Done... maybe, I dont have tapatalk installed. Could you give it a go?

Anyone watch it? Think its just called "Gold Rush" over here. Basically a bunch of n00bs trying to be gold miners, pretty amusing to watch at times. I'm pretty addicted to it, and according to wikipedia season 3 starts on Friday

Something like a tenner was what I was thinking...

Looks good. I think I'd go for something a bit more subtle: http://www.spreadshirt.co.uk/design-your-own-t-shirt-C59/product/105443282/view/1/sb/l

I should have mentioned really, I'm not organised enough to sort out getting stuff printed/made up and posting it out. I have trouble replying to text messages, let alone posting stuff With the stickers I can just do them in one massive batch. So the more automated the better really. Good idea about the 'donate how much you want', but unfortunately again with the systems that are available for this, it'd require a bit of intervention from myself to keep everyones user accounts updated I think I'd prefer one 'tier' rather than multiple ones too, so finding the value of £X which appeals to the most amount of people - but still keeps it 'special' is a tough one.

The whole sticker thread got me thinking, it seems a lot of people want to donate to TF (which is awesome - thanks!). In the past some people have brought up the idea of subscriptions like you see on other forums, but we've usually been put off as we don't want give the wrong idea by looking like we're in it for the money. To be honest, advertising revenue covers the hosting costs now pretty comfortably (server technology has got a lot cheaper over the past 10 years), which is why we're looking to reinvest back into the community, So far we've done stuff like investing in stickers, a few charity donations and our donation to the GETcreative comp. If you have any other ideas let us know. Regardless, I was thinking instead of simply sticking up a paypal address for donations, some people may prefer the idea of 'subscribing' to the forum. The deal would be you pay £X per year, and in return you get a highlighted username and maybe a little logo underneath your avatar saying you're a supporter. What we don't want to do is force people to become a subscriber in order to get technical benefits (eg more PM space, more upload space, access to special areas etc) - we think you should get that stuff anyway. So your subscription would literally only get you a special username (for the time being at least, maybe we could work out something with some trials companies in the future? who knows.) We'd still put up a paypal address for those who want to donate but dont want to donate the full £X per year for a subscription. So, what are your thoughts on this? How much should £X be? Is this a good idea or not?

Yeah, you're right there. My theory doesn't account for that But then calling it the "new" ipad for whatever reason still has that problem. I just think there's more to calling it the "new" ipad than just because its the latest one, but I'm suspicious of apple (but I do have a new iPad - its alright..) Next one will be called the iPad galaxy slat doh- can't think of anything that's not already been taken!

It could be my paranoia, but I reckon the marketing reason behind calling the iPad 3 the "new" iPad, is so that people with an iPad 2 don't just have an iPad [[version number]], they now suddenly have an old iPad. And nobody wants old things.

http://shop.vodafone.co.uk/shop/mobile-phone/huawei-ascend-g300-payg/specifications those are getting really good reviews at the moment and loads of people are 'hacking' them, so plenty of stuff you can do with them if you like to play about. But you wont get the apple service or quality.. IMO you get what you pay for but I don't value customer service and warrenty replacements that much. I'd prefer to take my chances with a good quality 'budget' phone and get a new one every year or so Saying that, I've just bought one of these to replace my android phone

still had to google it

Oops, my bad. Upgraded the board last night and theres a single manual hack I have to put in to make emails work, which I totally forgot about. Should be fixed now

Yeah, caught a glimpse of someone on a bike but I guess that was one of the bmxers. Thought the closing ceremony was a bit lame, just because it didn't seem to have any direction. There was a tightrope walker at one point? Pretty cool - but why?

Registration should now work - there was a problem that every email address you tried would claim its already in use. Thats fixed now so big thanks for letting me know (was wondering why registrations had dropped!) Azarathal, if you let me know your other account I'll delete it. You should be able to link your facebook account to your current account then

PM me his email address and I'll take a look. You know that if you sign up you have to use a real email address? You need to click a link in order to prove that you own the email address. Ahhh hmm that is very odd. Have you linked your account to facebook? Tried changing your password? When you're at home, can you log out and back in using the password? (or have you just been logged in for the past 8 weeks)

Gah, my methods of working out what to order have failed I'll try and remember to ask for some grey ones - I don't think jonny has started on them yet. Would maybe do TF tshirts at some point, I'd have to find out how much they'd cost though 'cos I wouldnt want some crappy iron on thing, would prefer to do it properly - however that is! (screenprinted maybe?

keep it clean (ish) please..

Havent really been watching the olympics but this just popped up on BBC news http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/in-pictures-19208480

There's a few climbers on here, theres even a climbing thread somewhere - in fact, here it is Welcome

There is some sort of topic template system we could use which could make the classifieds forum a bit more structured, but both that 'solution' and the BuySell system fail as soon as a user wants to list more than one item in a single topic/advert. The BuySell thing is great (looks awesome) if you want to list one item at a time, but on TF its rare that a user lists a single item - its usually a selection of parts all listed in one go..I'm also not totally convinced on the question/answer thing it had, personally I prefer having a bunch of replies on a topic. Swings and roundabouts..

That's pretty funny, but quite worrying at the same time!

Looks sweet. I have a couple of 591 carriers, excellent design and once they're set up I really dont see how it could be any easier to attach a bike to a car.

Can't win

I think it'll be another couple of years before I can withstand the backlash of closing the classifieds forum It works well enough, to be fair, I'll just leave it be

Welcome
