    Bloody hell, lol. I was a member of that Forum, joined in 2018, posted 15 times and then left and joined here.

    The URL for here is set to always save as the URL for TFF in posts and messages over on TFF (it's a handy little rule thing in the admin panel for using to stop words like c**t being used when you've got young people who use the site)

    If you're letting people know where everyone is sheltering during their storm then you need to be inventive about how you write it in messages or posts - pop some random spaces in with instructions about how to type it. Bold, Italic or underline should bypass the rule too (keep that to yourselves and it's not for use here to use the C word please :laugh:)

    I haven't been able to log in over there for a couple of weeks even when the page does render (badly).

    I've never seen an exodus from one forum to another like this. I know it's only really the L2 people, but it's pretty much everybody.

    It's sad to see a forum we've existed alongside for so long get destroyed by p1ss poor management like this :( we've had our own 'bought by assholes' and damaged things happen in the past here. It's why when the admin team finally got the opportunity to just take it over and keep it going out of our own pockets we jumped at the chance :shrug
    We hate adverts, we're far too old and lazy to want to make a business out of it, we just like to hang out here and talking football and stuff :)

    To be honest I'm staggered that place is still running. TB (rather apt name as I think I'd rather catch TB then speak to him again) completely ruined it. Seen it was sold in Feb 22 and he loves to mention how much he sold it for - doesn't deserve a penny of that money tbh but there you go.

    Much much better over here because of the owners who genuinely care so much about this site.

    The L2 forum was the main hub of activity over there and with that gone it's like a ghost town over there now, I'm suprised that there are still some L1 posters there who haven't made the journey across over here. It's not that difficult.

    I dare not give too much information in case of being sued. However, the original owner of that forum lost out, big time.
