Guest 1 question?

Why you ppls dont wanna to reg on our forum??? i always see 3-4 guests and no1 dont wanna reg... so??

PS u must reg on forum to see all forums and categories... right now u can see only off topic category

Good question Bt why you ask it, cos if they can't see this topic, they can't see ur post ... -.- I'm online everyday

i made that like guests can see and write here....

Ultimatus, some of those guests your seeing are actually auto bots responding to key words, like... " free " etc.
And actually, i dont see the point of hiding forums and categories, all that does is make the forum board look like some of the topics arnt very active.
The only ones I would hide are the likes of.. photo's, are these are more like for members only.
But the rest of the forums look better out in the open, and if ppl are pinching the topics and stuff from here to put on their own places, then your doing summit right, cause other ppl are only copying you, and also, you'l still get the hits from the visitors to up your rank on google etc.
Thats just my own personal opinion.

hmmm when bots are on forum it says Bots: Google, Yahoo etc...

im ultimatus i just want to try dose this works... xD

make gfx graphic cannnot be see from Guest is a good way of making those guest register xD

Nah, i dont think it works that way, if i cant see what the members are posting about, then i dont join that forum.

it better than people join for nothing xD

ye i did that before...

Well, to be honest, I don't think hiding the forums is doing you much good, look at them, there's no activity, Ive posted loads of resources, got a few views from the members here, but no one is even bothering to leave a comment, kinda weird huh!!?
But its your forum, so its up to you guys what way you want to show it, i'l wait an see how things go before i post any of my grafix..

Mike, some people are too lazy to post but I ain't, I would like to post but since my Internet Connection is very slow, it takes like 5 mins just so that I can post in one topic :/ I really hate that.. >.> Yea, so, about the inactivity problem, maybe we need something else in this forum to make it more active? Or maybe, we need some more new members? Hmm.. I'm going to make a Suggestions Forum Category so that people can tell us their views.. And finally, invite more people pls

Sounds cool mate, and i thought people who stay in big cities would have a real good speedy connection, cause even way up here in scotland, my internet connection is pretty good.
But anyway, its no probs mate, i was just pointing out that sometimes, hiding forums isnt very good for attracting new members, but its cool though, no worries.

Lolz, yea I do live in a big city however I don't have a pass for my internet connection so it's insecure and everyone uses it >.> I'm scared if I put a pass, it'll ruin/somehow break/lose the connection xP Yea, I should stop, this is getting Off-Topic. I'll reveal some forums for Guests but not all.

There's like 4 forums open for guests, and they are all old posts in them, thats making this place look like dead place.

Lolz, fine.. all forums opened for Guests =)

Hey!! hey!! look!! its an active forum..
If your members would rather have the graphics forum hidden... i promise i wont complain...
* whispers..... a lot.. *
