What is happening to this forum? - Techwatch: Satellite TV forums, FTA, Cable, Hardware, & Tech forums

Since the merger of SH with TW things have gone down hill fast. No one seams to be around anymore, its very sad as Sh was a brilliant site. I am sad to say but I no longer look on here first for any help and advice. I hope I am wrong but I think its the beginning of the end

What is "SH" and "TW"?

Believe me I flick around most of the "Forums", this site "Seems" to me to have an excellent mix. By the way, how do you get to be a Senior Member in eight months?

Try not to be so negative, maybe that's what makes you feel the way you do.

TechWatch merged with a well establish forum called SatelliteHelp a month
back.

Madrat was one of our active members over at SatHelp and rattled up some excellent info in his time over there. Our post counts migrated over with us when the forums merged

I have only been on this forum a month as well - and look at my posting stats!

You can either access the smilies by using the Post Reply, or if you use the quick reply you need to cick the Go Advanced button to acces the smilies.
