We've managed on this forum to not have the slavish politics at all and any costs posts on here. Not every issue has to have a political spin.

lol have you read this forum, shanreagh?

Ohhh, on top!

I've just joined the other two sites so will no doubt see some of you over there. I've really enjoyed the banter, puns, general cheekiness and the helpful advice on here over the years.

Just going to sign up on TMMB. Not a regular poster, but always lurk, and love to get advice from gardening experts.

For those that don't know - there is a thread in Real Estate on NZ Issues that is titled 'Sign in from Trade Me'.
Quite a few regulars have done so, so feel free to pop in and say Hi so we know you are still around. Open Invitation to everyone.
(Except ..... lol ;) )

FYI, go visit the Real Estate section on tmmb, and you will find some familiar threads. Wait til later this arvo though, as these things take time.

See you over there...

I have and I have also been on ******** just after all the O & P ones went there. No moderation and politics everywhere.

As they did here on TM, I am sure they can make a a political issue out of 'it is raining today'.

I've not found this capacity on this board and the world is not all politics. Perhaps the TM moderation, such as it was, stopped the political excesses.
I've been reading this board since I found the boards, father was a real estate agent, I used to work on Govt land sector and family is the LL of three properties.

The serving of advice without a side of politics has been the strength of this board. I will miss it.

Never used to rain under the National Government.

I take it this is the last day for these message boards? I mostly just watch, have learned some things, have enjoyed many exchanges with regulars, been amused by the many and varied examples of human interaction and - let's just face it - plain weirdness sometimes.
It's been fun, ka kite.
