Just wondering what everyones thoughts are on this?
The Tavern has, probably, less than 20 regular posters, yet i often notice over 50 guests browsing the threads.
I enjoy the discussions in this forum and it has a bit of a family (somewhat dysfunctional ) feel about it. You sometimes forget that anyone can read our posts. _________________ Don't count the days, make the days count. |

Errr..... no. Definitely not. It could do with rather more genuine diversity, and people usually prefer to read what they are getting into, before they join in. _________________ Two more flags before I die! |

True, although we used to have a lot of diversity before the gangland wars scared them off! Underbelly 48! _________________ You cant fix stupid, turns out you cant quarantine it either! |

Members of Nicks could join, have a look and decide from there whether they participate or not? _________________ Don't count the days, make the days count. |

I'd be surprised if the people browsing were not Nicks members, but it's one reason I don't disclose too much personal information on here, at least outside the PM system ! _________________ Two more flags before I die! |

The "I was young and I got over it" defence is widely used and accepted in Conservative circles. It's almost as popular as "I know that I have let down my wife, my family and myself by this moment of weakness..." _________________ Two more flags before I die! |

I think the visitors are doing it for Stuis recipes. He is channeled by Louie. Closed forums are a sign you having something to hide. You can ban the ones you don't want. _________________ Annoying opposition supporters since 1967. |

Isn't that what the Bored Board's for??
And look how well visited that forum is
Of course it shouldn't. I'm always a 'guest' until there's something to say. |
