Planned changes to the Site
Over the coming weekend, the following changes will be made to TheBakerBoy: 1. The site will only be available to members. 2. The Gallery and part of the Forum (currently the 'Members Only' section) will only be available to site friends. Please note that members become site friends when they participate on the site. Just under the top menu you will see your user name and next to it 'Group:' followed by either "Friends" or 'Users'. If anybody who is currently a 'User' thinks they should be a 'Friend', then please send me a Private Message or email me at thebakerboy@hotmail.co.uk
Why is it changing?
I’ve come to realise that the pleasure I get from running this site is being able to share information with like-minded Simon fans - people who primarily admire Simon as an actor and a family man. And I want the site to be a safe community for those people. This doesn’t mean that to be a site friend you have to make lots of lengthy comments, but I do feel that people who participate even in a minor way, are embracing the idea of a community. I understand that not everybody wants that from a fansite, and so I may lose some members, but the number of members/visitors is less important to me, than knowing that the people who have full access are engaged with the site and welcome the principles of mutual respect and trust.
My thanks to friends who have helped and supported me in making this decison.
