Anything else to add to the list? lol.. The only things he's got apart from members obviously very luckily given he's stripped the site bare, is the ability to customise the profiles better.. Looking into that I'm glad I've not advertised this yet anyway, don't want to until I know everything is working properly and got to grips with everything. And I do expect it to be a slow process anyway because people don't like change even when something is free and um, which I understand btw will be strange.... Better though

We got some new features added.. When you hover over like you have access to some lovely wee smiley's And we also now have a personal gallery.. Can make as many as we like, add pics vids and music.. I'm gonna look to see if we can use images taken from offsite music and vids too, to save space.. Though this is quite nice as is. I've put a limit on it though and used Handbrake to convert the video as it does on FB automatically. Dunno if there's an automatic way you can do that, reduced a one minute vid that was over 100MB to 2.3MB lol. Still perfectly good enough to see as well plus converted the choon to 128KB

NLL does as you say have the advantage of having (just about) enough members for the site to work as intended, but things can change over time like how MySpace used to be THE social networking site (in terms of popularity) but now it's Facebook. Crazy Chums does have a slightly different aim to NLL though - more about friendship and less about dating - so although there might be some competition they kind of complement each other in a way too.

It's still very niche as an idea. There was a time that NLL was a social network site basically but he can't be assed with it.. I've never known anything like it, where someone takes everything away from the site it once was and then bumps up the price tenfold lol to ridiculous levels of silliness. He is taking advantage of peoples need for love in the mental health community and it's a bit wrong really innit. Get a feeling this could pee people off as well because we know it's true and people have paid those stupid prices. And yep realise there will be a time where I'd need to pay for this site somehow (if it works? ?). I ain't gonna do it like him because don't wanna fucking cheat people out of money knowing they are a bit desperate and knowing that people with mental health issues tend not to be that well off.. Just wouldn't do it

Have been at it all day today, trying to figure out why buddypress feels the need to underline text on your profile.. Driving me barmy it was, there is a reason for it because supposedly we might all like the same things but it doesn't work properly.. All frigging day it took working out how to remove the links but we now have About Me Favourite Movies Favourite TV Shows Favourite Music Other Interests It's all very familiar, on your profile I mean.. When you sign up you can fill it all out or not which is what I wanna say but how do you change the registration text? Such silly little things should be a piece of pi** but nope.. Get out there and do some coding Mr
