I actually belonged to another site pre 2005 where I was helping one person, she was very rude to me and the moderator stepped in,   I left and came onto RC, best days work I ever did and no  verbal  abuse.
Long may it continue

Congratulations Rootschat!

It is hard to believe that it was some 14 years ago that I somewhat nervously asked a question about M.I s in Lanchester Churchyard. Subsequently I have "met" lots of interesting people and find it so comforting that this remains a site where expertise abounds and is valued.

I think that by way of celebration, all members should get a year's free membership.
