had to re-register to the new site, so don't know how my old stats will be carried over.

Got some new cars I got from a local collector.

Idris advised me to go here. So the YUKU web-starter can be left behind. I'm sure Lefora thought it looked a lot better than what they had which was out of date aswell.

I had been having lots of problems logging in to the old site in general for quite a few months now. I think the change in software really clinched me giving up on it. I am so happy to see that you just scrapped it and opened a new one. I have used this style of software before and am used to it, so am happier now.

:) :D :P

Could you post your phone number to me in a pm, I seem to have lost your number.
I don't seem to be able to send PMs yet - what's the post number required?

We all put a lot of effort into creating those wonderful old threads full of knowledge,they are a great reference tool alongside the variation guide so I look forward to them being added here.MCCH became worthless once their archive was deleted and nobody really wants to lose our amazing archive with photos.In only a couple of years with Lefora we discussed almost every Lesney diecast which gave casual searchers a great reference tool using the search feature.I wonder how many other big lefora groups will also bail on their new dumbed down format???

Hi Martin.
I think it is two or three posts but I'm not 100% sure.
Revo,
This is a totally new forum, your stats can't be carried over from the old forum. we're all newbies here!.
Mick.
The old threads should always be available, I can't see why lefora would consider deleting them.

How many posts do we need to make before we're free to post without waiting for approval?

Still an old format. I suspect ten posts will free the limiter
