Does it serve the  purpose it was created for? Or is there some things we need to improve on?

Allow people to post with fake names when they post things wrong they then hide behind them. This is a weakness of the forum

What about people with real names posting the wrong advice - seen plenty of that on here over the years.

To much bullsh## about earnings and what work people manage to do in a day.

doesn't that depend on whether you want to be a business man or a window cleaner? 

if you want to be a window cleaner you are interested in the equipment and the skills.

if you are a business man and want to make money you are interested in how much money you can make a day/a month/a year.

if you go to the bank and ask for a loan do they ask you about how your system works, or do they ask you about investment, growth and profits?

i would say there is plenty of info on the technicalities of window cleaning, and very little on running a cleaning business.  that to me is its biggest weakness unfortunately.

I think this forum is great. Without ciu id have most probably jacked it in by now, the success stories of others and top end advice makes it 2nd to none for inspiration to get out there and grow a decent business. Also Get some great debates on here to...
No real negatives from me apart from it runs slow at times which is anoying.

I'm Ian wicks, oh no, I mean Spartacus. Well alright, it's Steve. ;D

Good bits are the wealth of info, bad bits are some of the clowns. If anyone is offended by that, yes, I mean you!  :P :P :P

I don't like the distrust from many members and their apparent urge to quickly discredit you.  That though is a problem with the people, not the forum.  :-\

Many times though when you do a search, it takes an eternity for the results to appear and other times when you click a link the website 'hangs' for a while. That's very frustrating and is something I think the webmasters can and should sort.  >:(

Window cleaning was just an idea 7 months ago but i would say due to this forum and simply talking to WC gave me the confidence to go out there and get the work. im still very early days but i know with out a doubt this will be my full time job, i find all the negative response is from friends and public (why do you want to become a window cleaner,they dont earn a lot, you know you have to work in all weathers blah blah) but you speak to people on here and window cleaners out on the street a huge percent never look back and enjoy there work and positve. Top forum
