I've rejoined the Club after quite a few years. The forums are not as active as they might be. Yes you can pay £15 to join more active groups but wouldn't it be good if this forum, which we have paid for after all, could become a little more active and responsive by members using it more. (Or maybe I have found it too hard to find what I'm looking for!?)
Posted on 11/09/2020 22:24 by OnlyJenand another reason that CT is virtually dead ...
The post above, the same old protagonists bickering away with the same old arguments, the petty bickering totally derailing any attempt at meaningful discussion.
I thought the subject was why is this forum so dead .... not hashing old bickering that were going on years and years ago.

It seems to me some people only post when they have something to say.
Other people have nothing to say and say it endlessly. A least it must provide employment for someone to delete all the posts by the usual suspects over the weekend.
The fact that software is not fit for purpose really can’t be disputed. While in the context of a discussion forum it is irritating but ultimately trivial. It does concerns me greatly that it may reflect, the standard of competence, of the IT systems of the club as a whole. This becomes a real worry, if I am handing over my credit card details, I worry about security to a degree that I just don’t on other online sites.

There is nothing wrong with people only posting when they have something to say.
There is nothing wrong with people posting simply to join in with the chatter but there is something wrong with people posting criticising those who do this and name calling by way of using a group name to describe them. Something which contravenes the guidelines and is usually Deleted User.
Your concerns regarding the IT of the whole site are shared by many.

Yes the CT part is terribly slow, beset with errors and not fit I fully agree, but the booking part is working fine isn't it? I've just booked three sites for next year and it was as quick as can be with no server errors or other problems.
And really isn't that the side that matters more and is used the most by most members. Looking at the reviews that come up under latest activity there are countless names that never use this forum at all. Yet they all can manage their bookings I assume with no problems?
While we all agree how bad CT is I do wonder why we all keep using it? One of life's mysteries.

Perhaps if the Club were more proactive in monitoring the return, under a different disguise, of those who might have been blocked for contravening the guidelines and being provocative it might help? A leopard seldom changes its spots, and there have been two such around the last few days, giving the pot a bit of a stir. 🤷♀️
Actually, make that three.....
