We've seen an improvement lately, and by this I mean more members are visiting us daily then they used to.

Regarding moderators, their job is to moderate and manage to forum so that it will remain clean and easy to use. We also like to help other members with their problems, why not? You don't have to be a moderator to help others, just my opinion.
However I'm not saying your point is wrong, infact I agree with you, another moderator won't harm, since he/she really want to do his/her job right.

We've been moving some forums and sub-forums lately, this should help us manage the forum easily and make it easier for new members to post their problems in the right forum. Should you have any other suggestions and feedback we will be more than happy to hear from you

zgmf_x10a_ms you seem to be an active member here, I mean, you visit us frequently. I'm going to take this opportunity and take you for this as a mod here

May I give you a suggestion? :P Will you please reduce the amount of dots (.) in your posts? :P ... just joking.

i mean.....mods help out other ppl.......and i mean.......i often visit here cuz i got a lot of probs and the number of people replyin to my message is juz isnt........how do i say this......enough........the more ppl we'll get more situations solved.......as there might be some ppl in the huge group members have gone through the problems already........they might be helpful to help.....doesnt that make it faster...with more replies and makes the forum more exciting? ppl keep comin to ask then go away........becuz its not so exciting here

Yup, you got a great point. But it's not so easy to find a good mod eighter.

zgmf_x10a_ms · Sep-13-2005

well im not suggestin to find a mod quickly or immediately but to get more members.........then after a while see hu has talent and is an active or has this thing that thing to b a mod.........gettin more mems also help to find mods easier......am i not rite?

Daniel · Sep-13-2005

Yes, I agree 100% with you. However, do you have any suggestions of how to increase our active members rate?

zgmf_x10a_ms · Sep-14-2005

hmm......im a kid i cant invite much ppl............hmmm but y do other forums have so much ppl? ill try to invite.........but w8 is it me or is it that ppl dun like computer geeks? is that the reason y this is it?

I'm not sure about this. That's why we want feedback from our active members :P

The problem, as I see it, is that many people join forums like this when, and only when, they have a problem. We then try to fix it for them, they disappear until the next problem. Unfortunately thats the way it is with support forums.
Of course we wish people would come back and contribute, ask, read or whatever, but they dont.
Maybe a live link so we could chat maybe would help, but I'm not sure.

how bout makin it this way?.............new members must have limit no. of posts that they post for contributin (like 30 posts goin around replyin others mems probs) only after that they can start a new topic...............

Daniel · Sep-17-2005

Personally I don't like the idea. The reason is, that they won't even register if we do it that way. And we want members to be free, and post whatever they want. All we want is something interesting, not the usual stuff, that hopefully would keep the members coming back to the forum. But it's difficult to think of something like that

Do you have any ideas? Or maybe a subforum that you wish we had or something... ?

I agree on what Alan said, but I still think 80% of the time the chat room would be empty

However it's not a bad idea
