Thank you.
Yes, the uptake has been tremendous so far. Long may it continue.

Re: New forum
Your too diplomatic Leon, an admirable trait. To me it felt like a sterile forum. Like it was just fired together. I never liked how awkward it felt to post there, & hated the aesthetic of it, even though many ex GD forumites were there. I believe it was just a stop gap till we got a place of our own after the landlod had burned the old place to the ground.

Re: New forum
There are many that feel that way, it's understandable but from our side Character Select offered us a place amongst their shows before we had even produced anything and we're grateful for that.Indiana747 wrote:Your too diplomatic Leon, an admirable trait.

That said, this is a fresh start and a place intended for the use and fun of Cane and Rinse fans and this feels like a good move.

Re: New forum
Yep, exactly my sentiments too Karl. CSF was ok for a rental but not worth a purchase.

Re: New forum
Hey Guys! I realise I have been AWOL for months, but hope you'll have me back To cut a long story short, I had some personal stuff going on and blah de blah got into a new (very good!) relationship, trying to sell/buy a house that meant videogames have taken a backseat for me over the last 12 months or so, but now I am getting back into it and my consoles are slowly starting to see some love again.
Also, to be honest, as said above I never really got on the CS forums and kind of lost interest, but I noticed the other day that most of the old GD guys and girls seem to be on here now, so I thought why not dive back in.
Sorry I deleted most people from here from my various friends lists as I wasn't playing games for a while, my apologies for that, I'd be happy to get back into a few game nights now and then.
so yeah.....hello everyone

Re: New forum
Yeah nice to see you back Dante
Personally I didn't/don't have a problem with the Character Select Forum, the only issue I would say was that though it was a 'combo' of various forums, it felt to me that it was predominetly ex-Gamerdork Forumites that used it. Of course a forum is entirely optional, whether people post or not is entirely up to them. Whether a forum suceeds or not is down to it's contributers. I've been on Gamestm's forum since 2006, and lack of posts/frigging spam bots nearly killed it stone dead recently.
I've always enjoyed Forums, and feel even in today's ever-evolving market, there's a place for them. So in conclusion, Go Team! Or something

Re: New forum
Ah go on, I'll add to that. Welcome back Dante.
Re: New forum
Ah Don, I like the honesty and bluntness. But in truth the place was pretty much GD forum but on a lesser scale.Indiana747 wrote:It closed cause it was shite.
Question; is this forum available on Tapatalk? as that`s where i do most of my posting from.
Re: New forum
If I recall correctly, Josh said he was using Tapatalk to look at it a day or two ago in a different thread, so it should be.
Re: New forum
I'm using it via tapatalk.....
Re: New forum
Posted this via TapaTalk.
Re: New forum
Yeah the Forum supports TapaTalk, If your searching for it on there app you can't have any spaces in the name, So it's caneandrinse or cane & rinse.

Welcome aboard our new vessel, Blingo.
Re: New forum
Well, you advertised everywhere but on the old forum, if I recall correctly.
