Title: dubcc survey What are your views on.. guests?
Post by: Don Seer on September 18, 2003, 02:40:33 AM
I've got mixed views on this, while I think guests should be able to browse the news sections, i feel they maybe shouldnt be able to see the 'social' parts.
(btw: I will never allow guest/anonymous posting on this forum)

For me only 2 or 3 are an option, I dont like the idea of people not being able to see what they're getting, I think people dont sign up if they cant see what a forum holds for then, or how busy it is etc.

Way I see it, there are 3 options.

1 - Members Only - (Only members can view the board)
2 - Guest Limited Preview Mode (Guests can view the main forum and outbound, but not anything else.)
3 - Guests Full Preview (Guests can view the whole board (how it is now))


Just wondering how ya'll feel about it, and whether you've got an angle/option I havent thought of.


As things stand, I can only do 1 + 3 with the current forum software, the new forum software will allow case 2 as well.

I could also show a 'sign up' message when the forum is in guest limited preview mode.

I dont like the ideal of people seeing everything either.

I feel that guest should be able to view the forums or certain things, but not be able to post.

This is just my opinion :-\

Guests should be able to browse thru, but only in The Cennection section and not the rest, lol.... That could probably bring more members, and more discusions to the board, or? Huh....

Fuck the guests...anyone who stalks us, as a certified member, needs to be hunted down, doused with gasoline, hung from a tree, and set on fire until they breathe their last breath.




*just my personal thoughts* ;D

number 2... i dont think nonn-member should have to read that carp in the g-spot or train of thought.... gets kinda personal... and only member's should be able to see it... lol ;D

i thin guests should be able to view only parts of the forum. The second option. But not necessarily just the main forum, and outbound. I think they should be able to view one frum each section. Like, the Main Forum...TOT...and Keystyle. Or sumthin like that, so they can get a more broad idea what the board is about. Since its no longer JUST about rap.

well I have spent the last 6 hours of my life contemplating the decision, and I just can't decide!

the only thing I could come up with is to have an initiation for guests.  If they can listen to 20 min straight of Ja Rule, Nelly, and Bone Crusher then they should be allowed to kill themselves.
