We have 1170 members currently - which is pretty small, but since the site is not even public yet, maybe not so bad and if you join it will be one more!

This is a spot for comments that are not to do with anything else on this site.
Note:
To start with we'll just have "General" for everything. If it looks like there is a need for some other topics, we'll add them as they get requested.
The whole idea is that there isn't really a forum on this site. There are lots of forums out there already! In any case, I didn't want multiple places for discussing the same topics. So there is no forum, just comments! Each bit of content on the site will have comments active, and all discussion on site should be with the content it is about.
However, for some, it might be nice to have all those comments in one place. Hence the Forum page comes into existence.
So what about general comments about other things. Well we have this special content type for that, comments added to here can have titles and can fill that gap for topics where no content exists already.
Using this method, the comments here can be included along with all the other comments from around the site.
As the need arises, other nodes of this content type can be added with other names "For sale", "Technique", "Bike Mechanics" etc.
Site news can be found here. The site doesn't have any news, so there isn't anything here except this. This doesn't really exist, in a way. It's not news.

This is a bit like a forum

Is it really?
A reply to a comments looks a bit like this. No, a lot like this!
So how do these work?
All my thought can go down here!
