Welcome to the new Bar Italia Forum.
Unfortunately, attempts to recover the old forum (https://baritalia.activeboard.com/forum.spark?aBID=93104) have so far proven fruitless so I decided to set this one up.
This forum should be mobile friendly and is integrated with the Tapatalk mobile app.
Please spread the word and let's try to rebuild the community!
Wow, this takes me back!
Welcome back
@Kulabeth 8)
Yey! I've been lost without the very occassional geeky Pulp chatter
Categories, what a time to be alive - nice work Ian!
Thanks
@Ian for your hard work!! :D
Amazing work!!
Good heavens - and now the original messageboard has come back!
Yay, new forum!
Hi everyone. Thanks, Ian, for all the hard work on setting this up. Is this community funded? Glad it's back. Looking forward to the film later in the year.
oh my God, THANKS THANKS THANKS IAN. You've just made my day!!!!!
Welcome back
@Jean and
@Sr. Helvetica I have paid for the domain name for 10 years and connected it to existing web space. Whilst donations towards the forum or my website are possible, both will always remain free at point of use.
\o hello o/
Amazing effort! Thanks to all!
Only just got round to registering, our new home looks great. Even the woodchip paper on the wall is charming :)
Req : Is there a "All the latest threads" view, or even a sidebar that can contain a list of recent threads?
(By which I mean, if someone posts to a 7 month old thread, it bumps to the top, not just the new threads.. .. in 7 months, obv, 'cos the site's not that old yet!)
The old site was a higgledy piggledy mess of everything all together, whilst here I have to open each section to check for recent posts in each.
I prefer the higgledy piggledy mess :D
At the top of the screen, there are options for Unread Posts and Updated Topics. That should show them all in one list. I will see if there is a plugin to give users the option of viewing all forums in one.
Hello again. Good to be back and you've redecorated
Welcome back
@saw119. Hope you enjoyed Suede earlier in the year. I tried to message you on the old forum to see if we could arrange a meet but that's around the time it went down.

They were incredible, as usual. Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought that my two favourite bands as a teenager would still be so vital and operating at such a high level. We're pretty lucky.
They were good but if only Brett had a bit of Jarv's humour. Still, Suede and Manics' double-header tour this autumn should be class.

I don't think I've ever heard Brett tell a story, humorous or otherwise, on stage.
It's the generic south in him :(
