    We have been discussing internally what we need to do to re-invigorate the forum.
    It still serves a VERY useful purpose, and membership is still rising and the number of concurrent users is also on the rise. That indicates to us that the forum is a valuable resource, but member interaction is falling.

    We need (well, want) to fix this or at least give it our very best shot.  I think @Chris summed up where we are with the following comment, "This place isn't going to get any better with a bunch of old guys reminiscing about how things used to be awesome."

    So what are the changes? @Chris and @DougNg are stepping down.
    I can't even start to quantify the help, support and guidance they have given me over the years.
    They are both close friends and without Doug's encouragement when I was thinking about whether we should start a forum or not, it would not exist.  For the record the Forum was @hectic 's idea, I did not even know what one was, so I asked around and after initially laughing at the idea, it was Doug who told me he thought it could work.

    So the new blood?  I am delighted to welcome on board, @manufc10 , @neph93 and @UnTucked. I feel really confident that these guys will help make this place more fun and interactive.

    Watch this space and a few other places on the forum.

    One of the first things we will do is try and make the place a little more streamlined and easier to navigate, expect that to start happening soon.

        That's what I thought….

          Thanks for the welcome and the opportunity Giles. Looking forward to contributing in a new role. Long live the forum.

            I believe the conversation was:

            Giles: Let's start our own forum

            Doug: This is a terrible idea

            Giles: Hold my beer

              So instead of two cunts you've anointed three…

                I just want to mirror Neph's sentiments. Hopefully I can do whatever it is you think I can, lol! The bar has been set pretty high, so I hope I don't drop the ball (Too quickly).

                    Spelling anointed like that should be a banning offence, but seeing as it's my first day… [emoji851]

                          Yes, but now that I'm no longer an employee, I can do bad things at get togethers.

                                  I 3rd the sentiments of @UnTucked and @neph93.  The opportunity and the welcome are much appreciated.  The torch has been passed and we will do our best to keep it going.

                                      @DougNg, I can't decide if I dislike feral hogs because they're so destructive and obnoxious that even Texans can't stand them, or if I think feral hogs are awesome because Texans can't stand them.

                                          I make no excuses for that.  It's been years since I fired a gun and I was not good at it.  However, I thought you knew that a) I'm not a Texan, merely a resident alien, and b) I'm a lover, not a fighter.

                                          Those are excuses.
