One thing that I prefer about CWDF compared to here is that you don't feel you are talking to yourself in the late evening. On here, despite all the bluster and naughty bravado, you are all safely tucked up in bed with you sooky cloots in the land of nod, by 10pm. Sleep tight! soooooooooooooo where are you now? tucked up in bed with a book? No. At the time you posted I was on another web site. I get your dig but the point is not that everyone should be on line on TB at 23:25 pm every night, rather that I've noticed that the forum goes pretty dead after about 10pm, every night. The juxtaposition of this with the warrior mentality on here amuses me! Am I not allowed to be amused?

I'm curious.
I find I am visiting the other place less and less. I find the new format exceedingly slow to use, and I just don't like it.
But more significantly there appears to be less and less activity.
I know some of you are still regular contributors. Is it my prejudice against the place, or is there a lot less activity?

Rog I'm gradually getting used to it and I understand the change had to be made for technical reasons but it is a bit of a chore at the moment.

Rog Less activity. The three new women mods waved their menopausal wands and it all dried up. And then they buggered off.

I have posted occasionally over the last week or so, I navigate the new format by clicking each topic now..and then get fed up and out I come.

That comment was off their fb site.

No it's down at the moment. I have to say I completely accustomed to the new software, the functionality is the same or better with the exception of post numbering, but then this forum doesn't do post numbering either.

So is it quieter there, or is it my imagination?
And do you find it much slower?

So is it quieter there, or is it my imagination? And do you find it much slower? Rog Very quiet. In fact completely silent at the moment! but no, when it's "up" I don't find it any slower. Hard to say if it's quieter, around the time of my banning all the talk was of the way the forum was going, moderator actions etc. Now there is a new breed of mod who are quite sensible, that is not a subject that needs talking about. It is also still "out of season". What I do notice is a steady stream of new posters asking questions about their electrics as a first post. As always, such questions don't contain enough info and when further clarification is requested they either don't come back, don't come back for a week, or get stroppy because they are being questioned. Often their location is "London". New poster OliveOyl is an exception to all that, she would be a good recruit for TB I think. Maybe one of the gurls with feet in both camps should ask her?

I have, as a result of jenlyns quote of a fb comment, looked at CWDF on fb.
The boilerman still doesn't like the new format, and says he's considering visiting here.
