I find this forum Is losing its popularity i found it use to be so informative and interesting ,is it that all posts have been covered in the past ? is it that Mod's have banned most members ? any one else feel the same ?

Not really - think most people just got tired with all the idiots on here with no other purpose but to cause trouble. You still have them, but if you learn to ignore them the site can still be helpful.

I don't think it's losing it's popularity by any means. I think that apart from some members being on holiday it has hit a quiet period. No disrespect to the other forums but they don't have hardly any postings.



I'm sure it'll 'liven up' soon.

Hans.



I've deleted this post as I think it was totally unnecessary.



We've all dropped clangers before so lets live and let live.

Could it be that North Cyprus has lost it's appeal ? let's face it, the forum was set up re ''A guide to North cyprus '' now if you look at the present posts i am not sure that the frum is reflecting that any more, just my thoughts !!

I totally agree that North Cyprus is losing it's appeal for people looking to take a holiday and for a place to live or buy a holiday home. This forum is a great guide for anyone looking to holiday, buy or live however there are very few people around that want to do any of those things at the moment.

I think it's a combination of things, there does seem to be a lot of negative posts lately and also there does seem to be some members who just want to stir things up, perhaps we all need to take a break from posting for a little while, or do as others are doing and go on to the other forum for a change.

hattikins. There are negative posts on some of the other forums as well unfortunately. Everyone needs a break from posting from time to time - perhaps some people have decided to do it at the same time. )



Have a look at the other forums - you see 1 or 2 people on there at any one time.

Now why does DC have to jib at StGeorge? perhaps its stuff like this that is past its sell by date! Why does DC always need to look at the negative bits of people? putting up StGeorges thread is childish, surely he has as much right to post as DC!



Soon you will just have a forum of DC, and DC and just DC, ..... another reason why folks have left is it not?.

StGeorgeI. It was nothing. I'm sure Hans didn't mean anything by it. Let's let it drop.

No1Doyen, its such a shame that someone with such a gift of the NC history as DC. Folks could put people off posting on this forum. Never even a discussion really, just down putting, and with some who have a 'softer' personality, they must think, oh heck Im off.

Dont mean to be nasty DC, just that it is tiresome, and you need a spanking.

This thread is now closed.

Sorry No1Doyen, spanking to us all, will get back onto thread.

NC still has a lot going for it, dont think its quieter here than any where else re building etc. Spain has taken a hammering as with a lot of the other sunny climates. Nobody has the dosh to fling around at the moment, or will have for several years to come, unless a miracle happens......
