as another note, to reduce bandwidth usage and uneccesary posts t0, perhaps you could use the 'report this post to a Mod' button to try and merge threads, rather than posting a message.

If you can be a pedant, so can I :P

The mods (apart from Tony and Lickszzz, sometimes Max) ignore them anyway. Also, if there was such great concern about bandwidth, there wouldn't be threads like the "nick at night 2" thread which apparently can't be merged with my existing Nick Margerrison thread because that one has been hidden until he has been interviewed. :loopy: There's nothing like logic and common sense.

Have they made you a mod now then ? If so the text next to your avatar needs altering....

T020,
Erm you say the mods apart from those mentioned above ignore bandwiths - but they are the only three aren't they?
Oh apart from Geoff. He's the only one that's left..?

To address the original question, YES it is turning into a Waitrose and they have already put in the planning application to renew the signage on the store.

No, according to t020 we ignore reported posts. Generally as Tony stated above they consist of "Make me a mod" and little inbetween, which doesnt really aid to alter whichever post needs attention.

The bandwidth problem is a serious issue, and t020s rather odd example of the Nick @ Night thread doesnt really make sense as the old BIG thread which used up lots of bandwidth has been replaced by a smaller one which doesnt use as much bandwidth (the other now uses none).

The real reason hes mad is because it was his thread.
