The site dosn't seem as active as prior to the change over (think this has been mentioned)

Personally I miss the "last 5 posts" section ??

I think this added to the posts as members were quick to post replies, now you have to jump from different sections trying to find up-to-date posts.

I'm presuming it's still early days and things will change...

Very much so mick, very much so! The change over happened in the blink of an eye, and was really the easy bit. And we've had to strip a lot of stuff out of the forum, and refit them......and still have more bits to strip out and replace which we will be doing next week. Then the rebuilding starts, and we hope to add a few new bits that people will like too...... ;0))

Maybe cos it happened just before people were going Modra?
LCGB seemed quieter too

There are certain times of year when the forum seems quieter, usually around major rallies and UK summer holidays etc. But we still have nearly 3000 registered members and around 6000 guests, so we are happy. Its just some of the post notification apps that are missing, but as per last nights post/announcement they should be getting added back in this week.

Cheers

That explains why I've had an e-mail from PayPal saying that Eden Bakewell has cancelled my automatic payment to scooterotica no ads.

I'll have to set up a new payment if I want no ads then will I?

Cheers.

So far so good! Forum is now ad-free, cleaner looking, slicker and faster! Calendar of Scootering events and post related 'top stats' available in the ProSilver style. New 'Whats going on in the Scooterotica Garage' and 'Scooter Racing & Sprinting' sections now opened up.......we are on a roll! ;o))

Will be running a competition to win some goodies soon also, details announced tomorrow! ;o)
