Re: For The Attention Of Mick & Accyweb
I really can understand anyone saying people are leaving and its a closed shop and there's a Mafia. Has anyone took the trouble to watch the membership count at the bottom of the opening web page, as conservative estimate I'd say the membership goes up by about 15 per week and can't think of many leaving. I know very few people on here, would know them if I bumped into them in the street, but on the whole they're a decent bunch on here, okay you get a clash of personalities, just like any walk of life and Accy Web does mirror everyday life and that's why I like it saw much

IMO,& slate me if you think i'm wrong but sometimes i've found the web a bit 'clique',especially amongst members who've been on for years or have introduced close friends,using christian names instead of user names,dropping in info that is alien to those not in the know(if you will)e.g spouses/kids names.Me,i'll carry on regardless,but some newcomers might think otherwise & maybe thats why a few members are'nt posting as much as they used to.Sometimes members need to lighten up a bit,there's one who who seems to take exeption to all who does'nt agree with his comments.I realise some of the stuff on here is meant to be taken seriously,but getting the huff & quitting beats me.Give it a rest for a while if you feel you must.Mez, this is'nt a slight on yourself as we've met (albeit briefly) & i understand your frustration at trying to round us all up.Resign your post,if you must,but don't desert the web

Re: For The Attention Of Mick & Accyweb
I have been posting on here for 4 years and I can categorically say there is no Accy Web Mafia or clicque. There are certain members who make life hard work for the mods and there are certain members who are just a pain, but that's life. If you don't like what you get here, make your complaints, if it isn't resolved, then go elsewhere. We can't please everyone; and strangely enough we do actually have social lives outside of Accyweb so don't be suprised if it takes a couple of hours for your report to be answered.

When I've had a problem it's always been resolved pretty pronto.
When I first joined I always imagined you all in a little dark room together, moderating away 24/7.
I think the moderators on this site do a pretty amazing task, for little thanks.
Thank you.

A lot of people use my first name cos they cant spell shillelagh ... its easier to use my first name rather than type shillelagh ... plus you can imagine what some of the spelling mistakes are ........ and that started in the chatroom ...
Oh and i do agree with cashy and rindy ... mods do a lot of work for little thanks ... yes i've been hauled over the coals a few times ... and ive argued with them ... but do still agree with cashy and rindy ...

Re: For The Attention Of Mick & Accyweb
Im used to it cashy .... ive had so many versions and plus what ive been called in my lifetime ... mum had some crackers ..... ok whos brewing up i need a brew ... you brewing cashy?
By the way....... i do answer to anything and everything ... cashy, tinks, rindy, spuggie (if you get hold of him), and the rest will all vouch for that!!!!
Can also say i was worried at the first meet i went to ... and rindy agreed to meet me outside the stag .... and he introduced me to near enough everyone ....

I've given up ever trying to get into the chat room , each time I try it says " newer version of Java applet reqd" (that doesn't work ) even after following the instructions in an old thread about clearing everything and loading the old version it didn't work , so I've given up, put it down to there being a special link somewhere which only 'special' members know about.
