I don't think many people use it.
Seems to only be a select SU-type few.

Chakar

You're right there a maximum of twenty people would use it and few hundred might view it every day.

I hate the boards in the UCDDSU website. Its just venus in furs continually bolloxing on with different articles.

Tbh one of the reasons this forum is so popular is because of the state of affairs on ucdsu.net.

Most people here want to avoid the hack-fighting (no offence to anyone but ya know what I mean) that goes on over there.

Yeah that's true there's a hack fight going on now.Labour Youth support the hunger strikers and someone is asking if Labour Youth support the hunger strikers as they committed rapes and murders in Afghanistan.It can be vicious over there let me tell you I've been in the thick of it myself.

Exactly, It's not. Another reason why this forum is so popular.

Chakar

Absolutely no connection you know a hack fight.A few class reps are in Labour Youth and one Arts Programme Officer Elect is the chairman.

Ah now lets all be thankful for the UCDSU forum, it gives the children somewhere to play politics, if it weren't for that forum they'd be over here pestering us. As I've said before it's good that they all hang out there as it makes them much easier to ignore.

Yeah they would but then again the forum would get a lot of traffic and isn't that what every website wants.

And that's why they send their minions to more popular forums to casually mention how wonderful ucdsu.net is.

Chakar

Yeah!!!!

Tbh Chakar, I think this forum can do without that type of traffic. It's not too long ago that all SU members were banned from this forum. (if the search function was working I'd show ya)

We are all aware of the existence of that site and the majority of us have no desire to use it. There has been an increase in SU members posting here over the last year and it's great to have people like Vainglory and singingstranger posting and giving us info on SU happenings.

However, I don't think anyone here wants this place over-run with SU types (again no offence). Thats what ucdsu.net is there for and if we want that type of discussion we'll go over there. I seem to recall a lot of happy people afer the banning of VenusInFurs...:) Thats the type of crap we want to keep off the forum.

*raises hand* I was happy. I like this place as it is. I also like Gav and Vainglory and kate....but there's just about the right balance of SU threads at the moment. No more I say!

We're all members of the SU though peacheh, empty forum much?

OT: www.medievalsourcebook.com (for history tis handy)
www.bbc.co.uk (also kudos to them across the water for their history

Actually no, we've been talking about a pretty crappy site in fairness. Not much quality over there.
