Sorry i wasn't going to let you get away with it as many other people you have plaigerised from here like Tals posts as service to accyweb to report this & like i said before i was not responsible for other peoples comments or karma deductions from you & the fact you have given all these people in this forum the credit of having no brains & doing it for me - well they didnt they did it for their own reasons & the fact what you did after i exposed you was wrong! You reap the seeds you've sown on here Hatter nobody else so stop milking the pity me vote because once again people on here have had enough of the same old same old & yes they use their own brains too on this! So dont judge people on here by your low standards - you got caught so deal with it. Again hatter theres so many times you can pee the majority of the forum off. End of!! its getting boring !! |

Re: What makes this a good forum
you acted like a silly child because I used your thread and didn't give you credit. Tall gave me permision to use anything of his as he quite rightly pointed out most of it he's taken off the net anyway.
Dave it depends how much you suck up on here. I have no need to suck up, I have friends elswhere.I say it how it is. Miss kitty how can you possibly say my friends are imaginary, you don't know me. You sound like a child in the playground name calling. Hatterstown is an internet site, its fake,a p take, its got no actual residents miss kitty, there are no members so How can I claim to have imaginary friends there. The forums were made obselete by the proboards site. |

Re: What makes this a good forum
Madhatter, it is common courtesy to link to other sites. However, I was not bothered at all that you didn't link back to accyweb - until you specifically said you wouldn't. We have great staff and members here which is what makes it a good forum, both the staff and members can deal with trolls. If I removed the games/chatroom/journal etc.. people would still post, it is not about the features, it is about the posts and the members. If you speak to neal he will tell you that I helped him quite a lot when he was starting burnleyweb - I didn't have a problem with it, he also got a lot of posters joining his forum from here and vice versa - this has never been a problem as people enjoy both sites!
I think you need to re-adjust your attitude and outlook on this forum project. I am not sure you have what it takes to run a successful forum, you somehow manage to make people dislike you quite easily, this means the more work you put into your site the more members your competition will get as they leave you in droves... I don't mean to be insulting with this, I am just being realistic and honest. I have never been to your forum so don't know how you act there so I may well be totally wrong. |

I've already pointed out that I link back in other ways roy. I have no problem with linking off my profile or other lancs sites, sites which are far more likely to get you members. I will not link off my site to here.
My attitude is fine, I'm not the one in this thread giveing abuse. miss kitty for example thinks I should be banned, yet she's come in to this thread of her own accord insulting me. At least mel has issues with me. |

It wouldn't have been simpler to just link and let the mods sort. I DON'T WANT THE HASSLE OF THEM COMING ON HERE. WOULD YOU ADVERTISE TO A STALKER WHERE YOUR GOING . TALK SENSE.
If i'm getting trolls on my forum, why the heck would I link to here and invite them to follow me. The negative karma comments just prove that yopu don't read the thread and and read what you want to read. |

Re: What makes this a good forum
Well i think you have outstayed your welcome your attitude to think one rule for you & another for everyone else!

Like everyone else I'm not privvy to how he apparently upset people in the chatroom, and moaning about karma does mean that he is sometimes his own worse enemy. Reading this thread blind, without knowing the facts, you'd think that the pack mentality was at full force, and attacking a weaker member of the pack. What he did by plagarising your game without asking, was very ill mannered, but my comments certainly affected by him saying anything about me. Sycophancy, is something I'm proud to say I've never had much time for, and find it quite insulting that you think my judgement could be clouded just by someone bigging me up. |

If it's forum etiquette to link back to a site wouldn't it just be more polite to do that hatter, and let Roy and the moderators decide who is a troll. People who you would regard as a troll (usually because they don't agree with you) could become possible members of accyweb. As for distance, Vorlon was from :confused: hmmmm somewhere :confused: can't remember where now lol but he had no connections to Accrington, he just enjoyed the forum, why are you denying others this opportunity? To me it sounds more like you don't want the many people from other forums who you've p***ed off all congregating on one site to compare notes on you. |
Re: What makes this a good forum
Maybe your right Tinks, I don't want people that I've p***ed off on here. The truth P***ed them off on there so why would I want them here, why would they want to come here where I am.
You know there's rivalry tink, you know I dissagreed with a local councillor and he continually got my legitimat posts deleted, so I started my own forum which in turn upset all his and the owners mates. Have a look in the gallery thread for example. Someone turns up with a car at a public show and then doesn't like it when I quite legally display it in the gallery. a show staged for exactly those reasons, fun and publicity. He of course is being awkward jsut for the sake of it and is from the other forum, well whatever if thats what gets him his jollies but I don't want them here. I was linking back. how many more times do I have to say, I was linking back in other ways which I have now deleted. So I was linking back and wasn't denying other people. But I am now. By the way me linking to this site also raises my ranking, the more decent sites you link TO the higher the ranking. Therefore By not linking to here I'm losing out. |
Re: What makes this a good forum
While your on here perhaps you'd answer the first question tinks. what are your most favourite and least favourite parts of the site. Thats all asked. what would you like to see on here.

