Of course people making multiple accounts is a problem and will probably always be a problem, but I don't see much of an issue with people joining and not posting much or socializing much. Truthfully, I'm a member on a LOT of forums, however, this one and another Beatles one I frequent are probably the only one's where I really post often. Most of those other forums I only use as resources and what-not. I don't really have anything to contribute with and don't really have any reason to talk anyone, but I'm still signed up on them and I definitely use them, despite the fact it seems like I'm not. Heck, even on tFS, I only have about 170 posts are so, but I'm mostly just on tFS to take their stuff.

Like Michael* in a previous post, I'm a little puzzled as to why someone would join a forum without contributing when the forum can be read by anyone. As a member of lots of forums perhaps you can answer that, Baby.Jude9? I looked at BZ lots of times before I joined. I only joined when I had stuff I wanted to contribute. Of course tFS is a special case here (and an unusual one, I think) as you can't even see the forum without becoming a member (and becoming a member requires more than just an email, username and password ).

They're 'men's forums' and as much as I hate to admit this , but I think there's some merit in a women dominated forum . The reason I say that is the things that annoy me to no end over there (countdowns to 15-17 year old celebrity birthdays, ten people on the same page quoting the same giant, slow "I Came" baby gifs ect.) women wouldn't tolerate and I kindof prefer it that way .

Yep, I'd agree with that.

There must be something about all this that I'm just not quite grasping. Quite honestly, if the issue with the star system is the absolute worst part of the BZ experience, then I think we’re doing pretty well.

Ok im confused here, I brought up the point about the pros that are made and not used other than to be used to snoop, as for being on other forums and not posting, if im NOT going to contribute, i DONT JOIN, im on six forims total, and in some form or other i make sure to add sonething, otherwise its pointless to join no?? But again maybe its my age, idk!!!

I'm beginning to think its pointless talking about these things. We seem to be in the vast minority about these concerns.

^ That does not happen to me. Is your pop up blocker not working? If not... Get adblockplus! You can't make everyone who uses turbo image stop using it because you get ads.. That would be very silly, I think. I hate attatchments, image venue & image bam, but I can't make people not use them just for my benefit.

Also, viewing my topics.. Someone said the other week they could not view mine, but I could, then just now I got a board message? it'll probably be working again shortly because it works for the other person now, but.. What's up with that?

I have an ad blocking application on my computer. I have no problems with Imagebam or Imagevenue, those two hosts do not send you to a different site instead of seeing the picture(s) you want to see, unlike what Turboimagehost does when you try to see some.

^ If you have adblockplus you get no ads. Problem solved. Turboimagehost is the most reliable Image hosting site that I know of (meaning images don't randomly appear/disappear).

It was directing me to a site that was selling movies which the others do not do. The links to the pictures were correct too.

^ Correct?

And ads are ads.. Image venue takes me to an adult chat site. Lol. Either put up with them or get an ad blocker.

Weird, I don't get anything when I view content that is hosted on Imagevenue. I know when you use ShareNXS, LiveJasmine usually pops up when you try viewing the pictures. I do have Ad Block Plus.

Quick fav to the admin here, i love the current set of emoticons at the moment but i see one we need to add big time.

I bring to u.....the "BUMP" emoticon

Hopefully u will take my request into consideration, thx

my sister told me that she created an account here and that she was not able to activate her account, she said that she never received on email to activate her account.

so weird. i don't have any of those issues. i know when i used imagebam or imagevenue poeple from fs used to complain about th same thing.

I'm afraid I don't fully understand what purpose it would serve to punish non-participation. Members are free to come and go as they choose, it'd be a great shame if people started posting purely because they felt obligated to.

PLUS Bellazon does not delete profiles.

I was little bored this week, so i check some members birthdays, and i saw more than 20 members, who registered from period of 2007-2011 and they all have only one visit on forum (at they registration day). Most of them from ages 35-50. Not sure we will see them again here. (maybe in another 5 years?)

 

One more - i really have no words, maybe only - well done. (Y)

What is the username ?

is Lilah

The system didn't show record of the name .

okay, I'll tell her that she needs to create another account and start all over again.

Well... this topic is dead. ._. Doesn't anyone care anymore?

Moving on..... Why can't we edit are own topics? It would be so good if we could.

Also... Having a post que? If that makes sense? Or stopping people from posting until we've actually had time to get more info, etc. ?
