Hamburger Pimp Posted April 11, 2006 Report Posted April 11, 2006 Oh! There's one more reason why you should join right now: There's not that many two digit "founder member" membership numbers left - 99's the limit! When we get to member number 26719, displaying your two digit cyber-bedlingtonian status will look r-a-t-h-e-r cool!Not my words, the sage counsel of Threegees, one of the ace webheads who keep this whole shebang running.The ninety-nine limit has been reached, we're all members of an exclusive club now. More exclusive than "Stringfellows" even. Yeah, think about that.I'm number 38 and I say this. If you've joined up and you haven't said anything, come and say hello on this thread. Also, tell us one fact about yourself."I'm Colonel Knowledge and I am a non-driving idiot who can't even drive a car"

Also, tell us one fact about yourself."I'm Colonel Knowledge and I am a non-driving idiot who can't even drive a car"Member number 100 was reached a while ago - and I never noticed. The number of members quoted on the index page is the number of confirmed and active members.All boards are plagued with people who subscribe then never contribute anything, or don't even bother to confirm their details. That's providing they managed to input a vaild e-mail address in the first place! So the number of members they display is most usually grossly inflated. That's not the case here.So the current software only gives them so long to confirm, and so long to contribute something, before they're trashed. When they get trashed the lose their PMs, their storage space, blogs and everything else, and the username is released for someone else. Use it or lose it - it's all automated! We've considered giving the top users free @bedlington.co.uk e-mail in addition to the free PMing as an acknowledgment of their continued support. Will get around to coding this sometime.
Denzel Posted April 12, 2006 Report Posted April 12, 2006 alright dennis. long time no see.hows the sunken lurve tub?It's quality. Fancy a ruck after the game this weekend? Bring your crew to the Top End, if you dare.
Sw@lnalla Posted April 12, 2006 Report Posted April 12, 2006 Use it or lose it ! My missus once told me that, I still have it though.

Will get around to coding this sometime.oh yeah? might be a good idea for the first 99 to get e-mail addresses...and this 'active' bit, is that just for the registration? or does it release my username if i get 3 years porridge?
threegee Posted April 25, 2006 Report Posted April 25, 2006 and this 'active' bit, is that just for the registration? or does it release my username if i get 3 years porridge?Active, means you have to log-in at intervals and post occasionally. If you don't log-in then you don't get to see if there are any PMs for you - so a bit pointless joining and not doing so fairly regularly.

MarkJ Posted April 25, 2006 Report Posted April 25, 2006 Have you worked out why more people don't contribute?probably coz this is bedlington based, and nowt ever happens here.....
threegee Posted April 25, 2006 Report Posted April 25, 2006 Have you worked out why more people don't contribute?Yes. Because most people are watchers on the sidelines and not doers.That's a fact that someone, now long gone, pointed out to me. At the time the sage observation was in connection with something completely different. But... as they say... that's another story!

Have you ever considered actual as opposed to the philosophy and methodology ?
