Title: This forum really pigs me off arggggg
Post by: markspark on 09 January 2011, 13:52:16
I have been a member of this forum for some time now i have had a lot of my questions answered here by very helpful people here, nearly every post entered by myself and others gets a good response and this is done very soon after the post has been made. What really pigs me off is that when i go on other forums the response is very slow replies and the answer to the problem is never there. So guys my little rant over let’s keep setting a president keep up the good work  :y

I belong to two other car forums both related to old Fords. One i hardly ever go on but visit folks homes & see them at monthly meets, the other i have contact with on the forum but have never met any of them, although i may well do this year.
  I've always marvelled at how this forum has grown from it's infancy & still continues to do so. Initially it's all about Omegas. Yes we all love them but when i bought my first one & found this place at least 4 years ago? Who would've thought a bid daft Vx/Opel would be so popular?

   I remember late at night in a field at one of the meets an admin, think it was TB saying "We never thought it would get so big". Don'rt think any of us did early on! :y

funny, only a few days ago I was thinking who started oof and what were their original intentions?  Did they ever think it would get to this stage. :) :) :)

I'm not experienced with other forums, and if I am no longer an owner of a meg I would still say excellent work to all moderators and this is I'm sure an invaluable sight for tech q's and place for frjiendly banter. :y :y  :y :y :y

OOFSPEAK is for late on in a field somewhere...anywhere, hardly matters by then. We usually can't remember it which is why it's new & fun every time we do it.
    Does'nt translate well on screen though, must be all the food we eat???? ::)
