Would you not be better giving a short period of free membership so that people can have a look. I'm reluctant to give my details until I see what I'm getting into

Its completely free to join and very simple to delete the account if you dont like the site. The Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy are in the process of being created and once published will be emailed to all members to agree to or they will be removed by the site administrators.

WreckerL. With all respect, whilst we'd love to discuss all aspects of the site, we'd prefer to stick to the content and not how its formed.

With all respect, I'd still like to know how you'd know the numbers are genuine. Unless you have a mahoosive database with all service details of everyone who has served it seems to me anyone can join and get info on gatherings of ex-service personnel.

So two service members (husband & wife) decide to jump on tinternet bandwaggon and make a few quid out of organising reunions.
You will not get any advertising revenue until your site starts getting plenty of hits.
5 Posts on the site and none of them on any other toic than this one.

I reckon that like the dragons most if not all ex matelots will declare themselves out.

If you lot find anyone looking for CSA payments from me there'll be trouble.

As an example of the powerfulness of an ID number, a shipmate was lifted for being pi55ed at the US airbase in Catania (well if the sceptics want Jack to celebrate Independence day what do they expect?) and was asked for his ID card. They punched his number into their gizzmo and up came his detail. My messmate said that he sobered up v quickly when that happened.

So when pusser wanted my ID number during an anonymous survey for allowing gays into the Navy they got short thrift from me.

How many service reunions have the pair of you organised and who were they for?

**scouse** · 15-03-12, 07:58

I have organised a ships reunion, the navy news will give you a free advert, it is easy and quiet a rewarding thing to do.

Horses for courses chaps. You don't have to join the site. I find it interesting about entering service numbers though. That's put paid to any Bootie/Airborne/SAS/SBS reunions then. I know around 2 million people who served in one of the aforementioned, yet ask some of these steely eyed Para/SAS chaps their first four, they look at you blankly.

I might start a site called Walts Reunited.

Blackers
may I sugest that you combine your walts reunion site with the following:

Rohypnol users
Celler afficianados

best wishes for your new venture
