We've always used Invision forum software......going back to 2002. So everybody's used to it. It has changed a lot over the years.....here's DSUK in 2004.... But we've moved along incrementally from there as the software has evolved, so this latest version isn't a big step for the old crew. Over there, they're moving forward 15 years in one step......consequently some brains got frazzled! If you don't move forward in IT you'll just be left living in the past.

Yes......but your few nice words usually involves putting a gun barrel in peoples' mouths Tym! Wasn't that your solution to the Mad Dean problem?

I'm not bothered Bruce! Let me give you a bit of history....... I was a member since 2013, and only a couple of months ago, I assisted them to sort out their database problems, even contacting their hosts to get them to act. (People know me in this industry so I spoke directly to the CEO in the US). Then I helped them to convert their forum from phpBB to IPB. I even chipped in to help them buy their software as well, and organised a whip round from other members to make up the shortfall. I also gave them the Help topics that I created here, advised on forum configuration, addons to get, and showed them how to set up their newsfeeds with full content as we have here, Anybody who was there a few months ago knows that's the case.....I haven't exaggerated or embellished anything. So I did my bit then! And quite frankly if they feel they need more tuition on how to run a forum properly and not treat members in an unprofessional or unethical way, then they're welcome to watch and learn.

Yes I know Pedro! But I wanted to make it clear (after Clive brought the subject up) that nobody can read PM's unless they're a recipient in the message.

I can't! There is no facility in the software that allows that. It doesn't exist and never has! If I wanted to, I could trawl through thousands of lines of database entries in phpMyAdmin on the server......which would take forever to do. And I really don't want to. The mindless drivel that gets written on the board itself is quite enough for me, without spending a day trying to read more.

Worst one we've had in 15 years here! Gale force winds forecast for tomorrow as well.

Wow......that's amazing Ray. Never seen those sculptures before! You've been very lucky with weather there.....it's been 8c, rain, and gale force winds here! The city of Granada even had an earthquake measuring 4.2 today......the 10th one in this province in 3 days! Granada rocked by magnitude 4.2 tremors – half a million people impacted

The only people who can read PM's are the people that are communicating. Not even I can read the PM's.

Very nice!

What about the stuff you eat that tastes like Cockney Fanny though?

Yes it appears so! Not sure why they're interested really......but there you go!

I'm sure he'll have asked permission Clive! And did you know we've been watched? I've already matched one IP address to a member of the Management team.

I've never seen any where I am though. And never seen any bikes showing signs of salt damage.

Seen this report @skyrider

I thought Babycham was your tipple?

Top Man Clive! That'll straighten that millennial motherfucker out!

Tools are highly overrated!

If you ain't livin' on the edge you're taking up too much space Fred! Even at my age I'll take any risk......except Tools! That's a bridge too far!

Send him an incoherent warning PM Clive.......that seems to be the modern method of dealing with things.

No.....I said there was loads of cunts on here!

A lot of people being called Cunts, Bruce showing his ass to Michelle again, Fred fell down some steps and even managed to get it on vid, I'm now a Dead Man Walking because I don't carry a Preppers Survival Kit when I take my bike to the bike wash, and my Beemer's getting a Puck fitted next week!

What you reckon @Clive?
