  1. And there we have it, the Top Three have been announced. Click through for our news story where we recap on the Top 20 before revealing the final result. Find out who was voted Home and Away's Most Popular Character in our 2024 vote... Big thanks once again to @Red Ranger 1 for his commentary, and to those that voted in our eleventh Most Popular Home and Away Character poll.
  2. It's that time again! Today we launch our eleventh biennial poll to find the most popular Home and Away characters, voted for by Back to the Bay readers and members of the BTTB forum. This year, all you need to do is choose your Top 5 characters from the show's history, and vote for them by following this link. Unlike in previous years, you can't vote on the forum itself, but you can still post any questions and discuss the vote in this thread. We will allocate 5 points to your favourite character, 4 points to your second favourite and so on. We’ll then add all the votes up and announce the results at a later date, with @Red Ranger 1 once again providing commentary along the way. Please be sure to read these few pointers before we get started: Strictly one vote per person, and you need to enter your email address to be able to vote. If you enter more than once, your most recent entry will be the one we count. We'll only use your email address to make sure your vote is only counted once. If you want to subscribe to our weekly newsletter full of Aussie soap spoilers, just tick the box and we'll add you to the list. Otherwise, you won't hear anything more from us. You need to choose 5 characters, so think hard. Both regular and guest characters are allowed. Please give a character's surname, as if you simply write down ‘Ben’ then we won’t know if you mean Ben Lucini, Ben Astoni or Ben Murray. If you need a refresher, check out our Characters section. Any characters who have debuted in Episode 8336 or onwards (airing in Aus on Monday 26th August 2024, and in the UK on Monday 14th October) are not eligible, due to the fact that these episodes have not aired in the UK as of the start of the voting. Please only vote for who you genuinely believe are the best characters from the show’s history – not just the ones you think are the best looking, or your current favourite! Voting will run until Friday 15th November 2024. Get voting here!
  3. I've just significantly upped the storage space for PMs, so hopefully you won't need to throw anything out going forward.
  4. So I'll hold my hands up – Karen Dean should be in there ? I'd mistakenly assigned her points to Karen Thompson when I was cleaning up the results, confusing myself after a couple of people voted for "Karen Dean's mum". She actually received two votes, both as the voters' fourth choice. She scored four points, landing her in joint 139th place. Karen Thompson only got 11 points, meaning she moves from position 92 to position 109. I've added Karen Dean to the results column, and she'll be added to the actual results pages once I've double checked that everything is correct – obviously it's affected the numbering of some of the other results as well. Oops!

  6. It's official The date hasn't been confirmed, but Channel 5 are set to scrap Home and Away's 6pm airing later this autumn, with Neighbours moving into the old slot. https://www.backtothebay.net/news/2021/09/24/channel-5-axes-home-and-aways-6pm-airing-as-neighbours-takes-its-place/ The afternoon showings and 5STAR 'first look' will continue as they are.
  7. There doesn't seem to be any issue with the forum itself, as far as I can tell. What happens when it "tries to attack your phone" exactly? It's potentially a rogue advert loading a popup, which shouldn't be happening - but if you can let me know any more details, I can look into it further. That's an odd one - I'll report this to the company that makes the forum software and see if they have a solution. Yeah, I get the resource limit error a little too frequently as well - I'll see what I can do about this. Yep, that was disabled for some reason ... you should now be able to go in and turn the option off
  8. Apologies for that, hopefully the issue is now resolved. Just to reiterate Dan, apologies also for how long it took for us to realise there was an issue! I upgraded the forum software this afternoon, which resulted in a bug with posting - but as Dan said, it didn't affect the Admin accounts, so we were unaware anything had gone wrong! Happy posting!
  9. Hmm, I've had that happen to me once as well, but put it down to a mistake with the company that displays our ads, as we're definitely not meant to have full page adverts. Thanks for bringing it to our attention, I'll look into it and try to make sure it doesn't happen again.
  10. Sorry for the delay, both PMs and notifications should now be working correctly! Let us know if you're still having issues.
  11. 12 years! It's hard to believe Back to the Bay has been a part of my life for so long - I first started the site when I was 14, so it's unbelievable that a small fan site started by a young teenager is still around and thriving over a decade later. As Dan mentioned, the past year has been one of our busiest years in a while, with a brand new look across most of the site, and plenty of brand new content by our amazing team of contributors. It's already been said, but thanks again to Dan, Matt, Dean, Jen, John, Barbara, Matt, RR and QA for everything they've put into the site and forum over the past 12 months. And, of course, to everyone who's come before them - whether they've left us because of other life commitments, or whether it's been through more tragic circumstances, we wouldn't be where we are today without the hard work of Jeremai, Kat, Frankie and everyone else who has helped out over the years. 2016 should be even more exciting as we continue to grow, bring you new features, new content, new spoilers, and continue to have great discussions here on the forum. Thanks to everyone for visiting and hopefully we'll be here in one form or another in another 12 years!
  12. It's a 'band aid' fix rather than addressing what was causing it in the first place, but I've hopefully fixed the issue. You should now be able to edit your profiles Let me know if it still doesn't work! Also, Zetti, you should be able to post your fan fiction without a problem now!
  13. I don't add website links to my profile. It's that I try to add in something for my About Me page and tried to save the changes but I keep getting the error message. Is this still happening? I just tried editing your profile and can add basic text into it seemingly without a problem. If you can let me know exactly what you're trying to insert, I can try and figure out what's causing the error to occur
  14. All the time as in once a week, or more than once a week? Unfortunately the new software is designed so that you have to re-enter the password 7 days after you last entered it, which I'm hoping they will change in the future, but it shouldn't be happening more frequently than that.
  15. Hmm, is this still happening? It seems okay for me but can look into it if you're still having the issue.
