What if we had a contest to see who could get 100 people to join the forms? Each person would have to have a different IP address to count. If you went and made a bunch of new users on one account, then you would be disqualified from the contest.

i reckon i could do that in an hour no problems. but it would be people registering for the sake of registering, youd get maybe 1 or 2 posts from them, and it would be pointless for the forum

i think it would b a good idea..... but maybe it could b an always ongoing competition, like the gamer score leaders thing.

what is the point in having 10k members if only 200 odd post regularly tho?

no point in that, but we cant get members who post if we dont get members at all.

members are far more likely to post if they find the site themselves, than if they are forced onto here. if we want members we just post a thread in the wanted scetion on mysace. guarenteed a few thousand memebrs

its no good whoring a post to say your gonna stop whoring. its too late, and by posting that and not shutting up you proved you haven changed. something needs to be done cos its really annoying

i dont even have a paypal account, nor do i think i can get one since im only 15, my parents hate ordering stuff so they dont have one, so im pretty much screwed on the whole donating thing, i would love to, just kinda impossible to.

if he comes back i hope he learns his lesson, if not then he will be ip banned and never be able to comeback, i wish it would show banned under where it says like member like some forums do

I have a paypal account i make my family buy online....i use it alot or well sue to i ahvnt ebayed in awile, im going to try and donate 10 or 20 bucks next month(gotta keep it small sicne im saving for TV and desktop and Ipod)

He can switch the IP address, well if he knwos how and will eb able to coem back....i have done it before with other places...

There should eba thing so it says Banned, you could always change hsi motto thingie to say "banned 3 days" or something

Minty
