Hi there Pertyowl from Edinburgh here in a very inclement Scotland. Glad to have you aboard Platform1. You have come to the right place for the crack and the modeling. Get yourself comfy and come back and tell us a bit about yourself and what you are up to umongst the modeling fraternity. Doesn't matter if you are just starting out or if you are well on within your modeling projects........ we're all very interested in where you are. looking forward to hearing from you in your own time cheers toto
A warm to pertyowl, glad you decided to join the forum. Were a friendly bunch who love to blether, mainly about model railways, but we do get frequently distracted, and it has been known for modelling to get done as well. Look forward to hearing from you Paul
Finally sussed it out then Rog? Welcome on board. You'll have to compile a story about yourself....heh heh don't think theres enough room for your lifestory though, cheers Chrishttp://www.click
Hi Chris and Roger, I sense there may have been teasers in getting onboard or posting. If so, let us know where you had any issues as we may be able to find a way of making things easier for other newcomers. Good to have you guys onboard. Cheers Toto
Toto, you have a good sense.....when I joined it kept rejecting my application because I didn't properly recognise the gobbledegook security message one has to interpret. I encounter the one on ebay quite regularly and have never had a problem with it, yours I found took at least 8 attempts and each time you have to re-enter details, I was beginning to think it was a conspiracy towards me from people I didn't know. Rogers problem was he spent an hour trying to find the website because he tried everything with Platform One not the numeral, and rang me up to ask what was the %*%$@# (I won't put what he said) correct address! So different issues and probably because in my case I was in a bit of a hurry when I applied. Alls wellnow... I just need to get the others to make the effort. I'm not much of a poster but I enjoy watching the posts and haven't exhausted the site by any means yet. All power to everyone on board, a very enjoyable forum.http://www.click
I'm glad you guys persevered. Maybe I'll need to have a look at the registration system and see if it can be either simplified or clarified or a bit of both. Many thanks for highlighting these issues. I'm sure the effort will be worth it as its a great place with great people. Cheers Toto
