I think the major problems the forum is facing is 1 Not much of posters(Out of all the registered only 10% post) 2 Not a that active forum .......         Back To Top   Sat Dec 02, 2006 5:21 pm Author Message Mirage I'm a chatterbox!

It's nearabouts right here, but yes we could do with about 10 more active posters. Well I don't know, what does everybody else think? It's a shame people sign up and then never post, I don't get that. Maybe MUTU can send an email out to all registered members and give them a good kick up the bum.         Back To Top   Sun Dec 03, 2006 1:36 pm Author Message kevh26 I'm a chatterbox!

I'm not sure how many other non official Bayern sites there are, but it could be worthwhile establishing some form of affiliation with some more reputable ones         Back To Top   Sun Dec 03, 2006 4:05 pm Author Message fa Moderator Joined: 21 Aug 2006 Posts: 306 votes: 3 Post subject: I do hope that no one is afraid to post or share his/her opinion!!

Also, there were times were I simply would rather read and not say anything. Of course, there were times when I would post and no one would respond to my post, which made me feel unwanted so I stopped posting. This board is not like that at all. Bayern is a global team. They have fans all over the world. The problem could be that there are fans out there who would like to express their thoughts but are uncomfortable writing in English. Some may be embarrassed because their English is not good at all and just don't realized that people don't care if their English is not perfect. For me, I would love to see more people participate on the board because everyone has something to contribute and I can always learn more about Bayern and their fans.         Back To Top   Sun Dec 03, 2006 10:53 pm Author Message podolski4life I'm a chatterbox!

Agree with Mirage, an email would be the best shot at doing that.         Back To Top   Sat Dec 09, 2006 2:59 pm Author Message dracus I'm a chatterbox!

Or, their first post has to be approved before it's allowed on the board. Other wise they just have to delete the spammer's post and threads as they come along.         Back To Top   Sun Dec 10, 2006 2:27 pm Author Message MUTU Site Admin Joined: 15 Aug 2006 Posts: 2170 Location: Malta votes: 8 Post subject: kevh26 wrote: I think the key area as far as new posters are concerned is simply that, MUTU, Dracus, FA, TracyLyn, FanOfBayern, Myself, Sweinirules, Mirage, Supr4king and Podolski4life have the vast majority of posts, this could prove intimidating to many new posters, I know that when someone joins a forum as sees a sort of 'established' community it becomes difficult for them to feel comfortable Good point. That's why I put the introduction thread, so people have a place where to start from kevh26 wrote: secondly, Mark, how goes the advertising? have you seen an improvement? Not really. Up to now I've only made financial loss on the website. And things don't show any signs of improving, especially now that I'll be moving us to ultra reliable web hosting (which is more expensive) since the current web hosting is giving reliability problems which I'm sure all the regulars have come across every now and then. kevh26 wrote: I'm not sure how many other non official Bayern sites there are, but it could be worthwhile establishing some form of affiliation with some more reputable ones I had looked around, but all the ones I found were in German, so that's not very targetted traffic. Maybe I'll look around later, or maybe someone here knows about some other English site? dracus wrote: A lot of spammers are posting a lot of trash.I wonder how could we take some action Unfortunately there's not much we can do about this. But we now have 3 moderators who can help delete the spam threads as soon as we can.

It would only be useful if the 3 moderators visit the forum at different times.i.e. at regular intervals of 8 hours.But since they seem to have similiar world times,it gets delayed in clearing the junk that has been posted         Back To Top   Wed Jan 17, 2007 3:59 pm Author Message dracus I'm a chatterbox!

Or at least that´s what I do. I hope I don´t post too much (spam). If I do, let me know.         Back To Top   Wed Jan 17, 2007 6:11 pm Author Message Schweini_rules I'm a chatterbox!
