    Perhaps the owner of the other board wants to start another board. Two boards might make twice as much money as one.

    Do all the posts on a board belong to the board owner? I saw on the other board that all the pictures in personal albums can never be deleted. Does that mean they become the property of the board owner? I had thought about making an album of some of my pictures but after I read that they can never be deleted, I thought better of it.

    Be careful, everyone... You know, sometimes just opening a fake website, can give you lots of headache. They can be viruses, Trojan horses, adwares, bots, bugwares, spywares and so on. Do not push your luck.:eek:

    I'm always on an iPad and I guess it's possible but I never have had any problems with viruses.

    I think it's from The UK. In the first screenshot, the topic Holidays is described the British way. Americans would call these vacations.

    Strange. Could this be someone who is mad at the other forum?
