Oh the irony!

Some things just can't be placed elsewhere. Have you been speeding and got fined? Or spotted a nice new Volvo on the web somewhere? All non-480 messages can be posted in this part of the board.

Yes, it does load, but I think we did the right thing by moving our asses here...

I am still very happy with the speed of this board, discussing has become fun, especially the "mark forum as read" link was terrible... :)

People are still posting on the old board.

Bit like the jaws movie, there's a big arse shark in the water yet you go swimming or surfing.

go figure :P

I know, it's madness.

Daniel, time to lock the old boads completely (including the donation chest) I think...

The donation chest has been locked. Terrible as I cannot retrieve the money donated. Don't know if it's possible to cancel a donation once one is made... (am afraid not). :cry:

I've looked into locking the board for new posts, couldn't figure it out yet, so I will see what I can do soon. :)
