Well at least you have given this a go, what is it you don't like? Have you tried the various views? To be honest I don’t like being told what to do, the fact Marions was closedown I find unforgivable, free speech is fundamental for me and to deny County supporters the means to express themselves in the manner they want is frankly fascist, call me a remoaner if you like, it’s ok. As to this board. I posted very early on that it’s to fussy, avatars, newbie, stars by the name, all pointless and take up to much space. I don’t mind change either but it has to be change for a reason! For me Marions isn’t broke it doesn’t need fixing. It’s a personal preference. I don’t like Broccoli so I don’t eat it. I don’t like Rugby so I won’t watch it. I can’t stand Morrisey (depressing sorry Ben) so I don’t listen to him. I prefer a chest band to stripes. I think Marinons is better than yellow. Just the way it is lads, sorry. Give it back you nazi bar-stewards. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 clearly a wind up right?! |

FFS  this again?? Yeh appears that way... when I see a subject that irks me, I just leave it alone.... Just saying like.. I don't understand. You're usually posting about the change of format. Or are you claiming the change doesn't irk you? |

Well to be fair I am usually posting about MMB should be open. Assume (seemingly incorrectly) that your FFS post was against seeing more yet more board space about MMB. Enjoy your evening..

So I wouldn't condone some of the language used above, but it would be good to have a date for when Marions is reopening. I miss the place.  |

No later than June 9th. Some major factfinding going ahead in the 3rd extended week. Obviously crucial...

I can see why people might prefer one format to the other.
I can't see why anyone would be massively bothered either way.
I can see why the admins might only want to look after one board.
If anyone's bothered enough about the other format they should be allowed to admin it.
Some people think we'll come out of Coronavirus with the world a better place because people have had the chance to get things in perspective. They haven't looked on here.

Well at least you have given this a go, what is it you don't like? Have you tried the various views? TRE and suedehead I will probably use both boards depending on what’s being discussed but like many I much prefer the old format, for someone not PC savvy like me it’s much simpler and basic and its evolved over a very long time to what it is now, which I accept for many especially those under 50 is far too basic and boring. I really do dislike the format of this far technically superior board. All the "bells and whistles" are to me huge negatives but obviously to many others these are huge positives and they simply cannot understand why we "dinosaurs" could possibly not want change! But it’s not wrong to be a Luddite and not what change its just an alternative! It’s our opinion, and even if some don’t like it or understand it they shouldn’t criticise it or make fun of it as has on occasions happened. I would suggest many of the old guard are very angry you guys for unilaterally closing the other board irrelevant of your reasoning, at this moment in time it wasn’t forced on you by Boardhost. It forced people to post here or not at all and that is why for some "they haven’t given it a go", call it sour grapes call it what you want it doesn’t take away from the fact you have alienated a lot of people such as Dosser, Matty and scb which is very sad. Ask yourselves why this site has existed for many years but the old site continued as it did? There has always been choice hasn’t there? When there was choice this site got nowhere near the hits it gets now but that doesn’t mean it’s now universally liked or wanted, it’s out of necessity for many, here or nowhere! Some people didn’t want change and they shouldn’t be castigated for that but unfortunately it is what has happened. Some have posted "it’s just a message board FFS, get over it" etc etc but contact through The Yellowboard is to many a very important part of their lives believe it or not and your timing was very unfortunate given Covid lockdown. You have I’m sure unintentionally created a split in the County family when I’m sure you wanted and probably expected the reverse! Time now not to retaliate or seek retribution but just to get back as soon as possible to how it was with all the odd ball debates and bickering that went on. You are running both sites and when we go back to how it was, people can visit one or the other or both boards, so please leave that choice to individuals to decide no one should make that choice on their behalf. You will know how people have valued your "experiment" once you unlock the old board. For those who don’t want to use the old format they will obviously not visit the old site, it will rightly so be their prerogative. I expect as is usual I will find few on here who will support my opinion and comment on the subject, I’m past caring and won’t be entering into discussion about it so Nik,Stranded,Imposter,PSP et al I’ll leave it with you guys to input as you feel appropriate  Thanks Marion |

I can see why people might prefer one format to the other. I can't see why anyone would be massively bothered either way. I can see why the admins might only want to look after one board. If anyone's bothered enough about the other format they should be allowed to admin it. Some people think we'll come out of Coronavirus with the world a better place because people have had the chance to get things in perspective. They haven't looked on here. Hedleyverity, Even though you cant see why others are bothered some massively the fact is they are! The admins dont have to look after both boards, its very much their decision and desire to keep control of both boards ,scb has offered to take the old board off their hands but that offer hasnt been accepted. The world wont be a better place sadly ,and we have Brexit and we are told potentially the worst recession for 300 years with unemployment 10% and upwards to face.So as soon as the old board reopens the sooner these types of thread will be over, no doubt something else will replave them though  Hope this clarifies for you |
