fahr_side Posted March 29, 2012 Author Share Posted March 29, 2012 why do you suggest that I feel threatened? Because you show some anger at the mere suggestion of limits and attempt to slight me for raising the subject.

BDII Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Don't see how this is relevant to the subject but please feel free to elaborate. regardless of what it posted, an active forum is a healthy forum. Tide doesn't make money when the forum is dead. Vendors won't pay to join a forum that limits the amount of posts a member can post in one day. Adsense doesn't work when members are not continually changing pages. Websites don't build ranking when members don't spend time on them. I've built and sold several forums and I've never seen one that is successful by limiting posts. Need forum help? Private Message legGTLT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fahr_side Posted March 29, 2012 Author Share Posted March 29, 2012 regardless of what it posted, an active forum is a healthy forum. Tide doesn't make money when the forum is dead. I made the suggestion in the best faith because I believe new members are turned off or discouraged from posting when signal/noise ratio drops too low. Vendors won't pay to join a forum that limits the amount of posts a member can post in one day. Given the poor quality of some of our vendors, I wouldn't say that's a bad thing. And before you remind me the vendors pay the bills, I have on several occasions asked what I'd need to donate to see some of them gone. I've built and sold several forums and I've never seen one that is successful by limiting posts. Ah. Would it be uncharitable to suspect your definition of successful somehow includes a profitable sale? I'm more impressed with utility than profitability but I'd be interested to hear Tide's opinion, unless of course you're speaking on his behalf.

BDII Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 this is a business not charity. The sooner you understand that, the sooner you will move on from the ill-conceived notion that limiting posts will create a positive outcome. I don't speak for Chad, I speak for common sense.
