"Web Design - General Chat"

I was going through the archive earlier and came across Turbo’s Web Design Pledge. Although I can vaguely remember this when it happened, I thought nothing of it, but upon reading it again, something really caught my eye.

“However, the forum is just being "used". Where as forums like the FOG are ever-popular, with people visiting regularly and generally having fun, the Web Design forum is merely being "used" for question and such like. Well, no longer! I want to turn this forum into a proper community.”

He is right here, this forum is only really used by people wanting questions answered, but I think that this forum is probably the best on the site. Mainly because nearly everyone in here knows what they are talking about. But I don’t like how the forum is used just for questions.

So here is what I propose, we use this thread for general chat. Not just web design, anything at all. Since not many people pass through this forum anymore, it won’t get spammed up too much, it’ll just be a place where people can go to be themselves.

If it doesn’t work, then fine. I just think this thread will be able to make this forum more of a community.

So… what’s up everyone? :0)

Hmm, this seems like a good idea.

First go on an x-box today, an in-store rig, ssx. I blame my incompetence on my busted thumb (though it'll be out of the bandaging on monday). Did look better than the tv screens i'd seen suggested.

I'm off to Villa Park now so I'll see y'all later.

COME ON VILLA!!!

Ahem, should be back about 7 ish, don't miss me too much :D.

...lovely, yeah CD changer in the glove box is a good idea, you keeping your engine the same? what is it? 1.6? GTIs sound nice with quad exhausts ;)

I wish, saw a V6 Supercharged Corrado for £3,000 mere pocket money, I should have bought it :p until then i'll be happy with a Golf's 1.3/1.4
Also: do standard alloys increase your insurance?

Well, to be fair, I don't think anyone would want to nick it :D. It ain't a bad little car though. I'll like it though, because it means I'll never have to walk again :D:D.

git, my Uncles had a MK2 Jetta stashed away for one of his daughters for a while, but she got a Polo instead so i'm getting it, problem is it's a 1700 so it needs a new engine, but i've got a few plans for it later on.

slowly working on? what have you done to it?

yellow? well if it gets stolen they won't get far without being spotted :p
Novas are good cars though, not planning on getting insured on your brothers next car? ;)

yeah they are wicked - do you want a mk2 or 3? the jetta in the fast and the furious is pretty phat. I have got a golf GTi mk3, that i am slowly workin on...

I'm sure everyone will laugh at what my first car is, but here goes...

I'm inheriting my brother's Nova :D. It's an F reg and worst of all, it's YELLOW. Still, can't complain about the price :D.

I forgot my age!

I'm 15 everyone! (not that anyone cared)

And I'll upload a pic soon!
