Thank you.

If anyone is wondering why I am posting a lot these past two days, it's not to increase my rank or anything. It's just that I have the headcold from hell and can't concentrate on any of my *real* work, so I'm just sort of stuck on the couch with my laptop, blanket, and a stash of facial tissue.

We always used to say it was a bad idea, but i reckon a chat room could be quite decent now seeing as loads of people use the forum nowadays. The last few days have been hectic.

Would be good 'cause there's always someone on line now.

POTW, get well soon

I'll have a look into that. If anybody wants to look for one, we have pearl, PHP and MySqL at our disposal for your information.

chat room sounds like a great idea, only i dont know how often i would be able to chat with you all, being that youre probably asleep most of the time im on the computer, so i dunno

Well there's about 5 of us online now, usuall about that after 7 over here.

I presume the place is littered with Americans around midnight here, so at all times there should be an ok amount, be it just the same people.

well the only reason im on now is because school got out at 12:30 because of Easter. but yea, there would probably be plenty of people on at night

Hey Keith .. There is another site I frequent and members
can send a small amount of money to chip in. It is a good site
and I've watched it grow over the past 1and1/2 years. And those who contribute really enjoy doing so. Its not much. Here is the
different amounts .
.
Up to $0.95 A week
$0.95-$1.95 A month
$1.96-$7.95 Three months
$4.96-$14.95 Eight months
$14.96-$24.99 Two years
$25.00 or more Forever!

And you don't have to contribute its a free site..

And there is no speical treatment for doing so.
You still get banned if you break the rules.
And no refund.
The best thing about doing it is you get a speical
listing under your post name listing the member
as a " Contributing Member " . Thats all. I've talked
with those who contribute there and they say it makes
them feel great helping to spread the music and the
many , many different veiws of the Greatest Band Ever.

Just a thought ...

What do you think

And other members to, what are
your thoughts

Good idea but the pop up ads just about cover all the costs so no need for profiteering!!

Actually, by and large this is quite a young forum.

How did people first hear about it? I just entered Pink Floyd forum in my search engine and i'd never been to this site before ad that's how it began for me.
