General Discussion
@Ziggy Where is the update from? Who met with Teignbridge Officers?
Temporary traffic lights going up again on Exeter Road this morning. Further down from Marine garage. Allow time as there were long delays yesterday.
Update on Manor Gardens Bridge … "Met with Teignbridge officers and we agreed they would get more specific costings so we can see what we need to find to install a new bridge. It cannot be replaced with a wooden bridge as construction guidelines have changed considerably in the last ten years, meaning the cheaper options are out. It’s really clear from the petition so far that locals ...
@Carer Then you'd presume wrong. Your comment is actually pretty flippant. My posts so far have covered the lack of Councillor integrity, wasting taxpayers money, ignoring local people,etc. Discussion/ debate tends to focus on topics where there's disagreement, difference or the need for improvement. If you're not interested in discussion, then why not scroll past those listings? I am ...
@TRB . I presume that all you want then is a platform where you can moan about everything and anything. If you are not interested in anything happening in Dawlish, events or notices, then why not scroll past those listings. After all, no one is forcing you to read them.
@Teign, events are posted under Notices, so if you unfollow Notices, you won't see events in your discussion list. I am fully aware the site is old-fashioned, over-complicated and needs simplifying. I will eventually modernise it, but it is what it is for the time being.
@Webmaster I already have, can't unfollow Events though. You miss the point, most people will not be aware they are following everything by default, they'll just see one general forum that they assume is Discussion, flooded with pieces of information that evidently aren't leading to discussion. The discussion section becomes devalued. Me unfollowing Notices and other sections won't make a ...
Just unfollow Notices @Teign, as I've explained, and your experience on here will be the same as it has been for the last 10 years.
If you flood a discussion forum with posts that are just pieces of information that evidentlly aren't leading to discussion, then the discussion section becomes devalued.
The discussion section has always shown posts from all the groups you are following by default. When someone signs up, it automatically makes you a follower of General Discussion, News and Notices. You can join other groups, although not many people post on them now. An old example is Cooking with Tallyrand . This is just the way the site works. The only thing that has recently changed, ...
