Reply to: What's going on at PCG

[malvolio]

Thing that kills me is I had a wander through the "opposiition" website to see if there were any likely wind-ups available. Content was so lowbrow it hardly seemed worth trying. At least here, the usual suspects manage to apply a degree of intelligence, even when they're wrong!

Expect it will improve once they get bored shouting "W*nker" at each other.

Long time since I looked at it Z, but the problem may be a very simple technical one. Seem to recall you had to click on every post to read it, after the umpteenth click only to find something not worth reading, it hardly seemed worth the effort. This site as much better as you can simply scroll through to find that none of the posts are worth reading.

Xog is correct: the PCG forum layout is utterly tulipe. Just getting back to the previous topic is ludicrously onerous.

On the PCG site you can choose to view threads in flat mode, which is exactly the same as here.

Reply to Zathras

I was making a bit of a sweeping statement there Zathras. I do look in Technical and Client/Agency matters and the like and have found them useful. I don't use General that often and don't bother with the Lounge at all.

Actually, reading the 'Paulm is no more' thread I do have more sympathy with the 'old school'. They are trying to cope with the 'death' of their old forums and PCG 'club' and are dismayed at interlopers like me. I've been seduced by the offers of discounted insurance and the like (you old rogue Mal! ) and am not that interested in their kind of 'buddy' clique.

The problem for them is that it's more of a business these days - I've paid me money and joined for different reasons than them. But I have requirements too and they're not the same as theirs.

It's probably a good thing they're moving off to another forum - they can have their club back; I won't be following them...

Zathras' use of written English has regularly been described as Sudoku for grammarians. You ain't going to get him to change now!

It's pobably the moderation

That's no excuse I manage it!

Seriously. As a CC member of the PCG I am interested in genuine reasons why people may choose not to use the forums on the PCG. There is a wealth of useful information there.

speel-chocker? Whit speil-chackir?

[zathras]

Very possibly the same reason I haven't. Too busy posting crap on here.

Have you ever considered using the other forums and out of interest is there a reason you have not.

It seems to be going on in General and Lounge Mordac.

I don't really give a toss what goes on in the forums Mailman. I've paid my subs to benefit from discounted insurance and member benefits (IR35 investigation support and the like).

[Mailman]

You lot wouldn't last five minutes with the moderators over there. Some bird dobbed in a couple of members for insulting her, and they got indefinite bans.

It was only some bird for god's sake.

Cojak, was it you?

Id be quite upset after paying their horrendous fee's only to be kicked out after my first run in with a pc moron!

Then again, given some of the absolute dribble posted here Id also be upset if we paid for the rubbish we get to read here daily!

Mailman

It most certainly wasn't, Stacky.

I've got iron knickers and sharp teeth....

Don't forget the heels...<kiss>

[EternalOptimist]

teeth or knickers ?

No you haven't, you left them round here last night.
