It is with Regret that closing this Forum is under consideration.
The past years have seen a lack of new members joining and a lack of activity from activate members, 99.9% of new membership applications are spam from individuals seeking to disrupt the forum and each one of these applications has to be assessed to see if they are genuine applicants.
The truth is I personally have deleted thousands of the spam applicants during the last year with 12 genuine applicants accepted to the forum. Now one new member per month doesn't sound to bad but again the truth of the matter is that only two off these applicants have actually been active within the Forum.
In actual fact there is a high number of members who have joined over the years who have never been active and the forum was left to a few who were regulars answering questions in the determination sections and for whom we are extremely grateful ( you know who you are).
Notice is, therefore, Given that if interest and activity within the forum does not increase the forum will cease to exist as of 31st December 2016.
Your comments please.
Regards
Ian
