I thought we had overcome that issue, old posts can now be edited, pictures updated/replaced.


I agree that the big problem we have is that people would rather read than post, but I suppose stamp collectors could just be a shy lot!  We have always insisted that people need to be members before they post. I could open up posts to all and sundry but we would quickly fall foul of spam though perhaps nowadays, if forums are so unpopular, spammers are more likely to be trawling social media instead and we might now fly under the radar?  I don't have time to pick through good and bad posts every day so will always err on side of caution.

I believe most of the 'visitors' are AI bots. Of the members who do visit perhaps only 10-15 are core  'regulars'. I do sometimes wonder if it would not be more practical to organise meetings in London for members instead!

We have until February to sort something out.
