  How hilarious that there's no admin to go to, but they still deleted the "naughty" thread...

  Gutted!

  
  

  Cancelled my Gardeners World Mag Subscription as it no longer has any value without this forum.

  
  

  Don't really like the layout of the Gardeners Corner Forum, but it's the better of what's available for me.  Signing up later on today.

  I would guess someone reported it and AI removed it.

  It just takes a little time @Cottage Compost because there are separate sections for specific topics, but it's not difficult, and people are very helpful there.
  I've said it before, and on another thread today - that separate, properly named sections, should have been something present on this forum. It saves endless repetition.

  Just cancelled my GW mag subscription- should have done it years ago, but felt a strange sense of loyalty.  Not any more 😀

  I have paid for the year, but won’t renew it either. I haven’t read the magazine in many months and the premium content isn’t worth it. Without forum, it’s useless now. 

  I ♥ my garden.

  And it's easier to lose irritating people in the crowd

  In London. Keen but lazy.

  I wonder if 'he who posts late at night with the private profile' will join G'sC.
  At least we'll be able to properly ignore him and the mods will sort him out if he starts the behaviour he regularly indulged in on this one. Result

  I do hope so, @Fairygirl, and if the person who has it in for me could also leave, it would be great.

  Everybody, write your feelings about this closure in a letter and send it to the Letters page of the GW magazine for publication. Let the wider world know what a lousy organisation they are supporting. I have.

  On Gardener's Corner, if you click on home in the top left hand corner, it brings up a list of posts. You can then filter by Most Views, Most Replies, Most Likes and Recently Active.
  
  I find this easier.
  
  You can also click on Spy on the right and it brings up a list of new posts.
  
  Hope this is helpful!
