Yes I am finding it hard to navigate too and some parts are very slow to load.

Yes, the navigation of iCan is very poor.

Why does the iCan registration process always require you to display your full name to other users? This would be fine in the vast majority of cases, but not all.

Why not make this information optional, and what would happen if I gave a pseudonym for this purpose?

The answer to foxhunting in Gwynedd is clear. Let them be given the freedom of the urban areas as have sheep in Blaenau Ffestiniog, then they can survive on the contents of dustbins and not on the stock of hard working farmers.

As a regular traveller between Wrexham and Dolgellau, there are few safe overtaking stretches of road. One such stretch was the long straight out of Llanuwchllyn towards Dolgellau. That stretch of road now has a 40 mph speed restriction over half it's length, which, in my opinion will encourage motorists to attempt a risky overtaking manouvre in the shorter distance available .Who took this decision?

I am using this comment as part of an iCan learning curve.
I had a little difficulty registering. An iCan life identity crisis. .

I'm finding navigating about iCan rather confusing. Can you provide a test area where we can try posting to noticeboards and creating campaigns, just to see how the system works?
