personally, I've found the Utopia threads quite good fun today, and a vast improvement on the kerfuffle (love that word) of last week. I can understand the "another board" arguement, but where do you stop ? we have a few "serious" boards, surely one General board plus the chat board is sufficient ?

hence the reason I thought we could get a special "daft" board for things like this...loads of people are enjoying them so why stop it...but would be easier for those involved in the laff to access them thru their own board!! just a thought .... Jill x

I don't want to be a party pooper but to me they are swamping the board and i find it very confusing. especially as debbie says when theya re all in capitals. Maybe it could be condensed to just a few threads. Ann Glos

I havnt a clue what the utopia thing is all about all I can see is a load of capital letters threads and they are everywhere. They seem to have invaded the boards and as there are so many I havnt read what they are about yet. I did click onto a couple but I couldnt understand them.

Please please....could you set up a unique message board for the SS Utopia messages? Then we could see all the threads at the same time for our sailing etc... go on......you know you want to... Jill x (I'll bring more alcohol with me on the trip if you do!!)
