Sorry if this isn't allowed but just wondering if anyone knows what's going on with another more manchester/north west focussed site - lets call it the "Small dark journal" or "Lusty Babes Bookings" something similar to that.

the forum still seems to be there, but can't log in or re register or anything, I found with it being focussed on the area a valuable tool a few years back. Can anyone tell me if it's still actually running?
and if so help me get in contact with the admins to try get access - thanks

all you do is ask questions, try contributing then you may get answers

I absolutely agree with you but be careful..... the plonkers aka Stapler and cryton123 will be calling you for a negative post

Sorry I don't have much info to share at the moment, I'm fairly new to this forum and have only just really returned to punting (I've had maybe 1 or 2 in the past few years)

I was more of an active member of the place I hinted at above, I've been punting since about 2004 but less actively in the past 4 years, I used to frequent sandys, WFB and buntys quite often but later I Relied on AW for indies. I'm trying to make a return, but looking for the right girl - I can be very picky and don't deal well with bait n switches or inaccurate likes lists etc

Yeah it’s still running, the admins are on here I believe. Try PMing for their contact details.

[nropnrop]

Cheers rich, at least someone was actually helpful

Sadly, you are proving to be a not very valuable tool here.

[winkywanky]

Unlike yourself

A pleasure. I know the admin isn’t making it known of his link, hence the need to PM. They’re happy for their mobile number to be shared by PM though, which is good of them.

Just a little reminder of the rules. -   

 11 Other punting forums
Discussion about other punting forums is not prohibited but many are often very hostile. Other forums are also anti-punter; therefore it is not in the interests of punters to give them publicity. Posting links to other sites is prohibited as is slagging off. Use your noodle. We are allowing links in Punting Abroad section.

[RandomGuy99]

The other site is working fine for me.

Has someone had too many drinks over Christmas and killed the brain cells that were storing their password?

[Jonestown]

Yeah it’s still running, the admins are on here I believe. Try PMing for their contact details.

With only seven questions/posts under his belt I doubt he is able to PM anyone on here.

Cheers Dave,

So I didn't actually break any rules "Discussion about other punting forums is not prohibited"
" but many are often very hostile" yeah they aren't kidding about that jeez!

I didn't link to any site or slag anyone off, I've said why I have few posts on here, all I wanted to know was if that place was still going, or if I was chasing a dead horse trying to get back on there (and maybe some help getting back on there if anyone was willing)

Maybe instead of just ripping on someone who's fairly new to the forum and being so hostile a helping hand would in turn make them post more valuable content.

I'm not here to make enemies, and when I do have some info or a report I'll gladly share

Ha I wish 

I had it on permanent log in (stupidly didn't store the password)
I've tried resetting the password, says there is no account tied to the email address - despite me having emails from them dating back to 2010

I've tried re-registering, I get approval and then still can't log in.
Hence why I was wondering if it was still going

I've tried emailing multiple addresses but just get bounce backs so asked on here as a last resort

Shame, he’s missing out on the contact details.

There are several issues with the Manchester site
The first is that according to claims made on here in the past, the supposed owner/admin hijacked the site and stole it back after he'd sold it to one of the members here.
During that alleged hijack the forum was seemingly moved to a different server and many of the user accounts were lost in the process.
Some were able to regain their accounts through the help of a member here acting as intermediary, but since then the user database seems to have been reverted at least twice - it seems to fail and then get restored from an ancient backup.
I can't log into it any more, and attempts at creating new accounts have failed, is some cases because the authentication e-mail never arrives, in other cases because it contains an invalid link.
Only way of restoring lost accounts on there now is if someone on here who still has a valid account there acted as intermediary and contacted the admins with a list of user accounts. Unfortunately the member who did it last time can't do it now.
The truth re the legal status of the site in uncertain, all we know is what was reported on here.

As to its use, last time I logged on the only few other users were the Manchester pimps posting adverts

That might explain why I can't log in anymore, doesn't recognise me. No great loss as there wasn't much happening if we're honest.

Thanks for the clarification, seems like it's not worth pursuing anyway then. It'd been a while since I'd used it, used to be a good place with comps and offers from parlours and agencies, but it's obviously gone down hill

[Icarus]

Would be interested if someone could help me get back on this site.

Had an L3 account there but upon trying to log in I get a 'username not recognised' error message. I even registered a new account and got an email saying it had been authenticated but then I can't even login in to that new account either.

That's whats happening to everyone else
Nothing will change until Angel actually decides to sort it out. He must know there's an issue

No point saying more - we'll just end up breaking the rules here if we do

FFS what's your problem??? I posted a gentle reminder on the rules with a  at the end, this was to ensure the members who aren't aware do not post links, did I say you broke any rule and can you point out where I 'ripped on you', or was in any way hostile.

Davie, I don't think he meant to criticise you. The last three sentences look like they're aimed at the others, not you. I think the first sentence alone was yours. He's just put the post together badly. I think he's thanking you for not being critical of him

[dubs]

Yeah I wouldn't bother, it is in terminal decline.  The NW section of this forum is 10 times as active.

Fair enough Scutty, I see what you mean.   

[nropnrop]

Davie, Sorry for mix up, Scutty was right, was thanking you for posting the rule, and wanting some of the others to chill or be a little less hostile.

what I find quite funny is despite being accused of adding little value at first I've sparked up a conversation that has brought to light for a few of us what's going on with that other place that shall not be named, and thus is a valid topic

No probs mate, sorry for any misunderstanding on my part.    

[lewisjones23]

The NW forum is on its absolute arse and has been for some time

2 or 3 posts a day, mostly by parlours advertising fat old dogs

All of the relevant info is on here now, leave the other place to crying to each other about why it is so quiet
