Oooh yes - the alarm bell would be handy - 'puters upstairs, TV's downstairs. It would ring and I could rush upstairs to join in!!

Such fun!! LOL

Maggie - maybe you could elect for the 'silver' membership which comes complete with flashing lights AND an alarm bell that rings to alert you ..........

What they need is a personal red pointy arrow for dolts like me!

I always miss everything!
I'll add to a thread and 10 minutes later it's roaring (not through what I've put - that's normally ignored)
When I get back to it - it's all over - contentious postings have been deleted and I've missed out on 'putting my opinion across in a strident manner' LOL

maybe for an inflated annual sub, you could get GR+ ........ like Skyplus etc - then just set it to record whichever board you want and you could even go out and socialise then, without missing anything lol

Could we have slow motion replays, then maybe GR would see who is actually wielding the wooden spoon. Perhaps real time is too fast for them.

Ah - maybe then, for "certain members" the GR boards could be set onto rerun mode at a couple of minutes after real time.

That way we'd (a) ignore everything they said because it would be so out of date and (b) they could not hit RR as it would be invalid.

Simple.

Do you think GR have the technology?

Only downside would be that you won't be able to 'RR' on a rerun thread ....... ;O)P

.............................................................. i only went for a little bit of 'me time' soaking in the bath - i think GR should introduce the GR iPlayer to rerun threads for those of us that dare to dip into real life lol
