Not enjoying it at all, feels just like 2010. Also, started the career mode as a player, forget what its called, and I cant see how you gain points and spend them on attributes any more? Has it changed?

sadly, normal rules apply, but you can swear as much as you want in your head before posting...

Yeah, but we'll increase the cost to £10, just for you

Steve has made some pretty sizeable changes to the way the server is run. We hope this will now solve all issues related to the forum going down. But we want to know if its going to work, and preferably not on a match day, so we need your help. We would like to do a test tomorrow, at 1pm. We will start a thread and need as many of you as possible to refresh (hit F5) and post on it, as if it were a match day, we really need you to be as busy as possible with it. If you are able to help, can you please reply to this thread. If you're a lurker (someone who doesnt really post) we'd really appreciate it if you can help too. Ill be starting a sticky thread just before 1pm tomorrow, that will be the thread to post as much as you can and refresh as often as you can on. So, can you help? thanks

Thats the plan

no.

pff, yeah, as if!

Cos he wants no part of it, i've locked him in the SWF cupboard and thrown away the key. THIS IS MY PLACE NOW!

In order to jump ship, someone else would have to want me ....

It also says to me that the mods had had enough too and perhaps this was a good time for everyone involved to change scene

As was mentioned earlier in this thread, all mods handed their resignation in AFTER they were made aware of the changes, so you'd have to ask them for their own personal reasons

Ponty told him

The lovely gf (aka Hot *****) is after a new car. She currently has a Galaxy but costs her a bomb in fuel. It needs to seat 6, but a 7th seat would be handy. She doesnt want a people carrier any more. Im not really too clued up on this sort of thing, my initial suggestion was Peugeot 307, my dad has one and MPG is great and seats 7. So, over to you guys, she has £3500 to spend. Thanks

Im pretty disappointed that two ex-mods would essentially lie to you to us not showing appreciation for their efforts. I've no idea WHY they would lie to you, that's something you need to ask yourself and perhaps them.

Which is what we are doing

Think the appropriate thing is to continue this chat at http://www.saintsweb.co.uk/showthread.php?25588-Time-for-a-fresh-start

Agreed, and changed

Robsk, I think this thread would also be the perfect place to discuss those issues.

Yes, this is open to FULL members only. This is only because ALL current moderators and admins have paid their fee

We would like to have the new team in place by Nov 1st

Thats exactly why we want to hear other peoples opinions

No there specifically wont be voting due to the opportunities for people to "take the ****", if you see what I mean.

As it has been a topic of conversation for a few weeks now, myself and steve have been talking regularly about ways to improve the forum. Obviously, we have 2 main issues. The reliability of the forum and the running of the forum. With regards to the former (believe it or not) we are still addressing this on a DAILY basis. Today the forum suffered no downtime at all (yes, maybe it was quieter), but we will continue to assess things after each matchday and have many different plans to keep the forum up properly. Secondly, the running of the forum. We've also talked about the many different angles for improving things, taking into consideration the many complaints. We feel that perhaps a fresh approach to the moderation of the forum is required, and we want you as users to be part of that. The plan is as follows: Every 6 months, we would like users to apply to become moderators, we are interested in where they think we have gone wrong as a team over the past few years, how you would do things differently etc. If you feel you would like to become a moderator, we invite you to reply to this thread with your ideas. If we feel you would make a good, unbiased moderator, we will let you know. We of course would like to thank the current moderator team for their efforts since we started, their assistance has been completely invaluable and they are welcome to apply along with everyone else, but we felt it best to have a clean start.

Ill probably try to get the announcement up tonight, to stop conjecture.
