Like I said BB the proposal route is fruitless and pointless.
You need to inform your friends that the revolution is coming and the time for "free-loading" will soon be over!!!

Like I say, it's been built as a proof of concept, just to see what sort of thing would be "difficult" to implement.Diamond Dave wrote: Tue May 20, 2025 10:41 am Yes Winfort I do remember - well there you go, you already have the basis of a "central agency"
Not surprised about the negative feedback from the RPRA because it involves changing the current practices.
Honestly - how easy would online registration be along with payment of subs etc etc etc.
Keep it all to hand Winsfort. I think you will soon reap the benefits of your efforts and initiatives.
If I'm honest I found it rather easy, and had most of it setup in about 3 days, admittedly that's probably just down to how my brain works!
If someone is interested in picking it up, then that's fine by me, in whatever form that may be!

No need for comments like that BB. I have been courteous in not calling you and your friends at the RPRA 'dinosaurs' because I know it touched a nerve, so no need for you to be condescending.Bowbroom wrote: Tue May 20, 2025 5:09 pm Seems a repeat of what you said last year. No doubt you will be instructed what to do nearer the time by your friend the prime mover again

Well done Winsfort. The RPRA have no concept of how easy modernisation could be.Winfort Lofts wrote: Tue May 20, 2025 6:38 pmLike I say, it's been built as a proof of concept, just to see what sort of thing would be "difficult" to implement.Diamond Dave wrote: Tue May 20, 2025 10:41 am Yes Winfort I do remember - well there you go, you already have the basis of a "central agency"

You really must start to read what is written, my comments were not condescending ( an accusation levelled by your friend the ring master in the past) they were a statement of fact, you made the same statements last year following the lead by the main mover and his lieutenants.Diamond Dave wrote: Tue May 20, 2025 9:16 pmNo need for come like that BB.

Clearly you and your friends obviously detest and despise the way the RPRA is constituted and administered, the answer is simple, go away and form another association but remember that will take hard work and effort, are you ready for that? best of luck, if you succeed people will have another choice
ATB to everyone as usual

Thats a great idea BB. I wonder if anyone else has thought of doing that?
May I recommend that you join the revolution. Your guidance and knowledge of how your current system works would be invaluable. Then we will know what NOT to do in the future for the members of the NRPA
