Suggestion...

Posted by Anonymous on Monday, July 11, 2005 9:10 PM

O.k. I think you guys (finescale) made us shorten our sig. because of memory problems, slow site whatever, I have no problem with that, but you guys have 2291 pages of people that have not posted a single thing (45820people) I think it is a waste of time keeping them on record, you guys should delete them because I think they would be taking up a lot of memory. Also, you guys should have a minimum of posts that they have to make before you delete the account. These people are not contributing so what use is it to keep them?

Just an idea...

not necesarily a bad idea, but I thought the reason for the sig line change was for the folks still on dial up. Having lived in that world until very recently, I can testify that some of those were just hellish at 56K.

dead bodies on a DB takes up no memory, this server is pretty quick also, the sig issue is as mentioned, not everyone has an 8meg connection.

Some of the "Online Extra" galleries and articles are available only if you register a login name with the FSM site. Nothing wrong if those people choose not to participate in the forum area.

Absolutely right!

Besides, what the heck would we do if all 50,000-plus members posted even ONCE a day??

I get little enough modelling done as it is... Wink [;)]

Are sigs that important? Some are so complicated it's hard to find the message. So forget sigs and post counts-let's just talk.
