The records on this site are rubbish compared to other sites it certainly isn't value for money, I have met some wonderful people on GR who have become very close life long friends even those who we have sadly lost. I add to a couple threads on the chat board like Mersey's always nice to chat to pleasant people on there but sometimes I read some of the threads on chat and think OMG kill me now, like the ones people post to announce they haven't time to answer emails etc .....it has certainly lost its sparkle...if it went would I miss it no not all, so to answer to your question ..yes its well past its sell by date. |

Disregarding the ebb and flow of posts on this board, it is really apparent that the research boards are less busy, I think that's partly because those who were going to research have been doing so for years and have put their money into sites with more records and partly because the last major source of info put online, the 1911 census, has been and gone, and those who are younger/newer to genealogy possibly need the 1921 census as a kick start? |

I'm sticking with the GR Chat boards. I think most fellow contributors are gradually getting used to some of my quirky comments. Words are my favourite insanity & long may these avenues of conversations continue. |

Why is there a chat board if it's not for chat |

Surely one person's piece of news is not another's |

Like AnnC as I live alone I look in on the chat board and I think there are many more like us who post now and then on threads that we can add to. |

I think it is probably number 3 Graham. They are always saying they have millions of members. If they have then not many of them use the community boards. |

I don't use Facebook Joeva - think too many people put far too much information on there. |
