Just been to have a look as it's been just over a year since the move.
In the time it has taken for use to put 81 pages of threads onto our meeting place they have managed to get another 6 on theirs.
Seems like it never got going again.
Oh well.

Which "old" place do you mean? There was Computer Shopper, (where I originally found the forum) PC Pro, MacUser, etc...

Oh, I forgot that they were all separate now. I was looking at PCPro.

LOL, Macuser have a page and a half.
Custom PC has combined with some other magazine and Computer Shopper doesn't appear to be a Dennis site any more.

I actually had a look there, (PC Pro) this morning as well, and it just doesn't seem to be going anywhere. Anyway, enough looking back, I like it here!

To be honest, those of us who still visit the MU forums don't actually use the Meeting Place bit. There are requests to the powers-that-be-but-don't-listen to remove it entirely. Most of our business is conducted in the other forums there.

I have barely managed to get past the registration window for ages now. That is why I have not posted there.

Yup, 'tis true. There's actually a thread running on the old Meeting Place debating why it never got going... I won't post a link, you all know where to find it if you're interested.

I still have my account at PC Pro but dont use it. I'll still check the site for news but thats it.
I also registered with Bit Tech but I dont post often and when I do its normally to lol/shout at fanboys who get right on my tits (as they did at CustomPC).

I still have the PC Pro account, but it'll never be used again, and I get their news stories in iGoogle then read their blogs while I'm there
