Sorry Milan, I may not have made myself clear - I know you can't move posts, and I'm certainly not suggesting something which would cause you a lot of work or problems. There's is no need to change the existing headings. All I'm asking for is one more heading to be added, which members could use, as I described earlier, if and when they want to, particularly when fewer members are online, and may have few 'strictly Purple' topics to ramble on about. I can't see any objection to at least giving it a try.nondisclosed_email@example.com (Nighthawk)Thu, 04 Dec 2003 19:35:57 +0000 Re: Niko, Rahul, Milan - could we please have for Christmas....https://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p11244,from=rss#post11244https://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p11244,from=rss#post11244quote:Mr Blobby wrote: Hang on...Milan is one of those people.

Milan I think Nighthawk's suggestion has some merit. I think you would probably agree that there are some people (I won't name names ) who come on here for the sole purpose of chatting to other like-minded people, and the particular topic that the banter takes place on is usually irrelevant. I just feel that the chat is taking a good proportion of posts far away from the original idea that the thread-starter intended. Yes, many threads went way off-topic on the old forum, but they weren't generally dominated by such a small group of people. nondisclosed_email@example.com (Big J)Thu, 04 Dec 2003 14:00:53 +0000 Re: Niko, Rahul, Milan - could we please have for Christmas....https://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p11241,from=rss#post11241https://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p11241,from=rss#post11241You have certain people on at certain times. No reason they shouldnt be able to chat, as they do anyhow....so it may take the post off track....thats better yet! A chat room is interesting, as it's all 'for the moment'. I think it's an easy thing to do, but probably a waste of time here...members, like myself, have messengers availible on our posts and no one using that option. PM and E-mail are seldom used, so a chat room hasnt got a chance...

I agree with Rahul on all accounts. So I don´t see the sense in having a bull crap forum. You may agree with Rahul on all accounts, Milan, but when you quoted him you missed off his final comment: "But perhaps I'm wrong?" I'm very disappointed in your reply. Most topics are turning into bull crap forums anyway - all I'm suggesting is that we have the option of shovelling it somewhere more appropriate, or joining in if we feel like it. It's only one heading, not like I'm asking for a redesign of the whole board. If it didn't work you could always remove it.  nondisclosed_email@example.com (Nighthawk)Wed, 03 Dec 2003 17:45:20 +0000 Re: Niko, Rahul, Milan - could we please have for Christmas....https://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p11238,from=rss#post11238https://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p11238,from=rss#post11238quote:RitchiesHair wrote: Look at the way banter starts, it goes on from remarks in another thread, it doesn't pop up out of nowhere.
