No worries  :y

Some members want to be very active, which is fine. Some members have lives, and only post when they have a problem - that is fine as well :)

Hello and Welcome.

I must admit I do lurk the other site from time to time (sorry :-[).  Looking in the problems sections for the Omega, the quality and accuracy of the replies are dreadful.  There are some members here, who are very experienced and knowledgeable and should be able to point you in the right direction.

I was very surprised that a PM I sent you was 'edited'.  It took a personal email (lucky you made your email address public) to get this sites address to you.  Not a very personal message!!!

Don't worry about not posting very often, I mainly lurk around and only post from time to time.  Great bunch over here though :y

They have added 'omegaowners' to their word censor (designed for removing swear words etc) so their forum software automatically changes it...

Oh dear.  Take it there is no link in the links section either?

Its not an easy site to find using Google, is there any way to make it easier?
