As many hits as this board gets, I don't think that going 'members only' will hurt it. In fact, I bet that enraged clan members (from other clans) will start spending more time hear voicing their displeasure than anything else. All they want to do is see into the private boards. Why else would people join the Q2 mapping clan, but not want to really be affliated with it? ;D If you refresh the page this board gets a hit. I see nothing to brag about there. The point I was trying to make is that someone new to the community stopping by will be automatically turned off by the bevy of "members only" sections of the forum. Have your private forum for ClanQ2M and yourselves...that isn't what people are coming here to take a gander at every once in a while if ever. BTW, I'm not a member of the "mapping" clan. but a perusal of what some of you guys are doing piques my interest from time to time. Should that really be private? |

I was not asking you to stay. In fact, I think this place would be better off without the likes of you. I was however, extending an olive branch out to you. I guess I should have realized that you are only too immature to realize it.
bye bye..
flame war?
nah...I think I am a little too old to participate with you in that. (surprised I let it go this far.) I suppose that free time is more precious than that. (As a businessman, you should know that, right?)
bye Bassman, don't let the login screen hit you on your way out.

Somethings yes, Panzer. I was not the one that made the board 'members only', LeRay did. I do have the power to lift it though. I may do that in a limited fashion in the future, but not right now.
I sometimes look at Backshooters and read the stuff there. There are several private places, but I don't worry about what is in there or not.
I think that most of the private stuff is a turnoff to non-members, however there might be times when you want to share info with only your trusted friends.
I am a renaissance fighter. I make armour and fight (both weapons and empty hands) on a regular basis. We have a public forum just like this place. We have private places, because some things only concern our group. (dues, monthly meetings...etc.) Non members do not even care if we meet or not.
Anyway, I know what you are saying. Let's see what happens. When things settle down, I woould like to open up things a bit. If there's flaming still going on, then I'll leave it as-is.

Hey Cypher, the private forums you speak of over at Backshooters are clan specific. Everything else is open for all to see. I just don't see how you can miss the logic of someone new to the place stopping by and hitting the link only to see a "Members Only" message pop up. It will turn more people off to the idea of visiting, but hey...no one said it had to be THAT friendly of a community right? Anyway, I've said enough and really all that can be said of the situation. At least I already have an account.  |
