Seen it all before. People are fickle, some will go, some will come. Overall I think the improvements to this site will be beneficial in the long run.

Thumbs up

IIRC record is 41 from earlier in the week....when SN was down.

I'm really surprised at the lack of support - the speed is up now and it's miles better. Early days still so still some bits to get turned on, frankly I thought the old format was archaic and couldn't be arsed to post. OK, I'm maybe not a prolific poster anyway but it's a damn sight easier now.

All IMHO of course.

I understand that in the future the site will be better, but at the moment it isn't. Any I find the black borders around threads and forums very harsh to look at.

Let them go to SIDC Forums. I was a SIDC member and hardly ever used thier forums, always posted here.

Said it before, but not much has changed here TBH, a few new forums, and the shake up of "for Sale", which is what I think most people are moaning about, but the bulk of the site is as it was, and that is a good thing ,well, to me at least.

I think if some of these people had to run SN and a) come up with the ideas and b) implement them, support them AND do a day job as well, then they might feel a little differently about things.

I cant believe the amount of people wingin about the new look, I have to agree it was long overdue, and it is now almost as good as the PGAC site I frequented about 18 months ago, guess some people like the retro look

I think it's a vast improvement and well done to everyone involved in the development and migration to SN3, it looks the ****, seems faster to me and has had a much needed style overhaul and £25 per year (not got round to sending my check yet but will be in the post soon ) is very reasonable for the membership considering it goes to helping out the people who devote their time and effort into developing and maintaining this great little corner of the web.

Plus, if the fee chaps your **** a bit, get it back in discounts by buying all your fluids, filters, pads etc from the SN shop. Well worth the money as far as i'm concerned.

It's a superb community to be part of and the majority of owners clubs such as this are subsription based. When i first came here i was amazed that there were no restricions to non-SN members

That's my tupence anyhoo
