Can  someone read Big Gee's post and explain it to me. From the post I get that the trials are nothing to do with Wilkinsons and more to do with this guys set up.
When I get old I don't want people thinking
                      "What a sweet little old lady"........
                             I want em saying
                    "Oh Crap! Whats she up to now ?"

I think Gemma is the Wilkinsons representative, offering the trials from and for the site.
The site is seperate from Wilkinsons tho, I think thats Big Gee means.
Please don't be offended by my nickname 'Mortality'
As to its history it was the name of a character I played in an online game called 'Everquest'
The character 'Mortality Rate' was a female Dark Elf Necromancer, the name seemed apt at the time and has been used alot by me over the years.

I wouldn't stoop so low as to join a site that is willing to have me as a member.   ;)


Except perhaps this one....  ;D

But when a freebee is dangled in front of me, I loose all sense of shame and morality.
Its amazing what people will do if they think they'll get something free.

Well seeing as how all you lot have joined, I thought I better do too, so I did. Can't see me winning though, as it's the top ten posters between now and the 14th.  Still, you never know, it might even get warm one day....

Snap!

I think I will be uninstalling it soon.

Apart from a few videos I have found little or no communication between members so I am finding it a bit one sided! :-\

I did not get chosen but then I did not contribute.  I could not find anything to contribute to.  I like this site because the lastest topics are headlined, and you get a response quickly.  Also it is not dominated by experts.  Which means you get a delightful range of answers to the same question.  Thought I do very much appreciate the experts we do have.  I suppose this is confusing for some, but I like it because I can get the standard answers in a book, I like the querky answers to querky questions.  And then there is the querky humour, that is brilliant.

I wasn't posting because I'm already contributing to as many sites as I can manage.

Oh Dear, do you really have to sow those, not very exciting, especially the tom..is the saw good?

Sorry to sound so disenchanted but I was expecting something new and special.

Just caught up with this thread. Thought it was a promotional effort. Pretend we need you so that you patronise our shop effort.



Not exactly giving much away are they?


How awful to reject folk. Never mind. At least they now have a collection of people's e-mails for Spamming.
