Hi Glad to see you guys here.

Wanted to second the request for the Building & DIY board (along with the others that Pheid requested). I've just got PP to extend my kitchen and build a loft extension, I don't know how I'll cope without your help.

As you may see I've been evangelising on TMF - just my favourite boards. Can I suggest others do the same.

Well done to Stooz and Clariman! I'm more than happy to offer any assistance I can - financial or practical.

We now need to make sure as may TMF visitors as possible end up finding this site - any thoughts on how to get Lemonfool up the Google search rankings? At the moment "lemonfool" returns a lot of (tasty sounding) recipes!

Excellent work Stooz and Clariman for getting this set up so quickly, you've really epitomised the spirit of TMF.

Many thanks indeed to you both,
Accy

I just started a new thread to capture requests/nominations for people's favourite Fool boards that they would like added. I have no power to do anything but I thought it might be better to collect those in a specific thread instead of having them scattered and potentially buried amongst the outpouring of joy here. Hope that's OK and people consider it helpful.

If clariman/Stooz think it is in the wrong place then maybe it can be transplanted to somewhere better. If so then that would instantly demonstrate the increased sophistication of this forum's software vs the creaky old Fool forum software :)

Ooohhh - emoticons :shock:

LOOK - I JUST EDITED ONE OF MY PREVIOUS POSTS!!!!!! I couldn't do this on the old site. Am I the first to go back and edit a Fool post? Do I win a prize? :)

I can work on the layout over time and provide some of the fools tools, like recs, and crowns etc - lists of "best helpers"?
Keep posting the room suggestions and I will do them in bulk.

¡Hola mi amigos! Great to finally make it over here. Still no activation email but thank you to Stooz for letting me in anyway! Also thanks for setting up the replacement accommodation so quickly. Did someone mention biscuits? :D

Great work getting this up and running so quickly - hopefully it will get a few mentions from the financial bloggers such as Monevator etc.

Yes, I would like to see a Pensions sipp board, also computer related discussion and the return of jokers corner! However I find the emojis a real TURN OFF!!

Well done so far!

I was being a bit silly with the emojis; overcome with the joy of maybe having a new home for the UK Fool community. Personally I wouldn't have an issue if emojis got turned off (if that's possible) and would probably even prefer that. One can always use the occasional old-school textual <semi-colon><right-parenthesis> if needed to avoid misunderstanding.

I'm in! Many thanks for setting this up. I just hope a mass migration of Fools comes this way so that we can still enjoy level headed advice from talented and supportive individuals. Well Done. Paul

Hi, Am a long time lurker/learner from the Motley Fool board. I look forward to this site replacing the old Fool site and thanks for setting this up. Maybe in time to come I'll make the odd (hopefully not to odd) contribution.

Thanks Plodder

Another expatriate!

Lots of names I recognise. Will it become a community I wonder?

Does this BB software have the ability of granting moderator status to users?

Lemon will be a lemon if we can't get the moderator-based ethos of old ...
