Talking BlackpoolWeb - New Owner
Hello to you all. First I would like to say a big thank you to Jason and all he has created. He has said he will stay on as an Admin, so hopefully he will still post and give me a bit of guidance from time to time.

A bit about myself:

Well I am 39, live in South Shore and have done for the last 3 years. I lived in Wirral, Merseyside for 17 years and then London, Kent and Surrey for 17 years. Then moved to Blackpool .
I trained as an Electronic Engineer with the MoD and gradually got into computers. I spent my last few years developing distributed information management systems for the MoD.

Anyway enough of that rubbish. I am passionate about Blackpool and would like to see it rise from the ashes we have today.
As for BlackpoolWeb, well I see it as a community forum first and foremost with the members as the core. I would like to attract more members and get more posting.

I will be honest I have not ran a forum before let alone owned one. I do have a few Blackpool related web sites. So I hope you will forgive any mess ups I make.

I would be very happy to hear members suggestions as to new things they would like to see? So please feel free to suggest things and I will do my best.

Bottom line is I want everyone to have fun.

Regards
Pete

That was a bit of a long serious post

Accy web is full of shit,with crap threads and a clicky membership.

There are lots of things our members can do........
Start new interesting threads.
Get into conversations about the town.
Have a look at the local newspapers and find things to discuss.
Dont rely on one word replies (e.g gaming threads).

IMO opinion, I have said it before I will again, it is the arcade that kills conversation. I will not have one on my site.

You dont need a great brain to start threads.
News stories are what this site was once about,that is what the locals are normally interested in.
I've ran forums since i started on the internet over 8 years ago so i know what i talk about most of the time.

From Thursday it is down to Pete to decide where he would like to take the site and i think he said some really good things in another thread.

Well I like the arcade but I also love to get involved in a good debate too. If something interests me I will talk forever, However sometimes its good to slip away for a day or so and just relax with the games.

And yes Jason Pete did come up with some good points too although I am struggling with just how many things could change. either way Im sure it will stay a good site.

The blog is a good idea but it's not free.
An RPG could be a laugh on here with more members.
Regular meet ups instead of annually.
More ideas from members to help the admins......tell us what you want.

I think the meets could be a way foward to bringing some newbies so long as quiet meets can be expected to start, maybe every 3 months. Im always up for a night out but that dosent mean I can always afford it.
would certainly try though lol..
where theres beer im never far behind lmao!!!!!
Not a big blog person, will have to get my thinking cap on
