Not sure about making it so you have to be registered to read the board, though. About half of NSC's daily users are 'lurkers'. Is it not a tad unfair alienating them?

yeah, i agree.

why don't we not bring sigs and avatars back at all?
it looks better without.

It lacks a lot of personality without signatures and avatars, when you're scanning down a page it's harder to pick out which posts you want to read and which to ignore...:angel:

Change the grey background to light blue, grey is so YESTERDAY, innit.

As for registering, it only takes a minute. The majority of people have never posted, some have been registered for over a year without saying anything. This is a shame.

5 and a half hours left.

I wish someone had asked me first.

Our 'problems' are not really bandwidth related, it's more a question of CPU/memory.

Of course - every little bit helps but it's not likely to make much difference.

Stopping guests being able to view the Big Board made a lot of difference.

Not at all - there were a lot of 'to busy' errors yesterday. Why penalise those that have taken the time to register and use NSC because of a couple of hundred 'lurkers' who haven't?

Registration takes a couple of minutes and once you're in, you're in.
