Money Savers Arms
Last ooorders!… We’re sorry but for now, due to resources, we need to close the Money Savers Arms including Discussion Time.
It’s not easy to write this. We love the forum, but we also have a job to do to protect it, our users and MoneySavingExpert, and at the moment, with all our resources focused on Coronavirus information, and all the team at home, we don’t feel we have the resources to do a good enough job.
For four months, we’ve been struggling to cope with the huge volumes of messages we’ve been getting from Forumites – many of whom are in desperate and dire straits with their finances. The team have been working all hours to try and keep on top of it. At first we thought it’d be a short sharp spike, but it isn’t, it’s continuing, so we have had some difficult choices to make about prioritisation.
Unfortunately in, and likely because of, these stressful times, the Forum team have also been receiving an increasing number of complaints about posts made on the Money Savers Arms and Discussion Time. The team have done what they can to try and walk the tightrope of balancing all the various interests, but for now we need to draw a line under this and temporarily close this Board, so we can keep the key, MoneySaving boards – where people are supporting each other through this crisis - running smoothly.
We know this board is important to you, but as the MSE stance has been forbearance throughout this crisis, now we ask that of you. We’re sorry. Of course you can post on other boards, but we’d ask you to stick to the subjects of those boards, and not use them as a surrogate Money Savers Arms or Discussion Time. And as always please be kind and friendly to each other, especially any newbies.
Thanks
MSE Forum Team

New model is faster and more reliability surely?
Many things I am not understanding about here!
In some country, still have steam locomotive!

I think that if someone doesn't share your passion then they cannot explain it to you.
If they do share it then there is no need to.
Judge people by their achievements, not by their mistakes
But each to his own.
People mourn the demise of lots of inanimate things.
Cars, lorries, tractors, buildings, the list is endless.
Personally I find it difficult to get excited about any locomotive from after the steam era.
Similar with vehicles, anything made after about 1970 isn't all that interesting to me.
I think so i understand. Like this maybe
I know we each enjoy different things.

This is as much the beginning of a new era as the end of an old one - the last of the three main UK rail routes to be electrified.

It's all relevant.
