94extreme Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 I can't add a location to people's info with what I have on hand. It'd have to be added to the CSS or HTML page manually and I can't do that without Jim's full hosting access. well, darn.. maybe we all ought to put that in our sigs then. hmmm?

RedPath88 Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 I got a suggestion. How about when a newbie signs up they are not allowed to post for atleast 7 days. They can read all the threads and get a feel for the forum, but thats all. It would cut way back on alot of the redundant questions and definetly cut back on people advertising items for sale and then never coming back to the site. What do yall think? Problem with that (as I see it) is it might also scare people away from joining.. "you mean I am free to join, but I if I do I can't post for a week?" I read before I joined and I like to think that *most* people read forum posts prior to joining. Granted some don't but I bet that most do. That way they know if it's even worth their time joining in the first place... since it seems that people join most often when they either need help/advice or are otherwise looking for something. Who knows, maybe I am way off here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pezzy Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 Yeah, I'm not sure how welcomeing it is to put them on a 7 day probation... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treywurst Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 Yall make good points. I have to admit, being fairly new myself, if I had a 7 day trial I may not have stuck around. I think I have turned out to be a decent member as have alot of others. Maybe put some kinda restriction on the for sale forum. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88pathoffroad Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 Nope, no 7 day waiting period for NPORA. Next! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vengeful Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 I was trying to post pictures earlier, from a site that I've posted pics from before, and now it says something like the dynamic site in your link is unable to be processed or something like that.

Precise1 Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 Lol k9sar, yep, all spelled correctly. I'd get some interesting things like that when I had Dragon Speak Pro set up on my computer. Most of the time it was ok, but heaven forbid you had a couple of beers and weren't anunciating properly !! Personally, I use this crazy thing called a dictionary; sometimes you even lurn something !! We all flub occasionally or fat finger type, but sometimes someone posts something I can hardly translate... B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wheelmanLS1 Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 I had a suggestion. When you start a new topic, and you have the option to add an icon that will be viewable alongside the thread title... you have the smileys, the question mark, the exclamation point, etc.? Can we put a camera emoticon to show that the thread contains pictures. Like if someone is starting a thread specifically for posting their pictures, they could use that icon? Sorry for the jumble.

Precise1 Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 I assume thats possible, but what about putting something like "Pictures from last weekend" or something in the title or comment ? Seems to work so far... B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wheelmanLS1 Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 Yeah, I guess that would work. I just thought an icon would stand out more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
