And now our forums are renamed too!
 
Not only have we had our home forcefully moved, we have lost the name of it too.

Change it back please!

For once I agree with you. :ok:

I think you might be F**ting against Thunder.

I see Fragrant Harbour still keeps its name.

stranger320 4th Mar 2013 03:40

and can they separate india from south east asia?

put them in their own area please!:ugh:

tgbgtgb 4th Mar 2013 04:26

Goodness gracious! A minor change! However shall I cope?

Old Akro 4th Mar 2013 04:30

PC police?

JohnMcGhie 4th Mar 2013 04:41

Old name back, please
 
Yes, I would beseech the mods to give us our old name back.

I live Dununder and I was born in Godzone, so I believe I am entitled to make the request :O

These are names our nations have "earned" over decades. I think both names may have come in to use roughly around the time that aviation began.

Please bring them back :ok:

It's unaustralian to call Australia its actual name, rather than its nickname :}
Please stick with the original :ok:

Dark Knight 4th Mar 2013 05:27

And, give the New Zealunders their own forum!

Don't lump them in with us.

The Green Goblin 4th Mar 2013 05:43

If there were no Kiwis around, who would make us feel better about ourselves? :E

There is a reason for the change of name. Since the forums were rearranged and Dunnunda forums moved to the top, we are continually getting rather odd threads, presumably because no one outside this region knows what Dunnunda meant.

Here is an example from today, a UK wannabe asking about a UK medical: http://www.pprune.org/nz-p-general-a...estion-uk.html

Old Akro 4th Mar 2013 06:37

Isn't that a clear message that the new format is confusing? PPRuNE Worldwide, but there is no UK, US, German or many other European threads.

Eastwest Loco 4th Mar 2013 07:11

I think..........

Hang on - called to prayer

Back later

EWL:}:ugh::{

The Green Goblin 4th Mar 2013 07:20

Which is why Tail Wheel we should have our forums moved back to our own zone and be done with the rest of them.

If its not broken, don't fix it.

Bring back D&G!

givemewings 4th Mar 2013 07:26

I thought it was kind of appropriate that D&G was almost at the bottom of the page- kinda like being 'Dunnunda' :}

DeRated 4th Mar 2013 11:55

The place for students, instructors and charter guys.
 
With a description such as that........ (apart from the title which means nothing to nobody)

Now you will get all the stuff you keep deleting "Which is the best flying school in whoop-whoop....!":sad:

So even with the new name people are confused as to what sections they should post in. Looks like the name change has had the desired effect then, NOT!!!!!

greybeard 5th Mar 2013 01:50

The way some of you carry on you could believe it is OUR forum not PPRUNEs

In spit of my tag, I was in at the beginning late 90s when it was a broadsheet only.

Like it or leave,
suck it up princesses,
it is no where as good these days anyway, too much me me me and crap answers to silly questions, far to many for sensible debate.

:ok:

Since the site was sold out to the yanks who then started giving out user details it all went to ****. What a shame that a once great resource is now just useful for random time wasting.

Evanelpus 5th Mar 2013 13:46


Since the site was sold out to the yanks who then started giving out user details
Ouch, that could be a minimum rebuke or a maximum ban.

Good luck!

The Green Goblin 5th Mar 2013 22:16

It is 'our' forum.

Without our participation (by the rules) and our continued visitation the site is meaningless and worth nothing.

I think we need a poll for D&G :)
