In case of the forum going offline (normal maintenance, upgrade, hosting\tech problem) news & info will be available on .... still to be announced.

Thanks

With Musk's despicable behavior, x's reprehensible new policies, a7a10 has left the building. As Twitter(x) turns into a pile of dung, will not associate the forum's name with it in any way.

A new info channel platform (useful in case of offlines, server problems etc) will be chosen, link will be posted.

Well, both GB, particularly the 'despicable behaviour' bit *whistle* *grins* *wink2* *beer*

Actually, was a bit flummoxed until I noticed the 10 year disparity with the posting dates.

Have no idea mate, don't do any social media (apart from this Forum), and don't have a 'smart phone'.  I still have a Nokia brick which makes and receives wireless communications on PAYG.  If I need to make a call, I just ask the other person to call me back as they usually have unlimited minutes on their devices.  I think I've used about £1.00 of call allowance in 6 months (5p per call and text with no requirement to 'top up').

GB our brilliant Forum is absolutely not 'social media'. Perhaps worth a bit of reading about 'FB' etc and their exploitative, insidious methods might reveal the massive differences.
Sure our Forum is very social which is what we want, but it's a very long way from being anything remotely like FB etc.
