What benefits would there be? New traffic? You don't actually believe people would read this board for the first time the way it has been for the last few months and stick around to contribute, do you?

What a negative bitchy thing to say.

How was that bitchy? It was a completely honest observation from someone who's been "message boarding" for 10+ years.

Bullshit ridiculous drama does NOT lure new posters in to sticking around and contributing. Period.

How's that non drama board phoenix forums doing?

So how is anyone here?Is it possible people who've never seen this place might chuckle and stick around?I'd say its at least a possibility.To sum up you havent a clue.

X is a great example of how drama not only turns off new members, but alienates established members who come to these places to be entertained, not wallowing in meaningless e-drama.

Ever noticed that there are a significant number of established posters missing from here right now? Actual quality, contributing members like Ms. Bammington? Ever wondered why? Probably not, hence not seeing my point here.


Could this be a good idea???? - JCW - 07-21-2010

If people still come here, it's because they don't mind e-drama (or dare I say, even enjoy it), or they come out of habit. My point isn't about people who are already here though, it's about people reading IT for the first time, deciding if they want to become a member here. I have several friends I think would be great here, but I'm too embarrassed by the ridiculousness of certain individuals here to invite them. I know that means nothing to you since I'm such a shitty poster, but I suspect there are others who feel the same.

Behind the scenes shit.How do we control people not sending pics of themselves and flirting in PM's again?

Ohh boo hoo bams not posting here a lot!Cry me a river.If she wants she can start a thread and talk about whatever she likes.No drama there if she wants.I'm guessing its more about who's not here like cucumber then anything and I'll refer you back to my behind the scenes comment which we have no control over.

Explain to me again how getting more eyes on this place like leemans suggestion seems to do would be a bad thing?

You want to turn this thing into something YOU would find enjoyable.I submit you havent contributed anything here ever and don't know what the fuck you are talking about.The fact you are or were a member at a lot of boards does not make you an expert.
