At the end of the day, it's a forum. You can come here and discuss Peugeot related topics or anything else in the relevant section. As long as it performs this task (bar the current known editing issue) what else is there that a forum could do for *you*? Well then by the same token, why aren't we all driving about in rickshaws? Why buy nice cars? Why buy decent clothes when dirty old rags will do? It doesn't *need* doing, in that it works - that doesn't mean it doesn't look like s**t, no wonder no-one signs up anymore. Nothing *needs* doing (except the edit function), it'd just be nice to get something back for our money, as seemingly he's been less interested than ever now he's taking everyone's money, and yet laughed at me for even suggesting he hand the reigns to someone else, I know we've had this conversation a thousands times and we'll have it a thousand more, I just don't understand it. Having the time is not an excuse, I make web pages and write software for a living, if he's capable of having written this entire site, it'll be literally a few seconds work to undo whatever f**kup he did that stopped the edit function working. No-one's saying he should commit his life to the cause out of the goodness of his heart, they're saying he should undo his f**kup which we paid him to do. ________________________________________ Membership expiring soon, get in contact on our new little forum project. |

This site is a massive improvement compared to Club306. The numbers there have dwindled dramatically and most of the people on there no longer own 306's. I think the average daily attendance is 6. So in all honesty i don't think we have to worry about this site looking old and boring (putting new members off) because in all honesty; it still has a higher new membership rate! I'm not saying i dislike Club306, because i have been a member there for longer than this site. But they haven't had the time and energy to give the site the boost it needs. It's slowly digging itself a grave. ________________________________________ Richies Project RallyeElectrical work carried out in Portsmouth jamiek_uk2000 wrote: - Top Tip!!!

To be honest, it's not really a case of being 'the nicest person in the world', I just feel that in all the years I've been on here, it is nice to give something back to the community which I've been an active part of for so long, and that's why I first applied for this role to try and achieve that goal. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |
