I am a bit of a numpty on this but how has this forum been set up? Does it cost any money to run? Could it be a long term thing and grow to replace the AcousticLife forum should it go tits up or otherwise?

Hi Phil,
It was set-up a couple of years ago when we were having lots of forum access problems at Acousticlife. The forum software there was very buggy, people struggled to register and access the forum and we were afraid that we would all lose touch with each other if it disappeared. This then became the back-up, so that in times where we couldn't access the main forum, we could still remain in touch with each other and post. It became useful when Acousticlife changed software and a lot of things were lost. It's become more active recently too following the problems caused by Acousticlife's changeover from OysterHouse to Blaze, and the access/bookmark/login issues that resulted.
Currently it costs no money to run, and it is planned to keep it going long-term.
