johnoo 5 Posted February 20, 2019 Report Share Posted February 20, 2019 Great to see that members are not reporting problems perhaps due to better technology & also expertise of members. But are the Moderators looking at ways of changing/enhancing this great old forum to keep interest alive? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

No, the phrase flogging a dead horse comes to mind. This is now officially the Norwegian blue parrot of Internet forums. Bereft of life it rests in piece, it's shuffled off this mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisible!! THIS IS AN EX-FORUM ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Boris 32 Posted February 20, 2019 Report Share Posted February 20, 2019 If nobody posts new problems ...................................... we can't reply/solve them Even though there are no new problems, there are (currently) 10 guests reading the topics already posted.

catgate 7 Posted February 21, 2019 Report Share Posted February 21, 2019 I have a long way to walk and also a long way back.........it all depends We of the older orders are not as young as the older "olders" used to be, when they were younger than we who were (and still are) slightly older. It is of little importance until something arises to that is important to the "olders". But the youngsters are simply "all agog! " by late afternoon on every Thursday after 3 p.m. I have talked to one or two people, who wish for change in size, but sadly I can not advise them, since I am bound by the promise to ignore all passing handcarts and ladys with excessive wobbles.

-pops- 26 Posted February 22, 2019 Report Share Posted February 22, 2019 I also look in regularly and prune the never-ending flow of rubbish members that plague all forums (as I know the other moderators do). There is a problem with the whole forum format. It cannot compete with the so-called social media platforms and is regarded by many as being as modern as Noah and his Ark. Coupled with the fact that the whole raison d'être of Windows Forum is effectively obsolete doesn't offer much hope that anything can be resurrected. Sad? Perhaps but things must move on.

I suspect Windows Forum is just approaching it's "Zenith", which, suitably treated, could carry on for at least another year or two (should we all be spared!) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That is a very interesting question, pops, The current amount of zeniths "used up" (and/or " lost & not found") has increased amazingly since the introduction of early closing in all the shops and takeaways that do not permit zenith servicing more than 4 hours (after six o.clock p.m. on Wednesdays.) This does not seem to have affected Quote Link to post Share on other sites
catgate 7 Posted February 25, 2019 Report Share Posted February 25, 2019 It is now too late to save any of the nadir ointment. I must try to find a good substitute. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
catgate 7 Posted February 28, 2019 Report Share Posted February 28, 2019 The quest for nadir ointment is not having the enormous success that was expected. This has led to a need to refine the home guards, and re assess Mrs. Sutcliffe's Biceps. It has been known for quite a while that she uses Eritrean lard for tuning her Pit Bull-terrier before rolling it up and put it in the cupboard for the winter. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Is she by any chance related to Mrs Slocombe of changing hair colour and her famous feline partner? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
catgate 7 Posted March 2, 2019 Report Share Posted March 2, 2019 I have tried to find the answer to your question in vain. I also tried to find out if Atoms were edible, (particularly after 9.0 p.m.) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
