Just for info... in case you spot it

Barclaycard 0% for life has now gone - all posts in Credit Cards

Does anyone know a way to ... has now gone - all posts in I wanna

Your Tips has now gone..... all posts in .... shop but don't drop (a bit sad this was one of the first forums, but its past its use by date. I put the posts in shop for convenience, though some don't fit - but most are old)

Warnings and rip offs has been moved into the anger and mirth section

and the Does anyone know a way to category has now gone

There will be more pruning and changing to come. I want less main boards than there are now and more child categories, i hope about 10 more boards will go. Less categories and duplication makes it easier for people to see where to post

    I like the layout of the new forum, Martin. Think you are doing the right thing getting rid of some of the less popular boards like 'Does anyone know how to...'

    Thanks for all the hard work you and the team have put in over the past couple of weeks! :)

    Still trying to get used to the new technology though! Showing up my lack of technical expertise! I'm also missing my undecided smiley- used to use that one quite a lot. Other than that, I think the changes have been for the best. Thanks again. Jo.

    Don't worry new smilies are on the list of TTD (though admittedly they aren't that high up the priorities)

    I just wanna say - I think you are doing the right thing with your pruning - the boards are unwieldy because of the number of categories - and I don't think I have looked in half of them yet!

    It would certainly make it easier. I'm sure that there are more people than me, who were only getting the hang of yabb before the switch. Now we have to learn a whole new language! It will get better as we go along, but there will always be someone who needs help with the software.

    ps, I see the "how do I thread", has now been started. Excellent!
