| Australians are there any in the forums??? Posted: 2/1/2006 4:17:02 PM | BIG HELLO to all my fellow wowsers, wombats and water-enthusiasists'...(are there shark-nets here?)
I did read most of your Australia Day thread Ginger'...well done mate, you worked hard to keep the spirit of that ticking over. (I'll start popping into the Off Topic stuff more then, too).
Hope everyone finds what they're lookin' for here.
Cheers. H'W'.  | |

| Australians are there any in the forums??? Posted: 2/1/2006 5:10:20 PM | ^^^ Cheers hairywombat, had to fly the flag on Australia day (even if the north americans weren't that interested lol).

Don't say that too loudly, as it's against the rules to 'chat' in the forums. What we may be able to do is lobby for an Australian forum, similar to the already existing UK, Canadian and American ones (in which the anti-chat rules are a bit less stringent). I'll put the query to the mods and see what they reckon. I guess we'd include the NZers as well. An ANZAC forum sound good? | |

| Australians are there any in the forums??? Posted: 2/1/2006 6:57:41 PM | I think it's worth a try Ginger'...there are quite a lot of Aussies here, not so many in the Forums, it seems.
(NOT sure about the KIWIS'...they're just trouble......joke).
More the merrier really; if it could get off the ground. | |
|
| Australians are there any in the forums??? Posted: 2/1/2006 8:08:34 PM | | Well I tried, but the suggestion thread got deleted?! So either that's a no, or their considering it... I don't know. I suppose if an Aus/NZ forum doesn't appear in the near future we'll know that it's a no. | |
|
| Australians are there any in the forums??? Posted: 2/1/2006 11:01:56 PM | Really mate? OK......no worries.
I noticed another thread got pulled today that I tried to answer; and even one of my posts' got pulled other day......yet I've seen worse. O well, nature of the beast mate...lol.
Hi again to all the other Aussies floating around. Get your hairy butts in here and say G'DAY......
Then again, I guess if I wasn't such a ''wombat'' I could mail a few of the gals and cut out the middle man... | |
|
| Australians are there any in the forums??? Posted: 2/1/2006 11:08:57 PM | | Yeah mate, I sent a message to the bigfish "the Admin" to see about an Aussie forum. Will keep all the Aussies (and NZers) posted if there's any progress. | |

| Australians are there any in the forums??? Posted: 2/1/2006 11:39:58 PM | Yeah, but it's a bit of a chicken and egg thing. If there was somewhere for us to hang out there'd be more of us hanging around. There's plenty of us on the site, just not too many that participate in the forums. Yet. Reckon it's a northern hemisphere conspiracy to try to keep us southies away.... lol  | |
|
| Australians are there any in the forums??? Posted: 2/2/2006 12:10:11 AM | Good point. Except don't get started on Conspiracy Theories...next thing they're talkin' about Mel Gibson, and if he's Australian or American...lol.
(Geez there's some weirdo's here mate...LMAO).
Not US of course............ | |
|
| Australians are there any in the forums??? Posted: 2/2/2006 10:37:21 PM | OR Russell Crowe. (LUCKILY we know he's a Kiwi...lol).
MAYBE we should offer free beer or chocolate to get more Aussies' in?
ON TOPIC: Not today. lol. O WELL, they won't let US in anyways............... | |
|
| Australians are there any in the forums??? Posted: 2/3/2006 3:05:05 AM | GOOD NEWS AUSSIES (and new zealanders)! The big fish himself said that he was going to add an Aussie/NZer forum at some point. Hooray! Now I'm sure he is really busy, so we'll probably have to wait a while, but there we go. One day we'll be able to get to gether and forum-up southern-style  | |

| Australians are there any in the forums??? Posted: 2/5/2006 9:55:39 PM | Clearly not enough, coz we ain't shy and there's plenty on the site.
Just don't complain when I walk from boredom, or gettin' grumpy......lol.
SIGH. | |

| Australians are there any in the forums??? Posted: 2/6/2006 1:04:56 AM | | Seems like the Canadians outnumber everyone else. My theory is that it's because it's winter there and therefore they're more likely to stay inside and talk on the net, whereas there's lots of things we could be doing outside in the summer sun. That and the fact we don't have our own place, so people check out after a brief look around. | |

| Australians are there any in the forums??? Posted: 2/6/2006 1:22:23 AM | canadians outnumber everyone else coz that is where the website was formed im guessing from reading around....
been on here for awhile... just the single parents and cooking and recipe forums... dabble in a bit of everything else.... theres really only so much advice you can give if you are saying the same thing over and over again in the broken hearts and relationships... its drains a girl ya know...lol...
do you know how hard it is to explain different style of foods and crap so they can understand....lol... but it is all in good fun... and trying to educated them in aussie cuisine..lol...
YAY for our own forum... i suggested this months ago to another fellow aussie in the profile reviews... some chicks couldnt understand why he was so vague in his profile....lol... aaah ya get that...

| Australians are there any in the forums??? Posted: 2/6/2006 2:51:36 PM | HI N'......You should try humor threads...it's cut-throat over there...lol.
The cultural ''divide's'' are a bit of a problem sometimes.
LOL on the vague profiles...guess some of us Aussie men't be bothered enough with all that, meself included!
Nice to ''meet'' you too anyways...guess we can only wait and see what happens with the Forum.
(WE have a cuisine??).  | |
