Gee, thanks for the warning :p. I thought I was going crazy, lol. :eek:

I've heard deleting large/old threads helps too.

I could make it so guests can't see the forums, but I don't want to do that if it can be avoided.

That might help. They might leave the site, and those who actually want to be a part will join the site.

As I am reading this thread, I can see down at the bottom that there are 4 members and 6 guests. It is kinda creepy knowing people are out there that we don't know who they are, lol. I see Yosei, Fly, Loki, and me, but who are the other 6? And it is like they are reading all of our secrets, lol.

*panics* Stop starring at us!

I would gladly subscribe to a "pay for premium" type site, one like Spirit said, get extra PM capacity and such (yeah, I had to delete some PMs recently and I don't like to have to do that :(.

Oh, and I'd pay extra to get the ability to make my own name like Premium Users get cuz I'll prolly never reach 1000.

The lurkers are the future forum members! I used to be a lurker, but one day I decided to shed my disguise as guest and make known my identity!

As far as a future cost for the site... I cannot say that I'd be into that... who knows, though? But I definitely think it would be good to get more capacity in hopes that a lot of the lurkers become members.

On the topic of money... perhaps you could keep it free for people who contribute to guides and such... or assist with anything that could be helped with the site?

Oh my suggestion was not for it to be "everyone has to make a donation". Just simply have that option out there and depending on how much you chose to donate you could get premium user bonuses. Such as being able to hold more PMs or being able to make use of more smiley icons, or something like that. THe last forum site that I was on took donation for stuff like that. If you couldn't make a donation, that was fine, you could still be a member and still post. It was just that the ones that could make donations, wanted to because it gave them more options inside the forum.

I saw this on Toontowncentral.com, it was not very expensive, so a lot of peopel were willing to pay a small amount of money for more PM space and other stuff.
Just a suggestion. And YES, thank you for bringing it back up!!!!!!

I use(d) TTC too! :D


Eh, donating might work.
