In that typical British understatement they have the following posted:
Due to certain circumstances the forum has been suspended for a time while the administrators make some changes.
"Certain circumstances" - Reminds me of the British army commander in the Korean War whose brigade was about to be completely overrun by the Chinese. He radioed to his American higher headquarters that things were getting "a bit sticky." The American did not understand that this was the British equivalent of screaming for help and did not immediately send reinforcements. The Brits took heavy casualties and were nearly wiped out.

Unfortunately this wont happen G96, I did raise this before with Stu on the forum and he is adamant he wants to keep it that way in order that spammers and the like do not register on the forum. Personally I disagree with this policy, the info is given freely and should be freely available, but he pays to run the forum - bandwidth and time etc and I guess its his choice. We have debated it some agree some dont.

I wouldn't even mind so much that an electronic/more convenient donation is necessary before you can post in the UK forum, but asking me to CALL international for a STICKER is pretty silly. What's the harm in letting everyone at least browse the posts? Oh well this isn't a debate it was just wishful thinking.

Thats cool. I like that site. Get a completely different perspective and I like the British jargon ( i used to work a company based in burgess hill UK).

Moock, I only know of one or two people banned from there-and they've been banned elsewhere-so it seems like multiple moderators came to the same conclusion. Anyway, I'm glad to see Stu has the site back up and running. The less about that other stuff the better.
