Are there too many sections on here?

It isn't affiliated/associated to any Club, has rigorously applied terms and conditions, and sections that can be opted in or out of depending upon what the user prefers. Not all the sections are available to none members. A smallish forum, although growing weekly. Very friendly, very supportative, both in terms of help and advice, sharing interesting ideas and just generally helping each other out! Software that is second to none, making posting photos, videos etc.... Very easy, even for the none PC proficient. The fact that it is easy to do most things on it makes it attractive to more users. 

takethedogetc, Are you talking about Caravan Chat?  Sorry to be a bit thick, but you dont make that clear.

The forum referred to is Caravanchat (all one word - http://www.caravanchat.org.uk).

Write your comments here...But its the same people as on here so whats the difference are you saying they are unhelpful and not friendly here but are on caravan chat?  They no doubt promote teh same views and ideas there as they do here, and from looking at it it may have more functionality but it did not look friendly to me.

Please see comment above re Caravanchat NOT Caravan Chat.

Yes TF, community forum on caravanchat.org.uk 

Lots of up to date news items regarding touring holidays, here and abroad; related news items, snippets of interesting articles about differents aspects of  tourer designs, old and new; archive articles, places of interest to visit, reviews for all types of sites, wildlife and bird spotting hints; buyer advice for gadgets and techno items; and of course, rather a lot of fun for those who enjoy just a bit of banter to get them through the day! It is a forum that evolves to suit its membership, if someone mentions an interest and others want to take part, then it is quickly taken on board and up and running. Has PM facility as well, which of course is very useful.

Isn't this supposed to be a discussion about the CT forum rather than a criticism of others?

Not sure how the list of latest posts can look unfriendly unless you have an issue with the users of another forum.  In which case feel free not to join

It's really flattering to be talked about. Thankyou, all.

It really must have merits as some people try to join again and again.

Write your comments here...so MichaelT what exactly is your point?  Are you saying we should be limited to one forum or that we should change our user names.  It's my choice to be a member of both CT and caravan chat.com so nothing else to say except we seemed to have strayed off topic

MT, what a rather pointless post. Just because a few of the avatar names of members are shared between the two forums, doesn't mean that both sites don't have lots of other members, some who post quite frequently, others who don't post very much. The two forums are rather different, bound to be given that one is very much part of a much larger Club, while the other is independent. Both serve a purpose in the larger world of touring forums. Nothing much wrong with either, or at least there won't be once CT gets its upgrade. 

I am sure most discerning CT users will make up their own minds if an alternative forum is of interest to them or not. Negativity is one of the elements that caravanchat forum lacks, make of that what you want!

I think sections on forums need to develop as use dictates. For instance, on Caravanchat we find that, as membership steadily increases, so does the desire to discuss different topics. Therefore, sections are added to meet the needs of members and can just as simply be removed if they cease to be used. Isn't that what has happened on CT as well? Sections are added/Deleted User over time and most of us have seen it in action.
