So on to the site's future, and in simple terms it's time for a change.
While the site has been a challenge at times I have still enjoyed my time running it but now I have to focus on some other priorities in life and as part of a major change in my career I need to find someone to take over the ownership / day to day running the site, i.e. as the site administrator.
It's needs to be someone with a true passion for it because it does take a lot of time and commitment!
You will also need some technical skills on web site hosting (apache webserver, PHP, MySQL and SMF Forum Software).
We have been approached in the past by other forums offering to take this place over but I would really like to find someone to take the site on and forward in something similar to it's current guise.
So if your interested in helping or just want to ask any questions please drop me a line
As always I appreciate all the contributions, help and support you have all given me and the site over the past 4 years :notworthy: :notworthy:
Thanks,
SteveP

Not sure if you want to put it in the public domain or discuss privately but roughly how much does this forum cost to host and run per year and taking any moderation duties out of the equation, how much time does the admin side take up.
SteveP:
Costs are around £95 a month and time is variable but at least one day per week typically.
