General Chat

*wonders if this is the right board for this thread* :-S

I agree with Stray goooooo on Susanwithnumbers - I dare you

:-D :-D :-D :-D @ TW

Difficult to do that Stray when you get a full 5000 character post of C&P from wikipedia :-D :-D :-D

well id post it on any board ya like n if people moan then ignore em lol x

Absolutely agree, I'd much rather have a bit of banter whilst people were helping than sitting here like a naughty child waiting to be chastised for either being on the wrong board, daring to mention the same person twice or not supplying sufficient information.

All too scary :-(

I have a Frederick Smith in my tree,Maggie,no relation to John though. :-D :-D
Sigh,those were fun days,I remember them well <3

Have to agree.The threads asking to find John Smith that ended up with a head count of Disney characters, or those with dubious names on GR were fun!!

Well I suppose there is method in their madness, but I would like to be able to ask for help from people I know and have a laugh with.

I remember seasoned researchers asking others if they would like to help with their tree and each person who did, let the person know.....then away they went ...hidden for hours, only popping up to add a find or ask a question.......or have a breather and call the persons decendant a floozie.....if the cap fitted that is. :-D

Now.......tis lonely

Sigh! Them were tut days :-\

Agree with you there Susan,
it's like being at school, with a strict Headmaster,
and all the sneaky monitors or prefects.lol!!!!!!!!!!!

Your on the wrong board or you have asked for this information before,
Thats all I seem to read about.

BRING BACK THE FUN AS WELL AS THE RESEARCH.

I guess I will be told off for shouting now,have you ever heard such rot. ;-)
:-D :-D :-D :-P

Even though there were the other trying to find boards etc, those of us on chat or general who wanted help from chatty friends, used to put up a quest and a few of us, ad-libbing like mad, had a great time helping each other out.

I wish those times could still happen without this over strict regime coming down on us like a tonne of bricks. It used to be fun.....whatever happened?
