Whilst there was a lot of nonsense and pettiness on the site, there was also a lot of useful knowledge for those new to the hobby to stumble upon. For me, there’s also the aspect of the amount of time I put into the 15,000+ posts I made over the time I was there - although most of that was taken off me by my ex employer - so that’s one positive for me

It was quite tortuous waiting for it to go in the end, sad it's gone but we all move on. Not sure I'm going to frequent fora quite as much in the future, not that I posted that much anyway, but I did read posts daily.
Just wondering if anyone would go back to WHF forum if it was resurrected by Future in the, errr, future? Although that seems somewhat unlikely given their track record, I wonder if Practical Caravan or Practical Motorhome forum users know what's coming yet?!

To be honest I had a lot of bad memories on there with being ill and in some ways pleased that it’s gone. I would like to think I wouldn’t go back but probably would!

I think there were a few people that really needed to back off on there. Quite unnecessary.

Indeed, the perceived anonymity of the internet often brings out the worst in people, I bet most people are perfectly civil face to face, but behind their keyboards... We all know how things can get, it's often best to ignore it but it's so easy to get drawn in.
