In my opinion, the forum would benefit from having seperate Irish/UK and Australian sections (as with classifieds). This would encourage people back and to participate rather than becoming more and more Australian based which seems to drive people away as they have little knowledge of Australian breeeding (Just as Aussies have little knowledge of Irish/UK)

Hi David, you make it sound as though there were a lot of Irish members banned from the forum. According to the our records that is not the case. You only have to look at how many advertise in classifieds but rarely use the forum.

Facebook has killed most forums and will continue to do so. As the younger generation filter through forums will almost vanish. The Irish have some very active pages and posts flying on Facebook.
