Good point willow...........................

Although if we did stop posting, maybe the EX PAT'S wouldn't find out a right lot.

There is not enough news in Accrington to keep this forum going I'm afraid, that's when you get people talking about things that THEY want to talk about.
This may seem boring to some people, but, to others it is good reading. I think I'm right in thinking this is what makes the world go round.
As I said, News in Accrington can be very little sometimes............just look how skinny the Observer is getting these days..........

Accyweb is for everyone.... thats it

There is obviously a market for a forum like it is now, as we can see from it's continuing success.

Without the input of a handful of regular posters and thread starters this place becomes a bit sluggish, as it did when Willow was on holiday, A-b was quiet and Less's silence was deafening.

I, like Sarah, love Accy Web, and have found it literally life changing.

Well said rindy...........................It does get a bit sluggish, I personal would like to read something, than nothing at all.

Permit me to thread wander for a moment - the Google-ads are sometimes more entertaining than the threads!

Slinky!! I had no idea you were for sale!

garinda · 07-09-2005, 10:20

She's going 'cheap' most nights in the chatroom.

Oh non, I meant twitter!

Sorry hun, you are never cheap.

only been a member a few months, would think when the site was set up there wouldnt be that many members,and yes it does get sluggish sometimes but what doesnt,all i can add to this is ive made some great mates in a short time and think its a great site, have looked at a few others but havent joined them, in other words this will DO for me.

there wasnt....but once it got going it snowballed.. first day was Roy, Wingy and me

the concept is older

in 1998 i started www.accrington-web.co.uk you can see bits here http://web.archive.org/web/199911171...ton-web.co.uk/

dont lafff....its seven years ago

and hardly anyone around here was on the internet... i had been online 8 years at that point (about 15 yrs online now) anyways.. when i set that up there was only one person who uses accyweb online now around then... none of the rest of you where.. well most wernt... so it died a quick death and someone made me a money offer for the domain so i sold it

Roy started it at a good time when plenty of people around... i have supported roy from day one... love the place.... if i had time i would ahve tried again.. but i didnt have the time roy has hehe

like i say.. accyweb is for everyone.....enoy it

Hells Bells Kipax...have you contacted the Science Museum with this stuff. I'm sure they'd be interested... "An early example of a community chat forum". On second thoughts, though, contact the Natural History Museum...it looks like it could be from the stone age.

KIPAX · 07-09-2005, 11:20

not quite up to your usal standards tealeaf... your slipping

is it old age ?

harwood red · 07-09-2005, 11:41

I absolutely love this site for soooo many reasons and have made many new friends... for me accy forum =

WillowTheWhisp · 07-09-2005, 11:42

I noticed that you set yours up for:

Quote:

A place to meet for people in the Accrington area or maybe you're an ex Accrington resident who wants to share past experiences.

rather than exclusively for ex-pats with residents permitted as guests. Was it Roy who preferred the latter option?

KIPAX · 07-09-2005, 11:46

Roy wasnt there at that time.. Just me and Julie....I dont understand your question.. Are you saying I would prefer somehting different ? its me saying accyweb is for everyone isnt it?
