Keep it up guys, this is good.
Here here
Seconded.
I have yet to comment in this thread, as I've been mental busy with work/family, etc, but I've been poking my nose in on occasions, but mostly lurking in the background.
I am massively impressed with the way the club has pulled together regarding improvements, and many of the suggestions posted in here are fantastic! I definitely have to echo the comments made about mods mainly being here to maintain a level of decorum (possibly not including Matt ), there is nothing stopping anyone from arranging a meet or anything otherwise. Just bung a thread up!
I also have to agree with the "banter" issue, sometimes it can get a bit out of hand, but all we really need to do to combat this is use a bit of common sense, and a few well placed smileys. Done.
I'm the first to admit I'm not great for attending shows and such like, being a minimum hour or so from the nearest members is always an issue when it comes to attending meets, but some of the first meets I went to were in Ipswich and surrounding areas! Unfortunately these days I have more family commitments and (certainly recently, blame my 8 month old daughter) financial limitations which basically shot show season last year out of the window. With some luck I might make at least one show this year though...aiming to make Pugfest for a change, as I've done FCS a couple of times now. Distance should never really be too big a factor in bringing the community together though IMO, but it still doesn't mean we can't be civil to each other online.
Right now though, I look forward to continuing to be a part of this fantastic forum, especially now we're coming together to make it a better place!
Much love to you gays, let's make this year a good one!
