First Frobs had to go for nicking money. And now Kay has had her "official forum" status removed.
When wil the Acorahs learn that you cant trust an Acorah fan to run their forum! lol

So that must mean DA doesn't "approve" of the DA Forum any more? Usually "official" in the title of any fan club or related item means it is endorsed or approved by the celebrity in question. Interesting....

Basically Derek removed his support of that forum due to the actions of certain admin on there.
Someone tried to hack another site/forum, and got caught, i also hear that people were not happy with Kay and the way she was running things.
The quote i heard was "Its just like frobs all over again"

I beg to differ here. Spiritwithme is excellent at her job as are the other admins. Those running the current forum have nothing to do with Frobs. I would trust Kay and her team with my life.

The point is that this tittle tattle is only gonna exist when fans run the forum. I am sure Kay ran the forum to the best of her ability, but the fact remains a lot of people were not happy with her. Why doesn't one of her mods explain what happened, instead of people relying on me for the answers. Do i need to remind you of EYEBROWGATE? It is not Gwen who is damaging her husbands career, it is the noobs running the former official forum, people who gossip, rumour monger, send emails back and forth, telling tales etc. These people are to blame. If anything Gwen is trying to protect her Husband from these sicophantic and at time insane fans. I also hear that Derek himself may have said "I wish that Jon Donnis was running my forum" Although I can not confirm nor deny that above statement at this time

I also hear that Derek himself may have said "I wish that Jon Donnis was running my forum" Although I can not confirm nor deny that above statement at this time I believe that I have an objective perspective: I am not involved in the inside of the forum. I am just little ol' me sitting somewhere at her computer in the United States. I think that it is the best fan site I have ever seen. I have seen others. Jon, I hate to say this, but if you were running Derek's fan site, there would be no members. If Derek Acorah can't see that, then he is blind. You know it and I know it. Kay's team is extremely creative. They have developed a place for fan's to communicate and in which to become friends. The Acorah's don't have a problem with that, do they? The site allowed for about 10 Americans to travel to England to see Derek live. That could not have happened without the forum website. I don't know what all the backstabbing or tales are about. All I know is that the forum has allowed for communication between people in a way that I have never seen it before. This is due, mostly, to Kay's efforts. I think the Acorah's really need to look at the big picture here and not quibble over the little things.

I am saying that the communication between members brought us together enough that we were able to plan a meeting. We planned the meeting around one of DA's shows. Do the Acorah's not care that the site has brought people together? Why can't we hear from the two of them anyway?

Do the Acorah's not care that the site has brought people together? Why can't we hear from the two of them anyway? I like Derek so im not going to bash him in any way. Im answering this as a "member of a site" . OK I run my own website and we often "get together" we have met up and had a great time. The point im making here is, that no matter what the site is, at some point on a site people do get together and meet up. Now this has nothing too do with the admin on the site, but more of the members of the site.. So it wasnt the fact that is was Dereks site that this happened on, this happens on all sites. Is the site still up and runing? If so I would carry on posting and enjoy the site for what it is, a place for fans of Derek to get together and post on the message boards and enjoy posting about Derek. For this too happen the site dont have to be an offical site. If Derek wants an offical site, he should employ someone that is not a "derek fan" so too speak. Perhaps jsut leave it at a Site and leave the fans to run their "unofficial" message boards.

yes the site is still up & running but now we have more freedom we can introduce loads more stuff See theres a plus already, plus you have a lot more freedom of speach as well Not at all..... it could have 500,000 members and still be run really bad, its the Derek Accorah that gets people to join and NOT who runs the site.... I could take over that forum today and people would join and numbers would double, that wouldnt be down too me, that would be down to the fact its a Derek " fan site" See why is there ever a need to Blame anyone.. As far as I can remember there has only been 2 "official " derek sites, the one that we are talkign about now... The reasons its no longer "official" dont interest me it has nothing too do with me.. and the one that Frobs ran.. which without going into detail, you cant say you blame derek for that surely?

That sadly is part of being Admin on a forum hun.
You will never change that, im sure I get called worse than s*ite for being on here, but sadly that is part of "being an admin"
and that sadly is part of forum life hun....
Thats why its best to keep things unofficial in my opinion, you have a lot more freedom, no rules to go by, you dont have to watch your step, and your not tied to anyone..........
