If we have 498 members how come they hardly come on here now?

[The Baron]

If?

[Red Laser]

I like the way you are just stuck on the word if and not taking notice of the whole sentence.

[The Baron]

I don't like the way you are implying that I'm making this up.

But if I really need to...

The forum has been active for over seven years, in that time many people have been and gone, some stay for a few months, some pop in over the years, some become permanent residents, some join up only to receive the promotional notifications, some like to browse the boards but don't want to join in the conversations, everybody is different.

Unless you're honestly asking me what our 499 members do when they're not logged in to BFTB?

[Red Laser]

I know they aren't made up. I'm just wondering how come so many never seem to be on here now. And also what can we do to get them to come back more often.

[Sundance]

what do you thinnk we can do? glue them to their keyboards and FORCE them to read BFTB?!

[Red Laser]

And your problem is?

[paul463]

Maybe the missing members look at you two continually jousting and can't be arsed! How about that for a theory?

[Sundance]

maybe some, but i doubt all of them.

there's prolly people who've never logged in as long as i've been a member.

1st up, i wanna say i love this site so any criticism isnt meant to sound harsh but it just doesnt have the pulling power some of the U.S. based joe sites do. my original concept for the custom contest on here was for it to be more organised & hopefully pull more customisers, but it didnt really turn out that way.
