You tell me this forum isn't growing.

The members here at TRF are the best and I want to say thanks for helping us continue to move up !

Mark · 18 November 2005, 12:28 AM

Make that 15.

Uncle-AJ · 18 November 2005, 12:36 AM

To be quite honest I think it's sad that such a previously good forum should get into that state. But to be honest they have no one to blame but themselves. I think the main reason for the popularity of this forum is due to the heavy handed moderating by a few on that other place. Thanks guys.

Those are exactly my feelings, Adrian. I couldn't agree more.

padi56 · 18 November 2005, 12:47 AM

Yes would agree with you Adrian but think most trouble is on the admin side.But its time to forget what goes on over there,this is the most important place now TRF the friendly forum.

18 November 2005, 12:56 AM

Well said all. I think the strength of this place is that it has no major weakness. That can't be said about the place currently (and tenuously) holding on to the number three place in the Euro top 100.

Anything or any forum is what you make it. And the success here speaks volumes for the caliber (pun intended) of the guys and gals here.

Well, then it’s time for a hard-hitting moderator.

Not that “oh, yeah man, groovy” everything goes mentality of the 60’s.

Clean cut, straight eyed healthy young men and women is what we need here. And hygienic, very important. I hope I’ll get your vote, I’ll clean up this place and that’s a promise.
