exxos's Atari, Amiga & retro forum

@mrbombermillzy I switched to your permissions and it shows up for me.. (anyone should also be able to open a poll in this forum section now)


Are you starting a new post in the public chat forum ?

Toddington is 2hrs for me so feasible as long as the dates fit in.

Weekend of the 29th out for me due to it being my wedding anniversary.

I'm not entirely sure my wife would agree, she's long suffering as it is in relation to my Retro collecting...

This thread is indeed in the GENERAL > CHAT FORUM PUBLIC, so should work.

Ive signed out again and back in, but still no luck.

@rubber_jonnie hang tight and I will get the available days up on the poll.

(Maybe I should also put up a poll for users wives/partners, to ask what sort of thing would make them attend too! :lol: )

@exxos do I need to wait a while for server rollout perhaps?

One more day won't hurt then :)

Its actually a bit of a sticking point for me as I spend weekends with Dawn. If I go on my own, shes on her own all day at home. If she comes, she just ends up sitting on her own (shes less social than me). But very boring day for her to be sat in the van several hours. Either way, its a bit unfair on her.
My mum said she could go keep her company, but then I just have 2 women wanting to go back home instead of 1 :lol: :roll:

Nope. Should be instant..

Can some other normal registered user try to see if you get the poll option ?

Aha!

So, Im guessing, as this thread started without poll permission, it cant be reinstated once open, but Ive just tried to start a new thread and its letting me create a poll.

I didnt want to create too many different CL3 threads, to stop things getting messy/confusing.

Oh well. Stand by for the CL3 poll thread I guess. :D

IIRC - you can only open a poll on a new topic.

Understandable. Though a poll in this thread could get "lost". I guess we could lock this thread and just use the one with the new poll...
