Hi drivingrichard, I'm new to the forum and have the same problem. Glad it's not just me! I'll keep an eye out for the response but did you notice there's a question on there asking if you're wealthy? Not entirely happy with that one as I can't for the life of me imagine why that should be relevant...

Hello and welcome @divingrichard and @TrishMabey .
Sorry you are having difficulty with this thread.

It was set up many years ago, mainly as an ‘icebreaker’ . So anyone new, and not sure where to make a first post had something to start with.

There is no obligation to answer any of the questions , unless you want to.

There is no form to fill in, either. If you choose to you can go to the first post in the thread, copy it, and respond to some of the questions.
Alternatively, just check out some of the threads that interest you and ask your own questions.

Moderators have info for new members in their signatures, at the end of their posts. You will find mine by scrolling to the end of this one.

Hope you find the info you are looking for.
Best wishes,
Pipp.

Hi, I'm Trish and new to the forum.

I've been trying to post the newbie form but it keeps telling me there's a problem with it. Apparently, my answers are 'spammy' or 'inappropriate'! Made me laugh a bit but I can't figure out what it's so offended by.

Sooo, I'm 64 years old and was diagnosed with T2D about two months. I live in the West Midlands but originally from Bournemouth. Retired early so no longer work.

No sports and my days are filled looking after my rather poorly partner.

Love all sorts of music from Classical to heavy rock. Really enjoy a good police drama.

Regards Trish,,,

The forum has a sometimes overzealous filter to prevent new members from posting links to disencourage spammers. This includes links/replies to an old post.
If this happened in this thread, it may be the filter caught your reply or copying the first post in this thread. Very annoying!
