Many thanks to go to all those involved in making this site available as quickly as this. I've only had time for a quick browse but I'm loving my new home already! Great functionality and speed. Fantastic job guys.

It's a pretty shameful indictment of Future's shabby treatment of us that Garth managed to design a nicer looking forum with more functionality - while keeping the spirit of the old place - in two days, while Future did sod-all in FIVE YEARS to improve GR for us.

Indeed. It's not even like we asked for a lot, is it? And we got purple lettering, gangsta make-overs and then strawberry floated over at the end to m erge with possibly the worst forum I've ever seen outside of ONM.

Absolutely fantastic job by everyone involved.

When I logged in it said there were 313 users already. Fair to say it has caught a mood.

Thank you everybody who put this site together at such short notice.

Yep, this. Feels like a great mixture of keeping GR alive, yet also a new beginning.

Fantastic works, boys!

Not only have you kept a community together in tough times, but you've also delivered a new haven that seemingly blows the pants off the old one.

Anika Rice would be proud! 8-)
