Bit dead...

[bigbaddave]

Anyone else had PM's from Dan or noticed the bumps on really really old threads? Is this places doomed?

 

[shanky887614]

i think so, dan has made more posts in the last couple days than most members

 

[bigbaddave]

I noticed, I ain't been on for a while but things seem to have gone downhill, shame used to be good crack it did

There's a few people missing, where's Trev? I like him, I'm not too bothered about some of the banned members as they were mainly rude and aggressive.

 

[bigbaddave]

I spoke to Trev today. He is fine

How many did this affect ?

 

[bigbaddave]

Dan, can I ask why this has been moved please?

Enough to make the forum dead enough to have to be supplemented by resurrected thread spamming.

Dan, can I ask why this has been moved please?

It wasn't Dan, it was me and it was moved because it's not an electrical question thread and didn't belong in the General Electrical forum.

I made a post here explaining why there's members who are n longer around. http://www.electriciansforums.co.uk...lectrical-forum/102167-quiet.html#post1101558

was fun reading about industrial and distribution side. now seems to be mostly sheds and metal consumer units and if my course is enough to be qualified...
plenty of electricians and engineers are grumpy (may be part of the trade?) and since is easy to get banned from here then is better to keep quiet...

He got banned along with a lot of the other knowledgeable members not very long ago

Who told you that? He didn't get banned, his account is open and active if he chooses to use it.

 

[uksparks]

I didn't think he got banned, maybe Mrs Trev is sick of him living on this forum like Miss Uksparks is.

The forum generates more revenue from ad clicks by having more new members joining up and more five week wonders scrolling through endless threads. Get rid of the experienced guys providing good advice in a few threads and get more threads going where the blind can openly lead the blind without fear of getting ripped to pieces and it opens up more space for ads, thus more revenue.

It's just a business decision. One that will ultimately leave this place in the same category as the screwfix forum. Just a place for poorly trained and inexperienced house bashers to tell other poorly trained and inexperienced house bashers where they're going wrong.

Want proper advice? The other side is the place to be now.
