    This is probably a really daft question but... who is Fred? I keep seeing that name in this thread.
    Thanks :)

    Fred is just a name we give to the thread (thread/Fred - geddit?) so when you see Solvent Soon (aka Spoon) saying something about chaining Fred up for the night, it just means keep the thread on the first page of the threads list by bumping it.

    Welcome on board, by the way, the more the merrier!

    haha - now I get it! thankfully 'Fred' isnt a real person. I was getting concerned there for awhile! :)

    Thanks for the welcome too!

    You lot move fast! I reloaded the main board, clicked into a thread, found a spammer and reported him, then on checking his name for more posts he'd already been and gone! Good work :beer:

    Sometimes they go very quickly, Reya, sometimes they hang around for a while, it all depends how many people are around to press the button.


    And hello everyone, hope you've all had a good day:D
