Thanks LooseBoots. All down to the people joining and the moderators. Still need many more to join and use it actively. Hope it will be a success.

it just goes to show that people don,t appreciate nasty people- bickering, pulling people up on their spelling,being abusive,. generally not being helpful which is what a forum should be all about. Bring on the next 500 the more the merryer(i think i misspelled this but who cares) away to go soner

We might not have the 'wicked' on here (thank goodness) but we certainly have the witty!
and to echo the thought - The more the merrier!
i too hav e been getting good feedback from folk, so soner - well done!
I have been reading some disappointing postings on a 'rival' b oard (I say that, cos it is not really anything to do with competkitiveness but can't think of another suitable word) and so glad that we have not experienced that here yet.

Went into Bestsellers in Karakum yesterday and signs up advertising the forum. Quite amusing as the lady in shop asked how to start a new posting..............

Yes, I saw the poster and told Soner. But your title needs editing looseboots cos it is now 703. I keep telling people to sign up and write, and I am sure people are realising how good this is - or maybe they want to win the tickets ! But then they have to post as well>>>>

I like to think I have 'recruited' a few as I do tend to go on about how good the forum is, I think people join initially, just to shut me up.
But hey it works, now they all agree, KIBKOM, is the best.

Ian, Moderators are removing spammers on a daily basis. The ones that do not get through are cleared by me, these are bots that could only register could not attempt posting. Normally clear at end of day.

Programmes set up to scroll through backend of websites, read the programming and then find forms to fill in and then complete forms automatically, but usually can not access further than "Captcha (coding only legible by humans).
Search engines send bots to websites to index sites on their listings.They read coding, content, and index appropriately.

This is a great forum, happy, intelligent postings and no bickering. Think you are doing a great job Soner, well done. Will still drop in from time to time from Turkey and may even do a blog from Dalyan.

Great forum but is it just me struggling to read the pale green font on white background? Anyone know if I can change it at all?

If you click on user control,then board preferences then scroll down the list to board style and you can change the colour to blue or purple then click submit.

Wow. We are now pushing the 800! But where are the posters? I am sure they have much that would enrich the forum. Come on guys and gals - speak to us.

Trouble is, summer takes you outdoors and away from the laptop etc. I find we are also not looking so much at downlads either and I lost several as they became out of date before we got round to watch them. Today is still damp and a bit cool, that's why I'm still here now!!
I like the green!!
