	I've been back since Christmas time and I'm disgusted at the total lack of interest shown by the staff of GR. .

	so sad yet I have been saying for at least the last couple of years that I thought GR would be gradually downgraded by the owners so they could roll it over into fmp as "no longer viable, despite the orders given by the competitions board when they bought the company.

	I've found her Community Manager Advisor 24 Apr 2015 17:27 Afternoon folks. I have heard from comments on FB that my initial reply which I posted earlier this month didn't post ? I did add one I promise but looking again this afternoon, I think I can now see what happened so at least in the future, I should know what to look for. This is a side of the board that I am still learning about I am afraid.%3A-S Anyway , my apologies for any misunderstanding. So just to offer a little bit of information about me, my name is as you have seen Alison. I have been with the company now for over 11 years, have been doing genealogy on and off for more than 30 years and of course more on than off for the past 11 ! I haven't actually found any skeletons as such in my cupboards, but have discovered some interesting stories about my relatives - some good and some not so good so fairly typical of family research I think

	Alison posted, but didn't think to see if it came up on the board? well that IS encouraging .....

	FB Team were asked twice as to why she had not posted but they did not answer that question - so par for the course.

	One day they'll wake up and realise that the paying members are the ones on here but by then, will it be too late and the last person here will have slammed the door
