this is regarding the email, all us members were sent
erm dont think im being rude/annoying or whatever but i think forcing people to post isnt a good idea
you asked people ot sign up to ur site and they did but when people are other forums and also have a life they may not realy want to post her/ may not have as much time as us to come on here.
telling them their account will be deleted as a threat hmm i really dont think that will bother them, they'll probably be glad of it
im not getting at you matt, i know you want more members and people to post but it takes time for a new forum to get up and running. it will never be as busy as say the ABRSM forum. forcing people to post isnt the way about it
sorry if ive offended you

no worries.
I'm not forcing people to post at all! I was simply saying that if you're gonna make an account it seems silly not to post! Take 'cheeble' for example. Cheeble was the third person here, after me and tremololo, but (s)he hasn't posted yet - this is after a month! Fred and jamesticle signed up a month or so ago - they've posted once each! And proboards screwed elmo over by not sending the password...that's been resolved now though. As far as the other three go - if they didn't want to post, don't sign up / they needn't be like you & tremololo posting in the hundreds but they do need to post once in a while!
I'll scrap the idea of deleting members - that was a little harsh i suppose...and I think you'd be hard pushed to find another music forum anywhere on the web which is more active than the ABRSM boards...
And it takes alot more than that to offend me...no worries :-)

ok i was just giving my thoughts, helping you out a little
as for cheeble- she hasnt posted on the ABRSM boards for a while either and isnt often on MSN. so fair enough about seems silly not to make an account and not post but i guess the AB boards and others might take priority over what little time some poeple have becasue theyve been on there longer etc
i dunno, ill shut up now

Matt. Do not fret! This is a great site and if you mantain it then more members will come as a matter of course. I'm sure it's plenty of work but remember human nature will fight against rules & regulations. Like I always said in previous posts... Passion & interest, motivation and ideas will triumph over members who only post once or twice, it is their loss mate. Good points musicbabe but no-one should take anything personally. Jazzking.

*ahem* A message from Cheeble: "I'm really sorry I haven't posted, I've been busy with A-levels and concerts and was then away in Portugal, and I can't get on now because I've forgotten my password"