Re: What makes this a good forum
I have a stepdaughter who likes to be popular. She has made a total bollox of her life so far and she's only 18. She is happy to use people including her own family and friends, but whenever things don't go right whose fault do you think it is... yep you guessed, ALWAYS SOMEBODY ELSES FAULT.
I thought I would bore you all with that because somebody in this thread reminded me of her. |

You carry alot of baggage from life and you carry it over into your posts. To an extent you have been offered advice in this thread but you've chose to think it's just another opportunity for people to have a go at you, it's not the case, people are just trying to point out where your going wrong but you get peoples backs up. |

No you don't want to be popular on a forum, you want a popular forum like accyweb. Accyweb really is a forum to be envied, I only go on a few forums that are of personal interest to myself, they have more members but no-where near as many regular posters as accyweb. The thing is hatter these things don't happen over night, Roy has put alot of (often thankless) work and effort into accyweb, accywebs popularity is all credit to him and mods. Just keep at it hatter you'll get there eventually. |
Re: What makes this a good forum
This site has been running 5 years now so its taken a while to get it to what it is .
A lot of hard work and money on Roys part with a bit of help from us mods its not an instant thing it has to be worked at. So keep at it madhatter . |
Re: What makes this a good forum
I would suggest for somebody starting out with a forum that your first priority is to build up membership. Then you can think of expanding into lots of different sub forums with different focus. What's wrong with a freebie like ProBoards or EzBoard? AccyWeb is an ever evolving and changeing creation. We have had things come and go. You just need to see what your members are interested in when you've got some and then build from there.

Re: What makes this a good forum
Gosh, it all kicked off tonight. You know that if this had happened in the playground you'd all be in detention by now! :D
What makes this a good forum for me is that it's not a kids site or a flirty site (although it has its moments) it's like having a chat with a few mates at the pub! You can't manufacture that though and I think it's quite lucky that this one has turned out like that. |

Re: What makes this a good forum
I want a forum with more features willow, you've got to remember I've got to offer something different to the other forum. Why would they come and post on a forum if they're already on one that they're used to. I'm not trying to get them to stop posting on the other forum, i'm trying to get them to use both. Different topics are important, but I need different topics to the other forum and as I havent got many members It's down to me to find them.
To add more features really needs a server, I can and have done it using free sites but its getting increasingly difficult, msn groups dont do chat anymore so i've got no chat room. I could just use free software php bb which I can add a chat room to if i've got a server or for my main site I could buy v bulletin. 160 quid or lease it 60quid a year i think which i can have a shop and petz on. Are you saying I've got too many categories, or that you think its unwise spending the money incase it doesnt work? I could always go back to proboards and use the bb for another project. |

Re: What makes this a good forum
My point is that if you start out with a simple forum and gain members you can then find out what those members would be interested in and expand from that instead of showing a big empty space where no-one goes into any of the many and various different areas.
However, I have to agree with Gayle. If it's not a rival site what is it? People don't want to join something if there already is one serving that purpose. If Hattytown has a successful forum people are either going to stay there or join yours if they feel yours is better. It would be pointless the same people saying the same things to each other in two different places. |
Re: What makes this a good forum
Suppose, thats if all members are members of both and the exact same topics are discussed by the exact same people so that the threads turn out the eact same way. In reality that doesn't work. If I started this thread today it could have turned out totally different. If I'd started it on hyndburn lite it would have turned out totaly different.
I think by not using hyndburn lite only you are losing out. You see it as a rival, when it could be an alternative with alternative subjects by different people discussed in a different way with different outcomes. Suprise suprise, type hyndburn lite in to google and what do you get. A slagging off post on here. Hyndburn Life??? - Accrington Web If you loiter on Hyndburn - Lite too long , you will be a certified schizophrenic ; all that time sat around , talking to yourself . __________________ ... http://www.accringtonweb.com/forum/f...life-6627.html - 111k - Supplemental Result - Cached - Similar pages Excellent stuff well done. Anyway with all the add on's I hope it will attract people and they'll post but if they don't never mind, It'll just be the poshest most expensive blog ever. Does anyone know about web hosting and file structures etc? |

