So if you selected, say, MTB General, here, you'd get a notification email every time someone posted?
I'll look into it, but it does sound like you'd get a lot of email from the busier areas.John Stevenson0 -

I wasn't thinking of the email notifications, just the orange new post indicators.0 -
Couldn't you have a seperate forum page for Charity rides?Where'd that bloody Deer appear from?

I just noticed that my membership date has moved forward about 4 years and I've lost about 5000 posts? Any way this can be remedied or do I have to start again at the bottom?Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..0

Im in no way saying that what you guys have done is rubbish, to merge so many sites and forums together takes a long time, a lot of code and some serious hard work. The end result is obviously what you wanted to achieve. One central site to feed the needs of mtbers of all disciplines. I cant help but feel that you have lst the edge that all the individual sites had. Now youve got to scan through long pages of links to get to what you want to see. Also from having a look on the forum earlier i saw about 155 members, consdiering this is meant to have merged around 4 sites and forums that isnt very many.
I myself like the idea of a site for all mtb disciplines but i think it could have been better if it split into sub categoreis of the different sites it has merged as well.0 -
I agree :? :?: , although it's better than it was :idea: :arrow:"With just a little luck

Quite. But if people ask to be deleted, we're deleting them.
Last time I looked we were putting on about 500 new forum members per week.John Stevenson0 -

i see i thought you were on about the side cropping by the advert.
the top cropping of the Quote button is known and iirc appeared when the two tone forum was done.
i have the same images but it does not effect the usage of the board?"Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

No doesn't effect usage just something I spotted with my new pc, can't say I noticed it with the old one.'08 Stumpjumper FSR Pro

Is it BikeRadar policy or just one particularly hard-to-please mod who decides that a cheeky comment or (attempted!) joke should be deleted from a thread?
I say this because any attempt at levity or raising of a smile seems to be greatly frowned upon (removed!) unless the whole thread is light-hearted from the start.
This does not mean offensive remarks of any kind, just a bit of aor
kind of remark. Someone there has no sense of humour but seems to make up for it with an over-zealous sense of piousness that would make a Quaker proud. I'm sure that it's happened to others as it's happened to me 2 or 3 times now and I always ensure that my input is suitably clean but it is missing when I later catch up with the thread. :roll:
One of the main complaints about the new site is that it has lost it's sense of 'community' and fun and this kind of modding only strengthens that general belief. It may also explain why people feel this, if any attempt to lighten the mood is dealt with in this manner?
It's beginning to get annoying... :x
I can understand to some extent not wanting to end up quite like BikeMagic but it's getting more like being on STW and noone wants that!
On an upside, the Commuting section is becoming one of my favourite stops for it's info and having the most 'community' feel of the whole forum.
Well done for that but let's not lose the humour from the forum, it should be an intrinsic part of any forum, especially one based on something as fun and life-affirming as cycling in all it's various forms. It's one of the main reasons I now see the other site as my first stop and 'home' although I still check this site at least twice per day.
Thanks,

Hi GT,
I agree with that, like you I transferred over mainly from the 'WhatMTB' forum.
When I first saw the new forums, I couldn't believe there was one dedicated to commuting!?!
I guess its friendlier because its less cliquey and subject to fashions than other disciplines. You're less able to say "YOU NEED TO SPEND AT LEAST £800 ON A FULL SUSS", theres people on hardtails, roadies, cruisers, recumbents etc? travelling 2-25miles each way.0 -
Alright, I've realised the problem... it's me, obviously!
The powers that be seem pretty good at replying to questions from other members but have been too busy to answer the only post on a "discuss it with us!" thread for over 3 days...
Well at least that tactic is a leveller as I am now losing my sense of humour, too. A civil response in a sensible time frame was obviously too much to expect.
Thanks Gambatte for reading and replying to the message (at least someone did!).
I still think that the forum as a whole and the Commuting section, in particular, has lots of good things going for it. It's just a shame that queries and/or criticism are dealt with by the mods by ignoring it until it goes away.
Sorry for the tone but my initial post was polite, manners cost nothing but someone here must be bankrupt... It's just rude.

I've not responded to your question because, having not seen it happen, I'm in no position to comment on it.
It is not BikeRadar policy to delete jokes from threads, and I wouldn't have thought any of the other mods and admins would do it without good reason.
Where was it posted? What was it?0 -
please bring cycling+ back this is total shite and i mean that in a nonconstructive manner.
whoever thought of this up wants sacking?0 -
Hi inmatecp - i see you can log in now then...
Cycling Plus won't be coming back, so it's probably best to suggest (constructively) what improvements you'd like to see to this forum. Ta0 -
I find this forum very helpful but who agreed to allow the ad from Capital One on here? How annoying it is that flashing when your trying to read the posts!!!!!!!0

In error I posted the same message 3 times in Road - Training "Junk Mileage" There is an edit/delete facility but I cannot see how you can delete the whole message. Could you please advise and clarify same on the forum. Thanks Mike0

sorted for you.
do you not see a X next to the edit button?"Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

DOH!!
Yes I can see the X button now.
I only got as far as the edit button and because it states edit/delete I assumed that to delete the post you had to click on that button and access delete from there. Thanks0 -
It's really very annoying to be sent an email saying there is a new reply to a topic on which I've posted-press the link, to get to your site, which then says "The topic or post you requested does not exist2
This also happens on some topics when you press the last page number
I suggest you get basic things like this right....a lot of the people who were on here have gone, and there must be many more like me, thinking of going“It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best..." Ernest Hemingway0 -
Hello Ken,
Apologies for this glitch.
Just to let you know, we are improving the site and forum on a weekly basis. This bug is known to the development team and they are working on a fix.
Thanks
