    I think some are more champions than mods, but still it would be good to see some of the champions get involved in some of the discussions as well, might well stop some of the convoluted threads on UK sites etcsurprised

    Duplicate posts are a successful ploy by the IT staff to ensure that posts stay at a respectable rate!

    They were trying for two duplicates on each post but sadly got the coding slightly wrong....still, they are not perfect.wink

    Defending a cause can be stretched to indicate a 'Champion' but surely it can't be stretched far enough to include CC staff members?

    Many do a very good job and often get thanked...and as a bonus they even get paid for it!surprisedsealed

    Regarding your second paragraph.

    All this would probably be lost on someone with a colour deficiency problem like myself.  And there are quite a lot of us around!

    Didn't expect a response so not disapointed in not receiving one

    Not only duplicate posts. The CC are also sending out duplicate alerts saying the new mag is ready on the app.

    i have just caused a duplicate post (cycling info) and this is what happened....

    i was typing but, before i finished, the post decided to 'post itself' (i dont think i touched the add thread button)....

    so, as i hadnt finished, i edited the existing post to add the remainder of the post....i then updated this.

    when i checked, we nlw had two posts exactly the same.

    so, a clue for the IT chaps ......if theyre interested....

    On both of them your-'use other post' request is there BBfrown it could be a quiet thread. More info for cycling is a good idea mindsmile

    ha, thanks, rocky, obviously only typed it into one of them (undecided) to 'unconfuse' folk.....what a heap of tosh this system is....

    hardly worth the effort....

    BB

    As the post seemed mainly about France I have moved to Overseas, as I thought it would be useful to people going to France. I noticed the small postscript at the bottom about Club sites which perhaps would be better posted as a separate thread?

    David, the post was most definitely NOT about continental sites.

    the point was that i wanted to get the reaction of those using uk sites and what information is available here (having given an example of the type of info that CAN be made a ailable if there is the will)....perhaps with a sustrans/club relationship.

    we already know they do it right 'over there'....undecided

    DK, the post mentions France but elicits a response re the UK, turning the thread into a UK sites thread.

    This site is still driving me up the wall.

    I inadvertently started a new discussion in the CL section that was the subject of a recent discussion that had bypassed me when I was away on holiday. I immediately realised my mistake so Deleted User my post and now I can't access the original post as when I click on it it takes me to my own Deleted User post!

    This is just stupid. After nearly a year of putting up with this forums foibles isn't it about time the iT staff sorted these basic errors out?
