been a while since we had someone new join baf. introductions was looking a bit bare -_- ^_^

...yeah..new recrutes are kinda slow...we need some drafting to do... :E :E

Acually I've scene quiet a few new members toddling in here and there this weak ^-^ however i dont think they realise there is an introduction section ^-^' Either that or they joined for the pictures.

Kitori's right, there have been quite a few new members but most just join to see/get the pics.

i don't even introduced my self here when i first joined last july 8 '05...maybe they must first oblige the new ones to first introduced before they can post and pick some things here in angel-feathers....

if you look at the number of members in the top left hand corner you can see there has been a good rise in numbers, only two days ago the figure was 800, now it is 814. But most of them are probably leechers anyway, we only want proper members that participate.

people shouldn't be shy to come onto the forums ^-^ besides now there are 823 members and I've seen a few of them on too. Once again probably for the pictures ^-^ Maybe we should pm then to join the forums :D

nah, that wouldnt work, if theyre hardcore leechers then they would just ignore the PMs , they've most likely got all the pictures and left already anyway.

all these leechers are confusing the actual members numbers, maybe there should be a minimum level (say Angel class) before members can download pics? i dunno

I think we already tried that minimum level to see pics & dl them before.But there were to many complaints.

I believe there was a new rule put in when BAF reopened that no user acconts would be deleted, even if they are unactive.

yeah. they should impose a rule that will delete users that left their accounts for more than a period of time...
this way, many inactive accounts will be deleted and the system will be lighter...

Thats how it was with the older version of BAF...any inactive user was deleted..but more came back....
Yes some people do just join for the pics...and some people never want to come to the forums because there is sooo much to read..so they feel lazy and just leave and take the pics......
I seen on other sites myself....After I joined..and checked out the fourms..and it was huge!!! O.O there were sooo many threads..and questions that has been asked already...it was of course almost impossible to read all of them...But I did post on intro threads and put myself in some of threads before I left...T_T maybe thats why some people dont want to go on forums...

That's how I am when I join new sites Kei.When I look at the forums & see how big they are I just want to fall back & think *no way I'm goin to post here*.

Too my mind there's no point joining an online community if you don't take an active part in the forums and stuff

Yeah thats true...^_^
