Just a note for anyone new to this software, you will find a series of illustrated tips under Forum Help in Message Board Rules and Help. If there is anything else you would like to know, please drop me a pm and I'll be happy to try and help.

Hi, another recruit from WAK.
To be honest, i was/am sceptical about whether the fans of 2 neighbouring counties could exist on one forum, it certainly isn't ideal, and i came to check the site out without any real intention of joining.
but the natives appear friendly, and the above comments are very inclusive/encouraging, so why not!

I'm sad to see We Are Kent close , especially as I wrote the template for its structure for the site's excellent moderator, Bob Patterson, and invented its name (on edit - and yes, I've seen your sneering on WAK 'moskyokel' and it's 100 per cent true : not that it matters a jot, but Bob will confirm that I came up with the WAK name and wrote the list of thread topics and category headings that persist almost exactly as I conceived them to this day ..an experience, by the way, which was invaluable when we set up this site after the old Sussex board closed down.) I hope even 'musky' will join us because it's a delight to see so many old Kent comrades on here. We have long been privileged to count longhops and invicta1977 among our regular contributors and it's terrific to see A.S. and others now joining us. The camraderie between us all at Tunbridge Wells was one of the highlights of last season, when hhs, s&f, longhops,A.S. ,invicta1977 and myself shared many a laugh - and glass - across the county divide. I'm sure that same camaraderie will continue on here. Lets' see how it goes; but if it works out should the site be renamed 'The Unofficial Sussex Forum incorporating We Are Kent' - or is at an opportuniy for an entierly new name jettisoning the clumsy 'unofficial' tag which is totally gratuitous as it is patently obvious to everyone that it is not an official SCCC site? Based on the happy comradeship we all enjoyed at T Wells last season, I don't foresee any partisan rivalry between the supporters of the two counties being a problem at all - although there will be some splendidly enjoyable gentle ribbing, I'm sure. As the season approaches there's going to be plenty on the Kent horizon to talk about, including a new head coach and, it is strongly rumoured, a new chairman. And the debate on the city-based tournament will certainly hot up because many of us on here are highly supportive of the ECB's plans, while from my occasional visits to We Are Kent, the majority of their most vocal contributors seem to regard the ECB as an evil pact between Stalin and Mao and the new T20 tournament as an abominable crime against humanity... Let the debate begin!!! So after a month or so on this MB. I hope you Kent Supporters are still feeling welcomed.
