Very frustrating but I imagine it's worse for those who had put effort in to get the last one going. I think after the initial irritation everyone will be signing up again soon. UTM

Shame the other one closed it looked promising, Hez could've handed over to someone else than shut it surely? Don't like the name of this one tbh - to me it doesn't scream GTFC? Yes I know the associations with Haddock - Harry, the fishing industry etc... but for all intents and purposes this forum could be about deep sea fishing with it's current name.

The name is temporary. I only named it after my fishy name (Gary Haddock) is was the first thing that came to mind. The name will be changed. I will do a thread on names and then we'll short list them and then do a poll.

Was annoying that the other one was just closed like that because it was starting to look like a decent replacement for The Fishy.
Hopefully everyone that was on there joins this.

Welcome back Tintowner. Hope you drag a few friends with you lol. This isn't very active yet and many still haven't joined. Probably because of the way the other one was just taken down. I can promise that this forum will be open, up and running for as long as it's in my power to do so.
Need to push it out there and attract others onto the forum. I've even sent a message to the Mariners Trust to try and get them on board at least a representative of the trust on here as admin or mod.

Will share the link on facebook and hopefully get Barralad, JockDocTower back on board.

have a lot of competition which worries me slightly. But hopefully when the Mariners trust comes on board this forum, it will grow and get better.
