    Well that's a darned good reason to stay here then. I did try Loquax many moons ago, and found it too complicated to be bothered. Too much time spent working out how to use it, find answers, and then getting some odd messages telling me I couldn't do whatever because I hadn't done something else.

    I use both. I only use the forums section of loquax,although the 'quick comps' section on the main site is easy to use. I tend to use MSE for most of my online comping and Loquax for text, some email and regional comps. Occaisionally I do postcard comps. I usually only do them when I have a cheap route of getting stamps like the LLoyds tsb debit card cash back earlier in the year. I also use giftcards such as wh smiths to buy stamps. I like the postcard section on the Loquax forums.
  • I used to use both Loquax and this one, but now I just stick to MSE because for some reason Loquax won't let me log in, everytime I try the screen just freezes, it's been like that for months:confused:
    I'm not that bothered tho as I've had loads of wins from just using MSE:D
    feeling lucky?:beer:

    Have you tried emailing Jason? I have found him really helpful.

    I use both, to be honest I find it very hard to keep up-to-date on here, it's more of an all or nothing situation whereas Loquax is split up into sections so it's easier to dally. They also have a searchable date format which is great. I love the local sections on Loquax and wish there was the same here.

    If I could keep up I would use MSE more as I prefer the forum format but there are so many nice people on both sites that I've got to know, I could never drop one now.

    I am a member but I prefer MSE (everything you'll ever need is on here) plus most of the comps over there are already on here so I don't bother much.

    Hi there. I think that this should be on the discussions thread at the top of the page. This is for comps. I only use MSE, as I can't navigate Loquax easily. In fact, I think that the Loquax bloke is a member of this forum. HTH
