Things will go pear shaped IMO from now on if this is the way it stays, I have just been on for half an hour and I cant get away with it.
Sorry but thats what I think anyway,

I cant put my finger on it Eagle, I think it is cause when I logged on I liked a bit of variation , car banter and other stuff mixed all into one room, it just doesnt seem as good and I ve only been on half an hour, I bet the GD rooms quiet right down now compared to what they are usually like

Was a good mix all together and nice and busy.

I know the site is as busy but i liked it in the one room, where there was always a different reply to read or reply to.

Don't like it either - like to scan through ALL the topics, now got to flick between rooms. Also think it just splits the 'community' here up ! IHMO anyway And you used to know where most people are hanging out - sure one room will become dormant

Don't like it either, I like the car side, but the social chat is pretty good aswell, I think you loose that this way . The "atmosphere" if you can get that on the net lol, is gone

Its just gonna split the community into two sections as said above,

I can see it now in one room you will have..

Stu
Chip
MAD Rod
Martin Hadland
And Im stuck for any one else who talks aboot cars on here
Nicole n Kim
Mike Rainbird


And in the other room you will have..



Mr Brannen
Porkie
Bosch Man
DaveEscos
Smit
Rhys
LammyLama
Tiff




U see what Im getting at, we all know the ones that post funny E Mails n that and occasionally talk about cars, and Rod n people who only like to talk about Tech Essays n that, which is fair enough but the problem is gonna be that u are splitting the whole lot up just because people cant be bothered to look at thread titles they dont wanna see! I mean no one forces u to click on the thread and read it do they, I personally dont like Rod going on about Brunters , but I have to respect that its a public forum and that he probably doesnt wanna read my posts, fair play,problem solved , just put the 2 rooms back together again and dont click on threads u dont want to fucking read

How do you know it will split the community? Do you have a crystal ball perchance?

It's far better how it is now IMO.

Just u wait and see Kop, we cant all be wrong now can we, I understand u were one of the peeps who wanted this room and I respect that but Im telling u it may work but PF will be worse of cause of it, all because u lot didnt wanna sift through any non car banter.
The explanation of the old GD room used to say summit along the lines of any topic as long as it aint offensive n that.
Keep an eye on that poll Kop, Ive looked into my crystal ball just for you

Crap idea this....switching between rooms

Lets see if the PEOPLE who make PassionFord get what they ask for as its obvious this is a very bad decision.

think the muppet one has proven itself well

so you want us to put everything thatrs not car related in the muppet room ???

the banter is good in here but ... you put a post up and in under 30 minutes it can be banished to page 2 with out any problems .. so then you have to look in page 2 then page 3 etc etc .. time consuming ...
this way you know that there is a room dedicated for car related stuff and this one for everything else ..

i have been running 2 pages all day and can honestly say it has not made my job any harder .. or reading the posts that have been put up...
