	It looks as if GR is going to take up the whole board with it's posts......A clear sign of board hogging if I ever saw one. Methinks they are after board domination. Now correct me if I am wrong but isn't it against some kind of GR ruling about duplicate posts on the same subject. I think they should have a board all to themselves......Oh whoops, they already have :-D

	Why would they need a "Start your family tree week" on here?? Surely if you are using these boards you would have started a tree already?

	You have to admit - It's got 'unknown' members posting on this thread - mainly because they can't access what they've paid for :-D

	RR GR's posts maybe ;-) Wonder if it would work, but not fair on those who visit only sometimes ! It would be nice though if you could mark posts you don't want to read again so they don't clutter up the page each time you visit Regards, Mayfield

	I have to agree with Jax. Those who have just joined the site need to see the 'Start your family tree' stuff on the Homepage not here..... and also on the FB page where quite frankly GR is missing a huge trick,,,, as many of the newbies who post there clearly have no idea where or how to start ( or even that they need to join GR 'proper' ) and are ( often) reliant on experienced members to help them.

	What I find annoying is, GR post these things but never allow any members the chance to post a reply.??? obviously don't want to hear criticism. Also on face book GR only seem to reply when someone posts something nice, they never hardly reply to disgruntled members. George

	How ridiculous ...and I wonder how long they will stay there. Whoever is in charge obviously couldn't care less.

	I have just requested it for review as these posts should have been put on the genealogy board. George

	I own up, it was me who sent day 1 for review.....bloody silly all these posts from GR, as I said, should be on the genealogy board. George

	But we posted at the same time :-D

	Oh dear wonder what the Team will think of having their post sent for review. Will George get a warning ?

	I could care less, GlitterBaby. Gr should get their house in order what with all the problems with this site that they struggle to fix, they also should look in on the boards more and see how disgruntled their customers are, and stop telling everyone of blinking face book how wonderful this site is.
