people don't like it...are gonna leave etc.

Yet in the fullness of time they inevitably get used to it and approve...til the next time it happens lol.

I think this latest update is the best yet.........(hurray...no more blinky a to z's whooooooooop)

I doubt I'll be here for more than a few weeks longer as I'm aiming to take a break for the summer...and finances will be dependant on whether or not I'll renew further due to the price increases (disgraceful imho) BUT if i do disappear it won't be due to the new format....BUT i NEVER say never re coming back....so well done GR...you have clearly listened to what lots have said and acted upon it.....*begrudgingly impressed* x

Hi Muffy :)

I'm more impressed with GR than I've ever been. I never thought they were that bad although I didn't like the time issue which is thankfully resolved.

Whats the news about the price increases?

I can't complain about the prices. I've been on a six month membership ever since I deleted my original membership account and this time I got it cheaper than last time.

I certainly can't complain about the price for mine this year. I have been on continuous since I joined and got a discount this year and it was cheaper than last year so well done GR for that. :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

It actually feels like a new site altogether :D

I only have one problem and thats because of my avatar page fault.. I want one !!! :-( I do appreciate that support will take some time to resolve it tho, so I dont mind waiting. :-)

As for the moaning minnies, you cant please everyone all of the time, and for some, you can never please. :-(
I for one will use the boards more again. The board merge should ensure the boards actually move & stay interesting. The old boards were dire, posts last replied to early morning, still on page one that evening. :P

And thank gawd all the quizzes are now on one board :D

hi everyone, well what can i say. i havent been on for a few days and when i come back omg what happened?

im all for a makeover but im still finding my way about. i have been on continuos membership since i joined and got a good discount in feb when i renewed, so got a good deal.

i suppose after a month or two we will get use to the changes, but some of us get use to one system and and prefer it that way.

i do agree about putting all the quizzes on one thread as some of the long standing ones were a bit annoying and quite boring at times.

anyway nothing like a sat eve to go through the new menu and see whats around!!
