We don't want it 'cos it all gets very confused. I far prefer the current format
Separating mtb from road/cx/recumbent/other bike related tedium would be good.
As would a separate political forum for the usual 10 dullards who like to argue incessantly with each other.

“We don’t”??
What’s the issue with that?
Obvious categories, distinct postings, etc.
TBF - a section for ride outs, workshop, etc would work well unless of course its too much for your brain to handle....
🙄
If you can’t see why the overwhelming majority here have a problem with that, then I’m pretty sure it’s going to be difficult for your brain to understand any explanation anyone might give.
Two forums works well, look at Pinkbike it must have 70+ sub forums so gives the illusion of not being very busy
Edit in fact its not really that busy, multiple sub forums just splits the community and people live in whatever is their niche
Yep, hundreds of sub-forums sucks.
One of the beauties of This Place is that you stumble upon interesting/funny/sad/legendary threads.
Would you have found the Picolax thread in the medical sub-forum? Would you have seen Sudocrem Cat in the Pets sub-forum?
I agree with a separate road forum and an e-bike forum.
Why? It's all bikes innit?
“Overwhelming majority”
Read back through this and the multiple other thr ads.
Far more asking for changes than asking for the status quo to not be changed.
You're imagining it fella. Most requests are for a fix to crappy ads and to the mobile view. There's very few looking to have lots of sub-forums.
Obvious categories, distinct postings, etc.
those sorts of forums are the reason I use singletrack tbh.
It’s never going to be the forum you want it to be Hammy.
Sorry.

This.
With sub forums I probably wouldn't know there were people wanting a change to sub forums.
No Mark - you already posted on the first page that you can’t be bothered.....
Well right now I’m having my tea. So yes, right now I’m not bothered.
Some people have complained about the forums lacking things they want. Some other people have said that generally the forums work and are fine.
The overwhelming majority haven't expressed an opinion.
I think you'll find the above a more accurate summary. 😉
It’s never going to be the forum you want it to be Hammy.
He could just move to Pinkbike and leave us all in peace.....
So could you....
But lets not that fact get in the way of a goof troll....
Why? It's all bikes innit?
So are kids tricycles. Don't want read about them. Same with ebikes. STW are very keen on them, presumably the money will be important soon enough. I don't want to read about them so much. I,vet cancelled my mag sub that I took out after Mark's post about print costs. This year has seen things I don't like in the way the mag is going so I won't be renewing but I will get an electronic sub.
E-bikes are a part of that whole thing.
I accept that is only my opinion and everyone else is entitled to have what they want.
no one is made to read any thread be it on bikes politics or rugby or ****ing watched
Moaning about them[ or the contributors as happens on the politics ones] is daft, just dont read them.

Sorry.
Hurrah 🙂
Well right now I’m having my tea
It's dinner you bloody northerners.
I’m northern. I’m in the north. My tea was lovely.
Why would you have dinner at night? Dinner time is midday.
Lunchtime is midday. Tea time is 5-6ish. I don't know what the hell dinner is.
Hurrah

I'm in the North too, but I know the difference between dinner and tea.
Dinner is the most important meal of the day, so what you eat after work. Therefore, dead animals and vegetables.
Tea is something that you drink, or an excuse for Lancastrians to sing a song about chips.
Dinner ladies serve dinner, in the middle of the day, not in the evening.
Lunch ladies? I don't bloody think so!

That reads like a RAG rating of intelligence.
So where does supper fit in then?
[quote=leffeboy ]So where does supper fit in then?
That's what you have when you get home from the pub
Tea - a drink with jam and bread?
For me dinner is a cooked meal at 8pm. Tea is scones and sandwiches at 4 pm. Lunch is your midday meal. Elevensies are like tea but at 11 am and second breakfast is the best meal of the day.
Supper is a snack before bed
If I work hard I can get 8 meals in in a day
For me dinner is a cooked meal at 8pm
So presumably you did not have dinner ladies at your school you had lunch ladies
Oh and dont ever invite me round for christmas dinner as I will arrive at the wrong time
for me too but it seems to have become tea for those who eat lateSupper is a snack before bed
Why can't the EU just sort it out eh?
Edit: I'm glad that Belgium has it sorted with dejeuner for breakfast, diner for lunch and souper for tea. What would the Frenchies know...
Breakfast
Coffee (or elevenses)
Dinner
(optional - afternoon tea)
Tea
Supper
Anything else is wrong!
Breakfast - first meal of the day.
Lunch - small or cold meal eaten roughly middle of the day.
Dinner - largest (and hot) meal of the day, eaten either around middle of the day or in the evening.
Tea - light hot meal eaten in the evening if you ate dinner at lunch time (see Sundays where dinner is common at lunch time).
Supper - light cold meal eaten in the evening.
Re dinner ladies, they serve a hot meal at lunch time, meeting the first prerequisite for dinner, for many children it will be their most substantial meal of the day meeting the second. For proof of this, children take packed lunches to school not packed dinners, even though they eat them at the same time.
I think "dinner" refers to the meal contents rather than the time of day. So dinner is a substantial meal whether it is eaten at lunchtime or teatime.
IE if you have your main meal at midday you have breakfast, dinner, tea and supper. If your main meal is in the evening then you have breakfast, lunch, dinner and supper.
NB - No allowance made in the above for extras such as snacks, brunch, elevenses, coffee and cake, tea and biscuits or Greggs.
Dinner parties and Tea parties are definitely not the same thing.
where is southampton?
I need to cycle there after work, for my tea, but i'm concerned that it is not where i left it this morning!
Southampton is in the South.
😆
