[quote user="ricardo"][quote user="Sports Desk Pete"]I''ve been told the sites are a lot more stable today (we live in hope)Any problems please email me[/quote]You''re avin a larf, Pete.I get logged out at random intervals and can''t get back in. Then the whole thing hangs up and crashes or freezes. I have tried 3 different browsers and still no joy. Its bloody appalling Pete, for Chissake! get it fixed we don''t get this trouble on other sites.[/quote]

Blasterd soight need updeertin'' I shink.

Seriously though - the argument by some people (notably Mister ''brown-nose'' Chops) is that the site is free and nobody has the right to complain. Well sod that for a game of soldiers - folk have been using this place for years and deserve better - there''s a myriad free servers out there in internet land that host message boards such as this - the adverts can be a tad frustrating on some of them, but not nearly as frustrating as trying to use a site that''s on its pineapple fritter.

Problems with accessing the message board in particular are constant and getting worse. There seems to be a dwindling number of new posts on the forum, in part doubtless due to the ignorant and abusive responses many users face when posting new threads, but quite possibly also fuelled by the poor IT infrastructure.

That probably covers Pete''s wages [:|]

I doubt the P&L contribution of this forum is in positive figures after you work out the costs of infrastructure and maintenance including staff costs, overheads etc.  The advertising will generate very little income.For clarity, everyone has the right to complain as much as they like, but I don''t see Archant spending any money on resolving the issue as there''s nothing much in it for them to continue.  I suspect the message board will be left to wither and die as there are better, more functional alternatives out there which are already set up and working.

What with remarks like the above and accusations of paedophilia aimed in my direction for making a pretty light-hearted comment regarding a photo of a female who looked in their mid-twenties at least, I expect you''ll be pleased to be the only poster remaining here.

Shyster you should remember that for some people the forum rules are a mere irritation and there to be ignored whereas others get banned for the slightest upsetClearly that person who made that flamatory accusation did not consider the possible consequences
