for two or three months before the crash i didn't even visit. I was getting so down about the progress on the bus i couldn't face coming here. these things happen but now i'm happy to get involved again. it'll come, just take some time.
I dont go on any other sites I find them boring, when I found this site something just hooked me I dont do twitter or facebook and tried that google+ but thats got nothing I want either
Ricky, your uniqueness helped make this place more entertaining. Don't loose what made you. Yes things are a little repetitive but I'm sure that will change in time.
im on a few other sites and the newbies ask the same old questions,but thats what its all about.im a newbie on here and dont no no differant,so to me its all new.and it will keep rolling on thats what happens new poeple new buses and so on.some people may go for a year then get a bus and then come back again.do no what you mean though if so much as been lost
I've been feeling much the same, I was never a prolific poster, more useful than all out post whore, but I'm on here now, and so is everyone reading this, so I'm sure it will pick back up.
Hi IaMMMMMMMMM BACKKKKKKK Oh dear doctor I think I need the pan again, oh to late as usual Ah that's better come on what it really about this site was very good and will be again just like the vans you love sOOO much rubish happens in more way than one, just like a bad penny they'll all come back.
I have also found it stange since the new site got going , to be honest i lost a lot of pictures and storys that i had posted not that i did'nt save them but at times it seems a waste of time re ashing a load of previously posted stuff and i know a lot of others are feeling the same ,i also dislike losing all the karma i had been given they felt like really good vibes . But Hey its a new opportunity , time to rethink, repost yeah but its a chance to be imaginative , tell people of your experiences , share knowledge , add new unseen pics , create caption comps , revamp your old postings , arrange to get to meets , start a local group and show off yer vans - So long as your not rude or use bad language tlb is the place you can express yourself - so come on dudes n dudess's lets refill the site , with imagination . Its got plenty of good vibes lets bask in em
Blimey, I go away on 2 weeks holiday to a sunny place with virtually no internet and all hell breaks loose..........
Welcome back Ewan, thought you'd left us, b.t.w, i lost all my mobile numbers/phone so have a new number, if you kept mine from camperjam it's wrong now, p.m me if you want my new one.Rick.
i know where you are coming from but it evolves into what is tlb. for those of you on v1 you would agree the site now is much better. however i don't want it to crash again. it did seem to zap my posting mojo for a time
It will get there. I'm going through all of my photobucket things and adding them again. Look at it as a time to tidy up. I've rearranged my photobucket into various albums now. Makes it so much easier to see what l have.
Just wondering if people felt the same when TLB V1 went down? I can understand what people mean about it not feeling the same, for me it was the wealth of technical info that was lost which was the biggest blow. But the same things go wrong with the busses time and time again so the same questions will be asked and the same answers given. The technical threads will soon be back to their former glory. Obviously loosing your post count or K+ has hit some harder than others, maybee some feel like newbies again as they dont have the hight post count any more......does that make you feel any less welcome?? - I hope not, this place has always felt really friendly and less "cliquy" to me than other sites. Perhapse thats not it and its that the site feels new? Just like moving into a new house its never going to feel right untill you've got all your furnature in and lived there a bit we welcome new commers with open arms even if they havnt got a bus, we dont sneer at people asking silly (to some) questions and always take time to answer them. Wise words fron zed and poptop2 As Zed said people come and go all the time which changes the feel of the site and quite rightly we are never going to re create the site as it was. I do think there are some threads which are worth re instating though, the rest will be the fun of getting to know new members and starting a fresh
