    I have to say I haven't seen a huge amount of the 'nastiness' you mention; I've moderated other forums in my time and I'm happy to say the members here generally aren't the 'keyboard warriors' I've seen elsewhere.

    Electric Mountain Bikes: No one will buy one?!..

    Problems With Search Facility

    Thanks John. We are just upgrading the forum software at the moment which will allow us to use the latest enhanced search facility. We had to disable the old one as our server was getting denial of service attacks. It should be resolved in the next few days.
