    I'm happy to pass this suggestion over to MSE for their consideration. The same goes for a potential name change for the sticky thread, if you can all agree on a proposed name I can certainly ask the question.

    I would suggest "Parking Ticket Guide and reference section"

    Why not ask that the newbies sticky thread be in the announcement section instead of the new regulations thing? The new regulations are about 18 months old, so hardly new is it?

    And I do appreciate new things are put into place from time to time, but it would be helpful if the powers that be at mse towers actually asked the regulars of a particular forum what they wanted.

    And finally by taking the sticky threads off the board completely mse has just made it easier for these parking companies to scam people, mse are now aiding these cowboys because nobody will read those threads linked into by crabman, every single one of them are now dead!
    When posting a parking issue on MSE do not reveal any information that may enable PPCs to identify you. They DO monitor the forum.
    We don't need the following to help you.
    Name, Address, PCN Number, Exact Date Of Incident, Date On Invoice, Reg Number, Vehicle Picture, The Time You Entered & Left Car Park, Or The Amount of Time You Overstayed.

    I'm seriously hoping MSE will agree to restore Coupon-mad's newbies thread given how helpful it is and the amount of effort that has gone into it.

    Have you requested this Crabman or does it have to come from Coupon Mad herself? I'm happy also to make a formal request (and no doubt others will too) if it will help.
