Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Sorry guys but I have no choice. Without the advertising I cant afford the time and costs of keeping this site online. As it is it runs at a loss considering the hours I need to put into it, but I feel obliged to keep it going as a service to my members who have contributed their own time to the site. Trust me, there have been days when I wanted to switch it off.

I have to abide by these rules.

So thats it, I need to abide by these rule to keep the site going, simple. I know some members will feel its their right to express their views on some controversal topics, but why here?
