I think Daniel has delusions of grandeur,
It's an Internet forum for gawds sake, When I think about the fuss when the remotest suggestion of allowing advertising on there has been made in the past this will really piss some long standing members off, and probably some newer ones too.

I can't view goodgurl's link as I'm still banned. Just clear the Canalworld cookie from your cache, or access the site using an incognito page.

Well one does have to wonder if Dan isn't transferring too much management-speak he's heard at JCB, to his forum. "Marketing manager" for someone to manage the T shirts and window stickers does seem a little pretentious. But it's just a name, I suppose.

I did have a chuckle at the "marketing manager" statement. In reality, cwdf only has about 40-50 posters, of whom half, just tend to post drivel. It's once reputable knowledge base is getting a bit dated, along with its members. Frankly, Facebook has killed it, and no matter how much dan likes to stretch his imagination, he's never gonna be mark Zuckerberg is he. When looking at other forums across the Internet, it becomes quite clear that cwdf is a bit tacky in comparison, no matter how much dan tends to talk it up.

I still struggle to make sense of the new format.
In truth that's partly cos I simply can't be arsed, and prefer it here.
In the years I was over there, talk of window stickers and T shirts etc cropped up regularly, but never seemed to happen.
It always surprised me that such a large number of posters were anonymous, yet wanted a sticker for their window or a T shirt.

Yes, I think Dan has missed the boat on making a living out of CWF. It's not a newbie friendly forum anymore either, more like a select old boys (and ladies) club. They say things can only be as good as the person running it. Maybe time to let someone else have a go.

There were quite a few posts to that effect just before the "night of the long knives" If it appears to be a money making concern, maybe he believes that will then make him look entrepreneurial and look good on his CV

I snuck back in to make a couple of test posts the other day and I wasn't impressed at all. The ability to fully format your posts appears to be gone and the overall layout is a disaster, and what on earth is all this 'leader board' crap about? Another forum I use seems to be quite happy to stick with the original version so I am totally unsure of the need to switch.

Maybe its something to do with subscription costs? Most people agree that the older layout was better so perhaps IPboard charge more money for it than the new layout? Just a thought.
So if more money could be earned by the webshite then perhaps it would go back to the original well-loved layout.
I'm probably completely off - have always had a habit of making things far more complicated than they actually are.
