Given that the background is all white I’m going to start a #efestssowhite campaign. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm also used to it now so I can't remember what I preferred about the old website which is a very precise level of grump. I said in another thread I do like the stats for each thread though as the internet is a competition in constantly trying to win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deebeedoobee Posted September 13, 2020 Report Share Posted September 13, 2020 I like the way long posts are shortened ( with the option to expand if needed),so you can scroll past crap or things you have seen before. Given that down votes seem to cause a lot of grief/ misunderstanding should these be removed? I'm neither for or against as I tend to scroll past stuff that is obviously posted by keyboard terrorists to troll. Just a thought. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good idea, though you are really putting temptation in front of those few who engage in downvoting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, let's get down to the nitty gritty. Would you mind awfully if I dressed as a Roman Catholic priest for 'our' first date? Please feel free to not answer that question. In fact, for the love of all that is holy, please do not answer that question! Only it's just that I think I look my prettiest in a cassock. PS - Sorry about the very disturbing image that I have projected within the last sentence that I wrote above. PPS - I think squirrelarmy is well jel, man. What do you think?

That sounds completely reasonable, I'll throw on my best yoghurt and stick (vanilla crunch corner and pooh). I imagine they are but let it be known all of efests, there's plenty of priest17 for everybody. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sawdusty surfer Posted September 13, 2020 Report Share Posted September 13, 2020 eFests has changed. I noticed it immediately and thought that something was wrong with my laptop then saw that the eFests hamsters trundeling around in their wheel had got a new wheel. Was looking forward to leaping into my Victor Meldrew mode to complain..... "It's changed, don't like it." Damn, site now even crisper and shiner....

Perfectly pitched. I guess that means that we're going to have an open relationship then? I don't mind, I just want your baby. I've got the pram already. Fail to plan, plan to fail and all that.
