It was sad the number of people i spoke to who have been trying to join the forum but have found it impossible to do--some have been trying for years.I don't know why it is so hard to be accepted but so easy for spam posts to appear.If we want to keep the forum and the meet alive the management of the forum needs improving.

The website gets a yearly
The website gets a yearly makeover but the forum is a tad dated and neglected. It’s very active, informative and has a loyal membership with some amazing contributers and newcomers should be welcomed.

As you say it's been like that for a few years now bph. I don't know where the request to join emails go but it's clear that most of them are ignored.

Agree with BPH. I don't

We've got to know, and become
We've got to know, and become friends with, quite a few people solely because of this forum. Of course now we keep in touch using other means but without the forum the initial contact wouldn't have happened. Social Media is great but I love the sense of community we have here, it's a shame other people can't get involved.
Hopefully when the plans for 2019 get into full swing in January (if not before) the forum will get a bit of attention and promotion so other people can join.