In order to really understand our attitude to HBC's little baby you really needed to be here when it was launched at some astronomical cost with posters going up around town to encourage people to register and the little man peddling his bicycle hoarding - then we tried to join! That was when the majority of us found it impossible to do so. There were faults on the forum which actually blocked people from registering, or once registered it then blocked people from logging on. Yet some of us soldiered on and did our best to explain to the moderators that the lack of membership participation was due to these problems, not due to lack of interest. We were told to shut up and stop spoiling things and told we didn't know what we were talking about and should be grateful for such a lovely forum! I was one of those who persisted perhaps longer than most because I wanted it to work. I didn't want Hyndburn to look stupid by having a forum people couldn't use. One other member and I spent ages looking at where the problems were and pointing them out to the mods only to be told that they had no admin as such but would consult with the techno whizz who created the forum. However, nothing seemed to happen. I traced the techno whizz myself and actually pointed out the problems people were having. I didn't do it in a critical or cynical manner. I did it in a "please can you help out so people can join" sort of way but I was patronised and told to go away and stop bothering my superiors. The access problems were eventually acknowledge but by that time most of the people who would have joined had lost interest. They did a thing where they invited Greg Pope to come to a specific forum and answer "live" questions from his office in the House of Commons - but they didn't let people just post questions for him to post replies to. They vetted every one first so it took forever and before we got much said time had run out. Here on AccyWeb Greg is a member and posts freely when he has something he wants to say to us and no-one is vetted or censored before they are allowed to reply to him. Hyndburnlife had great potential but unfortunately it simply didn't live up to all the hype. It doesn't help either than the main body of the website has many glaring errors and isn't kept up to date yet purports to be the source of information about the borough. |
Re: What makes this a good forum
Just found it willow, it's hyndburnlife not lite, if your going to slate on it at least spell it right so they can find it.
Found the criticism too, that forum software is crap it does my eyes in. msn's forum software is better than that. Thats their main problem and the fact that the forum is hidden. |
Re: What makes this a good forum
We're not mis-spelling it. It's an in-joke. "lite" as in not much weigh to it, not much going on there.

I had links in signatures on sites up here so I haven't refused to link to here, and I've got good reason not to want links to here on my site. That is not having a bad attitude. The only bad treatment in this thread is to me, I've had my signature removed and been told i'll be banned if I put it back. I've been abused, I've had karma deducted.Then I'm told all this is my fault because of my attitude. That IS having a bad attitude.

Roy and accyweb=popular, sound like a good site to me Madhatter and number 255=unpopular even to it's members! Perhaps the site gets the members it deserves and if it does it can't be Roy or accyweb to blame. Why not go and spend alot (in fact all), of your time improving your site then in a year or two you can come on here and brag about how good it is, just stop telling us about it we aren't interested. |
Re: What makes this a good forum
Why don't you get a life and some logic.
I put a link in my signature because I post on this site. Why should I put a link in my home forum signature just because Ipost on here and have a link in my signature. I go on here blackpoolweb, burleyweb, talkbritain, according to you I have to have a link back to each just because I have a link to my home forum in my signature on each. I'd end up with 24 links in my signature. LOGIC, try using some. A link in a signature is a favour by the site for posting on that site. |
Re: What makes this a good forum
And if you aren't interested why keep looking at my site less. thats not logical either.

Re: What makes this a good forum
Madhatter, you really are unbelievable.
Your signature was not removed because you would not link back to here, you had your signature there for some time and myself and the moderators where not bothered, it's normal for people to have links to their own websites in signatures. Your link was removed because you blatently said you wouldn't consider linking back, I have never come across a fellow webmaster with this attitude before and to be honest that just annoyed me - so your links where removed. I would never come along to another forum and tell the members I'm only here to post and get links to my own forum and there's no way I'll link back to your forum - I would expect to be banned immediately, as you probably would have been on a less leniant forum! And to say that whilst in a thread asking our members for advice to make your own forum better.... |
