I would like all members to have a input on how the forum looks and runs. Please feel free to suggest anything here that may improve the AMF site.

I say no. May be frustrating, but I don't think it is warranted. If you really intend to do it, I would appreciate it if you PM me before you do it, and I will tell you why it shouldn't be done (in my opinion).

I tell ya what we should do.

1.Get rid of the theme cause im gunna be honest not many people like the way it looks or feels.

2.Make a website that not only has a forum but has F1 news updates,pictures,videos from each race and tests so it can be like our own F1 website.
There would also be plenty of people to run it as well.

3.I think this forum needs a change, because i find it boring for the main reason that is everyone gets along with each other too well.
Wheres the debating and rivalry? there is nothing to keep us entertained.

Nothing much to talk about at the moment. That will change when the racing starts. Remember this has been the first off season for the forum and the member participation has been fantastic.

Also sometimes you have to create your own fun within reason. Don't expect everyone else to do it for you.

The theme constantly changing is annoying, always messes with my greasemonkey modding.
What does a scanner see? I mean, really see? Into the head? Down into the heart? Does it see into me--into us--clearly or darkly? I hope it does, see clearly, because I can't any longer these days see into myself.

We are haveing a few technical problems today, basically the previous theme is clashing with the letter verification code on the registration page for new members, current theme is a quick fix.

Since the latest mods the page numbers seem to have dissappeared and it is difficult to back track through a forum. Can they be reactivated????
By the way I think we should give TF a bit of a go. Those of us with big ego's (like me) should remember we all started somewhere.

You can start your own thread if you want too, you don't have to wait for someone else to start a new topic, do it yourself.

If you haven't noticed, polls have now been enabled for general members, so post away :D

And your suggestion for a News style web page is being looked at, however it takes time to run and maintain it with up to date current news, you only had to look at N10's RPM news page last year, up to 3 months out of date and an embarresment, so it needs to be done properly. But we are looking into it.

in regards to tf they should stay, i will admit that i do engage in, well crap with tf but i am just trying to figure the person out and yet to no avail.  but next time there is some cleaning going on can it be done so i don't look like i am having a dumb ass conversation with myself or getting rid of the relevant info to the tread.

secondly i don't want a news site layout for here, the forum is to discuss the news and yes for a greater part we all do get along so i would like to come here for info and a discussion. if i wanted a  :siht:  fight i would sign up to one of the other kiddies holding pens.
