Thanks for paying attention to this announcements feature.
We are currently in discussion amongst ourselves about the best way forward with this website. To date we have not asked for any money from anyone for using this site, and in an ideal world we would like to continue do so.
The world however operates on money, and as the site grows with more and more visitors, so do the costs of keeping the site running. We have implemented a Google Ads program to see if that generates the kind of money needed to at least cover costs. Feel free to support us by clicking on some ads that you are interested in.

Part of our philosophy is to make this a community based website, and as such we would like to ask you, the community what you think. We have started a poll and would very much like to hear what you think.

F.A.QIf this is your first visit to the Ucommunicate Forum, please take a few minutes to read through some of these frequently asked questions. It will help guide you through our forum and ultimately save you time getting the answers you need. Please remember that a community is only ever as strong as it's members, so give back to the community whenever you can by posting your thoughts and experiences. This selfless act may be the defining point in somebody else's day!
