The Sea Angler discussion board is currently down due to teething problems re the introduction of a new log-in system. They are working on putting matters right, and hopefully, the site will be once more up and running very soon. There have been problems with offensive posts, abusive language etc, so Sea Angler are investigating a failsafe mechanism/criteria very possibly similar to that in operation here.
On a personal note as regards the TSF site, it appears that a very small numbers of their forumites (no names no pack drill), are intent on bad-mouthing Sea Angler at every opportunity. This is very sad, but unfortunately access to computers and the internet is not confined to individuals with a mental age of more than 5½.
