[RESOLVED] Non-Members of the Forums
Scotty
I think it may be more beneficial to go back to the old way of running the forum with every poster having to be a member before they can post. I have seen a vast increase of general flamers come to the site now throwing out insults to everybody (Re. The tech who never got paid thread).
I could edit the posts for the forums which I moderate as could yourself & Shawn, but as you know it can take forever to get around all of the flame or idiotic posts to edit them. At least with the Membership thing, you could possibly keep some of the 'A**-Holes' away and get the forum back to how it used to be.
It seems to have started since S******911 bought the site.
Buy it back Scotty PLEAASE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes Scott
I think it may stop a lot of the recent flaming that has been going on.

And yes again! Or if you don't want to make the whole board for members only, then at least the "For Techs Only" section should be for members only, maybe even for senior members only.

I agree with you Darren. The flames don't help, since we're supposed to be helping each other, right? Since dicovering this forum, it's helped me immensely - especially the techs only section. So members only sounds good. BTW, Darren or Scott, what does it take to become a senior member?

Tech-To-Tech and Tech Tales are now registered users only!! I can also track IP addresses across the whole forum and post them to every post reply or topic, let me know?? That way I can ban someone based on their IP.

My 2 cents worth, I agree you should register before you post.
Computers follow your orders, not your intentions.
