they need to change things
I havent been able to login for 2 days. The login box for email address and password was coming up but no cursor so I couldnt put them in. I need to change my email address also and have just tried to do that but it sent me to another page! 
People there is still going to be a forum there isnt a link to it there yet.
They are adding other things like blogs etc you dont have to use them.
The forum will look a bit different because they are changing the look a bit but it will still be here and you wont even have to go anywhere else on Livecloud.

Jackson did you mention BB was a member at Eve? She may have accidentally fiddled with settings and changed a password when trying to login to the Main LiveCloud site without realising it..
Happened to some others too ..Gaga was able to sort it for them
Many thanks for those who have posted in this thread offering me help and support. I really appreciate it.
Olly I don't know what is happening, I used my correct email address - it's my main email addy and it's the only one I use - and I used my correct password. But the messages I kept getting was referring to my incorrect username??? In the end at my last attempt everything on the page became all jumbled up and superimposed on top of each other making it illegible. Lori knows about this and I will just wait until moving day and see what happens them. I can't keep trying at the min for various reasons, one being that it's still raining here and that makes my internet connection bad and I keep getting cut off every couple of minutes. xx
I am wondering if its because your username has asterisks in it BB. It might be messing with some scripts. Techy steve should know.

I just got a reply from Lori and it appears that the username BB was taken in 2007 and also asterisks are not allowed. Yet I registered the name *BB* on the support forum in April no bother. I'm waiting on Lori getting back to me about this. I am soooooo confused!
I am a programmer, you learn to know what are always the culprits in things like these. Its why I am so good and other mere mortals struggle in my wakequote:Originally posted by *BB*:quote:Originally posted by CaptVimes:

Dont worry they will sort something they know the problem now.
What a fabulous idea. Not.
After the C4 forum went kaput; a small minority of folk made it to these new shores, and some semblance of the original community restored.
So; we have something which again works; but tell you what, we'll piss about and start somewhere else as well. Clearly a significant number of people have indicated they won't be going either because they can't be arsed, or because - to quote the poll "whatcha talkin' about Willis..?"
The forum is here now. Why do people feel the need to constantly break things which are working just fine..? What on earth more does anyone want other than a place to meet with everyone else - which we have right here.
How long before some genius then discovers another new place for people to go to..? You just lose people along the way by constantly being too smart for your own good & never content with what we have now..
..sigh. Gripe over..

I have to agree with you Lucifer. 
shove your livecloud up your shitty arse c4 forumers have been sold up the river,

the question remains where are we going? livecloud isnt even a forum so where are we going to live?
lets make a decision or lose what is left of us forever

This entire forum will be moving over there. I very much doubt that you will be moving with us.
I hope it is purple with darker purple writing.
i certainly wont be moving with you as the majority of the c4 community will not either it only remains to be seen where they will move.quote:Originally posted by *BB*:quote:Originally posted by bobnot:

why on earth would a community of forum users move to a fake facebook??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Seems I'm not the only one suffering a bad case of 'underwhelment'. Bugger it; I'm sticking to this place til she sinks..fed up of chasing new venues when no good reason to do so exists

It would appear Bob is definitely not coming with you/others migrating *again* to another venue.
Can't say I blame him. By the time people finally stop changing venues there'll be sod all anyone left. Just what's wrong with this perfectly functional forum is a mystery to me too.
What with Faceless Books, Twatter and BeBoobs fascinating folk, I guess it's only to be expected that people will constantly seek a pot of gold InterWeb place which will finally assuage their desire to be in the 'coolest' place possible.
It's a shame that by then most of the characters will have given up the ghost of playing catch-up..but hey..there'll be loads more gizmos to play with..before low boredom thresholds set in and another move is called for.
I forgot. Did they ever find that pot of gold..?? Wouldn't have to ask I suppose if a regular Twatter..
Despite my caustic take, what I'm saying is true. This is a small representation of the old C4 forums. By the time people stop following new flocks to imaginary new pastures of green, what we've recouped here will be lost. Bit hard to retain the atmosphere when it's only a minority of folk, and many of the less patient/internet savvy have called it a day.
Anyone who cares to disparage that fact is free to do so. But a 'fact' it is no matter how much 'logic' technology..or indeed Twatters..you throw at it

Ello hun
It's not us wanting to move to somewhere cooler mate, it's the admin hosting us that are moving us.
From what I can gather (which may be wrong) they were the tech side of the C4 forum. When the plug got pulled they gave us a temp home on their support forum then set this site up for us.
I thought that this set up would remain and that the US side of it would be joining us with this format but it turns out that the Livecloud thingy is the format that the ptb want to use so we will be moving over there.
My understanding is that if you want to continue to just use the forum setup then you won't have to re reg just come here as normal and you will be redirected to the forum over there which is supposed to be similar to this.
There is a FB aspect to Livecloud and if you want to use that side of it then you have to fill out an additional reg form but if not then your details should just be sent over there anyway
I think.........
But I'm probably wrong

I don't want all this FB, Twitter, blogs etc., I just want a forum (pref like this one) to post on. So, I will give it a go over there, but I won't be using all the additional features.

I am waiting until we all go over Lass but so far I am not impressed. But who knows by the time the clever ones have had time to fiddle it might, in the end, feel something like this.

I'm with you hun, believe me. I just want the bog standard forum we have here too.
I'm regged on FB and don't need another networking site tbh but I regged at LC because, at that point, I didn't know that you didn't need to
Don't get lost hun in the move
Ive moved over but im not comfortable there and dont think i will be around once this has gone.
im frightened to do anything over there.
I will have a look once this has gone but doubt i will post.been great here and i will miss it.

I know how you feel han, and I have a nasty feeling about it but I am going to try to remain optimistic and hope that they can sort something out that seems a bit easier to use than they have now.
come and post on my wall and i'll post on yours , that'll get you going.thing is there is only the test and support forums there at the mo, when this one gets shunted over, there'll be more activity.quote:Originally posted by Justafriend:

I'm moving over and to a certain extent have kinda moved in , almost, like!
I stated in another thread that under no circumstances did I want to do the 'networky' thing, I just wanted a forum in which I can post and go - but to my utter surprise I have some buddies (who knew?) AND have tentatively started a blog! I know!
I'm still extremely disappointed and bewildered by the 'forum' part of the operation which unsettles me. I just hope that it becomes easier to use once we are all there.
I think the best thing to do is to explore the site - just be careful I don't brush up against you on my 'feeling around' explorations!

I keep popping over there for a nose around and trying to accustom myself to it. All we can do is to give it a go when we are all there and it is up and running. If we don't like it or can't get on with it, well we shall have to become nomads
