dottythe90 Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Good morning - thanks to Trevor for emailing us and pointing the way to the new forum. I havn't had much opportunity to play with the viewing settings yet, but can't see any threading options. Does this forum software not support thread views ?

MartinEva Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Morning all. Just like to add my thanks to all who put this together. I also agree about the "office friendly" colour scheme. From a distance it looks just like MS Word.. When the dust has settled it would be interesting to know what really went on with LRE. From a laymans perpective, not getting 100% behind this very active forum filled with prospective customers seems to be a huge own goal on their part.

Guest diesel_jim Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Morning ladies and gentlebodies! Finally got myself in here (I'm offline at home at the moment until i get my boradband sorted so had to wait until monday morning to get into work!) Hats off to the staff for building this site, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NegevLandRover Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 When the dust has settled it would be interesting to know what reallywent on with LRE. From a laymans perpective, not getting 100% behind this very active forum filled with prospective customers seems to be a huge own goal on their part. Martin I guess that they were finding it difficult to compete with the competition that the forum generated and felt that the "potential customer" was having his eyes opened by the discussions and buying elsewhere. If running a forum is expensive then the cost/reward approach may be justified but if it is not expensive then surely any income generated by the forum is better than none let alone a negative attitude now held by some of the now ex-potential customers who now hold a grudge and will vote with their money. When some one belittles their competition I generally move on - "sell your advantages - don't present your competition's disadvantages" Old Chinese proverb says "When little man makes long shadow end of his day is nigh" Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v8bertha Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Cool! Finally made it here... good to see you all! B) Noticed that the LRE forum is still there, but without the LRE banner... didn't somebody said it was going off line? One feature I miss is being able to display all posts rather than page at a time. Can this be added? Nice format tho. I once saw a website that had a BIG link on the side saying "My boss is coming", click on it and it displayed a "business looking" chart type thing... groovy idea!

Astro_Al Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Hello, I've 'migrated'. Are we ever going to find out what happened??? Anyway, thanks very much for sorting this out, I'm glad it hasn't just died. I third the suggestion of keeping it office-friendly if possible. Cheers, Al.

Jon White Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 So come on then - spill the beans peeps - what was all the politics about LRE all about then??? Am i allowed to say that here??? Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Henson Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 When the Lre forums finally disappear then I'll give you the information you require, but we still have to tread carefully for a couple of months. You'll all be able to vent your anger on here eventually - promise. Before then it might cause more trouble for us and ruin some plans.

Steve King Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 It's a shame in a way that we had to move away from the old forum, but in the end I'm sure there was no choice. The management at the old place were responsible for causing conflict between mods and administration. Well done everyone for creating a new and work friendly place for us! Let's hope we can all be happier here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
