totally agree. I dont even think ayting has been posted in the last few days. I got loads of ideas too. Id love to do what i did with the Kylie & Dannii forum. It went from lower top 20 to number 2. I think whoever gets its we should work together and get this forum sorted
I'll be more than happy if the other would help the new mod (and of course Shaun) to increase the popularity of this forum!

An interesting article:
Giving Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso equal-number one status at McLaren is a huge mistake, according to four-time world champion Alain Prost.
McLaren boss Ron Dennis has always insisted that his drivers are free to race each other, but Prost, a four-time world champion between 1985 and 1993, believes taking this approach will simply cause a ruckus stance is simply playing with fire.
"I think it's a mistake to have two cars of the same status in the same team," the 52-year-old Frenchman told Spanish newspaper El Pais.
"In the end it will work against them because it will create too many tensions."
Alonso's tension was already obvious after Hamilton's Canadian Grand Prix win as he produced a ragged performance, and then declared he was "uncomfortable" with the balance in the team.
And following Hamilton's victory in the United States race after a straight fight with the Spaniard, his mood is unlikely to have improved.
Prost knows a thing or two about inter-team rivalry at McLaren, having been paired with Ayrton Senna for two years.
Senna won the 1988 title in a good-natured battle, but tensions exploded a year later when the Brazilian broke an agreement with Prost and won at Imola.
The season culminated in a collision at Suzuka in Japan that resulted in Prost retiring from the race and Senna winning before being disqualified for his part, handing the Frenchman a third title.
Such was Senna's disgust that when they arrived at the same race 12 months later, he vowed revenge on Prost, who had moved to Ferrari by that point.
Prost, who needed to win to keep his hopes alive, got the edge off the startline but Senna simply drove him off the road at the first corner, putting both out of the race and handing the Brazilian the title."
The Frenchman believes McLaren's hi-tech simulator which has been so lauded by the team is helping Hamilton, but not by enough
"Hamilton has used the simulator much more than Alonso and he drives more smoothly than the Spaniard," he added. "As a result I think it is easier for McLaren to adjust their cars to Hamilton's characteristics.
"But that doesn't disguise the fact that Alonso is a super driver, a great, great driver."
