Re: New Wave
Thanks for the replies and feedback everyone - I think sometimes being able to get things off your chest can be a big help.
I am happy to extend access to the members-only group (with PM access) to anyone who has reached 250 posts. This'll save them having to wait three months and by making so many posts, we should have a fairly good idea whether they are genuine or not. Plus if we feel it is getting abused we can always take a look at things again in the future.
If anyone has reached 250 posts and wants to take advantage of this, just start a thread in the Contact Admin section and I'll sort it
Just closing this thread now as I think everyone has had a chance to have their say, and I think we don't need anymore threads discussing similar in future either - as it's not fair on the new, or old members - all of whom are welcome here - and I'd rather us try to focus on the positives than the negatives, thanks
