Hi all, came on forum when it was brand new and been meaning to check it out again since... and am so pleased and impressed with how its taking off, its like having all your fave people in one place! Not been on forums much lately, think not been feeling too chatty cos worried about a couple of friends with health problems, but going to browse all the threads now and will def contribute more in future. Well done to all involved!

;D Congratulations, you are the lucky winner of this hour's rep point from me.
Most of it is Firefox's work, he's been beavering away behind the scenes tweaking the standard forum package, adding details, moving threads etc.
And we have some great members here and it really does feel like its just one big group of friends. We've picked up some newbies to forums who have just slipped into forum life so easily that they are now part of the furniture.
It's great to be able to check the forum every hour or so and find a good few posts since the last visit, it's definitely fast moving.
And.... (praps this is tempting fate so I shouldn't say this)... everyone is being very nice to each other. No cross words at all which makes being part of it all so good.
Big thanks to everyone for all contributions, keep them coming, enjoy the site, and remember that this is a democracy and that as members you will have the opportunity to be involved in various aspects of decision-making either in "managing" counties, voting in polls, or making suggestions as to improvements, so that it is everyone's forum and no-one feels afraid to speak out or to voice their view.

To the left of each post you make there's a box with your details in, and at the bottom of that box it says Reputation. Instead of liking posts, you can give someone a reputation point. You can only give one rep point per hour.

Can everyone give them? I can see where it says reputation...but cant see how to give one (metaphorically speaking!)

Morning all - hope you are feeling a bit better today OH. Welcome to the forum Anne, lovely to see you on here.
You could always use the 'Virtual Campfire' thread as a kind of 'Who's Awake'. It's always cosy and warm all night as several peeps pop it and top it up with logs. ;D
