    Hi all, apologies for the delayed response. As mentioned above, you will be unable to add a signature until you come off the newly registered user group.

    For those who have posted above, I have manually removed you from this group so you should have regular forum access now and be able to add a signature (largely because I couldn't remember the exact post count/time frame for this to happen automatically!).

    Please drop me a PM with any other issues/questions.

    Cheers.
    Let's see if it works... yep! :) Many thanks.

    Advise please this is a screenshot of my Control Panel and then Usergroups, nothing selected and still no Sig to select, I take it one has to be selected ans it isn't the newly registered one :)

    [img][/img]I%20take%20it%20we%20have%20to%20use%20an%20online%20service%20for%20images,%20no%20direct%20uploads

    I take it we have to use online services for images on this board, no direct uploading?

    Was going to show options on User Control Panel :(

    Thanks for getting back to us so quickley, we are all just finding our way around right now.

    Well, I was surprised how long it actually lasted to be honest, numbers were definitely declining and most people were open to the fact they never actually bought MBR and/or read MBUK instead!

    Input from MBR themselves was virtually non-existent, that seems to be better over here perhaps?

    Anyways, I'm Neilio1978, formerly just Neilio from MBR.

    Now can Steve and PI (or is it back to ibbo?) get back to arguing as I'm having withdrawal symptoms...

    :D

    You say that, but the majority of the activity on here isn't actually in the MTB forums, the bulk of the traffic is either in the Road or Off-Topic forums. So I'm hoping the MBR crew can liven things up a bit!

    I'm back!

    I did contemplate using a more anonymous username, but I have nothing to hide, and it does provide continuity.

    I will update the Sherwood Pines Forum Ride as soon as I find out where it was put.

    My user name has now changed from ibbo68(PI) to Sniper68.
    After 10 years I thought it was time for a change!

    Re Signature, I do not have the option even though there is radio buttons for including sig with every post, etc.

    I take it it should look a bit like 4mins 24 sec into this terrible video...

    Health warning - Dont watch any other bits of it!

    There is mention of uploading images directly, is this facillity avalable to us yet?

    I'm another refugee from the MBR Forum. Only the second time on this site, still wandering around. Took me a while to register as I was abroad and I broke the charger for my laptop and then suffered from a Microsoft "upgrade" that effectively put me out of action until I paid someone to undo what had been done. :shock:

    Anyway, I'm glad to be here now! :)

    I’ve had a couple of topic reply emails but the forum isn’t there so I’m guessing they’re old ones sent on the day it closed.

    WTF it's back?
    Maybe the FB page idea has failed?

    Just PM'd Simon on the MBR Forum and got this reply:-

    Paul I have no idea what is going on but it shouldn't be live.

    I should be taking this seriously but I can't help but giggle –*the MBR Forum is indestructible! And so it should be!

    Xendi emailed me to give me a heads up so not only has this made me laugh but I hadn't heard from him in ages!

    Best wishes

    Simon

    Strange things afoot :lol:

    Strange indeed.
    I can access the MBR Forum on my laptop but not on my phone :?:
    There's at least 4 other Ex-Members who can also access it.
    Maybe it's a sign.......

    I was Alan77 on the old forum.

    Glad to have found everyone here.

    I only found out it closed before xmas and I found this thread after searching and found this place, I was surprised the old site closed more so that it did in May, I am sure I had been in since May, I couldn't have done though.
