Le Marche Chapter?

[Moxie]

Forgive me if these questions have already been asked please.

Would a Marche group be a useful tool? Has this already been done in the past? I cannot find anything in the groups section but then I cannot open page 2 ... Is there an existing group a-lurking on this inaccessible page?

We are very new and feel it would be overly familiar if we just started a group but are very curious as to why there isn't one? The forum's Marche contingent seems large enough to make a group a successful 'venture' as it were.

Only wondering...

Good idea Moxie - you never know there may even be one just round the corner on page 2 but we can't open it either! Maybe someone who knows how to set up 'groups' will help us. Would love to share/ swap hints and tips with other fellow Le Marche members who are interested!

We think its a great idea, what do we do next?

[Moxie]

You are soooooo not peeing on my jeans!

[Angie and Robert]

Its an idea, but how would it function?, and what purpose would it serve over and above the section already on the forum?. Perhaps Neilo could give us some help and ideas as she has the experience learnt from her own group.

To clarify
Nobody has to pee on anybody elses jeans.

I merely used the word 'Chapter' to capture interest. I wish to goodness that I hadn't!
JC you are a pesky monkey adorable, but a monkey nevertheless!

Yes let's do it! As for starting a group, why not? Do we use the invite only option? We are a very exclusive bunch! Or thrown open to all? After all we are becoming more of a sociable mass after many years of pretending that we are the ONLY great white hunters in "the undiscovered Marche"? Posts hidden from visitors? 'cos we are probably very secretive about OUR eating places and beauty spots!?
Questions, questions, questions.

Great idea Moxie(and him).
Were you in San Severino yesterday?

How are you accessing the Groups?

I always go for the ‘Groups’ button, which appears at the right hand top of the page, next to ‘forums’.

I then get a list of all the groups of which I am a member, followed by a list of all the groups listed in order of , which had the most recent post.

The last group listed id UK TV, which has only had one post.

Although it says page 1 of 2, I don’t think there are any other groups and that is why you can’t open page 2… there is nothing to open.

Good luck if you decide to open a new group and if you need any help just ask, but it’s very easy really or I wouldn’t have been able to do it!

Oh and judging by the comments above you may want to leave the windows open to get rid of the smell of pee.

Thank you Nielo for restoring sanity, do you find that there is a function for an additional group? How does it differ from posting here on the main forum? Does it increase the community spirit etc?

JC - dearest, I didn't ask you to bring my beeeeeoootiful thread to its knees by introducing the somewhat off putting subject of bodily functions now did I? We will not be paying the agreed amount so let's re negotiate or you won't be seeing a single red cent. Alternatively you can redeem yourself by working your magic on the 'not a bot' thread which is floundering at best (that or kill it off completely please). Its truly painful to watch in its current condition inspite of (and him)'s sweet effort during his tea break.

Mr Uno - Tell us ... was it the Maiden and Judas Priest t-shirts or 'The Greatest Puccini Show on Earth' on the car stereo that gave us away? <moxie sticks out tongue in D'Uno's general direction>

The word 'pee' or any reference to it is now officially banned from this thread. If the peeing persists I shall inform the authorities or commence red triangling the offenders (is triangling a word?)

<big smiley happy nodding thing emoticon> there are no available smiles on quick reply so its DIY or nowt.

To use smilies on quick reply you must ‘go advanced’, and may the force be with you.

There is a problem using groups. All you get at the moment is a string of messages so some can get a bit lost. There was talk some time ago of a forum upgrade and I think one of the extra functions is that it enables threads to be created in the Groups. But then I am still waiting for the new smilies we were sort of promised way back at Christmas…maybe for Easter?
