Multiply Message

Please read the message that Multiply have put at the top of the home page , It appears that they are now pulling out of the Social Networking and so it looks as if we will have to maybe migrate to another Social Networking site before the 1st of December.

  1. It might be worth the consideration of setting up a P2P forum site. Not difficult to get up and running but server fee' would be required. I hosted a forum on an American web server which also ran a web site that I had. There are plenty of UK based servers that are able to host forum boards.

  10. I have never been happy with the Multiply site ,I'v said so on at least one occasion- and only used it out of loyalty to Derek Leese ,but now that ,sadly, he is no longer with us I think we should all use the Eagle 105.

  11. Who's kidding who. Have you ever Googled "Eagle 105" - There's an Eagle 105.7, an Eagle 105 Manual, however if you go for just "Eagle 105" then all you'll get is Augusta's Classic Rock, with John Boy & Billy Mornings, and Nikki Sixx at Nights! Think I'll stick to facebook, thank you very much....

  12. I think we are jumping the gun.remember this site was started on MSN.and then changed to multiply very easy,and it is a [ROYALS ONLY] site,We do not have the same members as the EAGLE 105club as they have NONE ROYALS such as RNF [infantry] BLUES, BLUES /ROYALS so how could you have a ROYALS reunion? MULTIPLY said that they will migrate us to another server SO PLEASE WAIT AND GIVE THEM A CHANCE

  14. I agree with Denis, we do not need to jump the gun at this stage, Denis and I have tried to see how it was possible to get onto Proboard and we came across a lot of problems getting on there, after trying for ages we did manage to get onto a forum board but there was no way of adding new members and we think if anyone tried to get on there they would more than likely give up through frustration, also it is as Denis said we are a Royals only BB and we would come up with a load of problems as far as the reunion goes, sorry to say that if this was to be the case then I would have no alterative but to hand over the reunion to someone else and the BB, although I promised Derek that I would keep the BB going and so I do not want to let him down over this so I hope that we can find a way to carry on with another Social Networking site as Royals only BB.

  15. We should leave it to John to make the decisions & then submit his comments to the members.
    I do not agree with Dennis!s comment about the RNF (infantry) We all know who he means and his comment was not called for. Just because there was "agro" between some members in the past, does not mean it has to continue,
    Some of our members where in Infantry Regts.for NS & then joined the Royals.
    The most outstanding, our Rep on the Blues & Royals Association Committee Fred Collingwood.

    Regards to All. Doug.

  22. Thank you Denis for a good bit of thought.

  23. Sorry Dennis, I have to dissagree with you there. The Eagle site was set up primarily for the benefit of ex-royals, the RHG/D don't forget were once Royal Dragoons and still are at heart. As for the other Regiments, they once had an affiliation or attachment to the Royals during their service. To exclude them simply because they did not leave on amalgamation is neither here nor there, to all intents and purposes they are 'Royal Dragoons'. Denis, please stop holding this grudge.
    Those of you who wish to merge then please e-mail me and I will gladly admit you to the Eagle 105 club. Alot of you are already members, so dig out your user details and log in.
    All are welcome.

  24. Doug, I have opened your latest application and e-mailed you to that effect but with no response. What is your current e-mail address?
    For those that would like to register with the Eagle 105 club the URL is:
    http://eagle105club.proboards.com/index.cgi
    If the url does not appear here then it means that it has been removed by someone other than me.

  26. It seems that my post ,stateing Eagle 105 website was not entirely correct ,my apologies for that, what should I have said was" go to google, type in eagle 105 club message board, and click on from there, I keep it on as a shortcut icon on desktop, one click and you are there every time.As for other comments, if I was a National Service man in the Reme--Signals-Cook etc serving in the Royals for the 2 years ,i would be saddened by these comments

  27. If I understand correctly (and I hope I don't), having served with the Regiment before and after amalgamation somehow disbars me . Apparently I have gatecrashed both this site and the last reunion!

  28. Gentlemen, these messages seem to be getting out of hand, I am of the opinion that some of you have some sort of grudge with regards to one anothers sites, may I please ask you to put your disagrements to one another through a private message or Email and not use this as your platform, if it proceeds I will have no alternative but to Delete this post, I do know that many of you including me are on the other sites and I do not have any problem with it as it is your choice and I respect that, as I have said in my post the other day if our members wish that we all move over to the Eagle 105 then I will have no alterative but to withdraw from arranging the Reunion as it could not be a reunion of exRoyals as the Blues and Royals would have to be included and I do know that is what Derek Leese did not want it to be, although Derek is no longer with us but it was what I promised him I would do and I will not go back on that promise so if it is going to be the case that you all wish to move to one of the other sites then as I have said that is to be YOUR CHOICE so be it.

  29. I am posting a e-mail I received from Dennis which should explain to everyone.

    HI TERRY just to clear things If the person was in or att to the ROYALS before 1969 they were ROYALS if after that they wthiere BLUES/ROYALS a[ NEW RGT] And we wanted a ROYALS only site.I personally have no problems now with you or the 1 0 5 CLUB.

    This might seem ambiguos to some but the meaning is clear
    As far as I am aware I have not admitted to the 105 club any who enlisted after 1969 into the RHG/D, I personally vet those that apply.

  30. Having just tried at least 5 times to register on the 105 site (not successfully ) I might add, it looks like if the multiply site goes down I will probably go with it, shame but there we are.
