Looks a lovely house.
That article should drum up some business at the auction, fingers crossed for you.

Thanks for the comments about the house. Just need a genuine potential buyer to view the place rather than the deafening silence at the moment. Not sure whether the hyperbole about potential future value is helpful or not though. Today has been spent tidying up the gardens - beats just sitting here with my fingers crossed...

You should set up a survey of posters on here to identify how many genuine posters we have. Your 'test poll' seemed very popular Rog

I don't know about this forum software but on Canal world there is the option to search by number of posts, number of profile views etc so it would be very easy to just do it by number of posts and examine how many have more than a dozen posts. Or whatever. Just to get an idea of activity. There will be a lot of people reading as well but with nobody actually posting anything there would be nothing to read.
But then there is the situation where people change their identities and attempt to artificially augment or abate their post count.
I hate that sort of thing.

Well they've made it very appealing...good luck with sale

If people just want to read what's the problem? I think you have to sign in to read the pub threads?
I think Foxy would like to be a mod. "Look at that, somebody should do something about it". Were you a Steve Wright character in a previous life Foxy? "Have you got a permit for that?".

I agree that reading can be the best option and I wish I could do it It's only the members area which nobody ever posts in which requires login. As it happens my phone which is my only internet access requires my password each time I view the forum No objection to people reading but surely you can see my point that "literally" there would be nothing to read if nobody posts anything ? Bearing in mind the context.

Seems to there aren't many regular posters but I quite like that, less time wasted on the internet and I can just about remember who everyone is (in my imagination).

I'm bound by the official secrets act so if I tell you the answer then I will have to have you either killed (to put it bluntly) or removed to a safe area. I prefer the latter as "I quite like you" but you should know that you will never again be allowed to indulge in your love of old boats or weird toileting arrangements. You will be an anonymous pleb in an anonymous house somewhere with an anonymous car.
You do not want this.

I think Foxy would like to be a mod. Β Not at all. I just think the membership list is a lie as it stands at the moment. You don't need to be a member to read Thunderboat. It would seem obvious that most accounts are dead. I'd have a clearout, like sweeping leaves off the lawn in October. Β I would not like to be a shepherd of people, they are an unruly bunch which is why Communism is just a theoretical concept (if even that). Β I sometimes wonder how long Thunderboat will go on for - hopefully for many, many years, and hopefully in its present form - seems to have done well without 'moderators'. Β Of course, TB isΒ moderated by Delta. How he finds the time to supervise it all is beyond me. He has kept us on track admirably, but left enough slack for us to hang ourselves - as it should be. I've never looked at the member list. I suggest you do likewise and see if your perceived problem goes away.π
