Title: 4247 Members?
Post by: drterror666 on March 06, 2009, 11:38:38 am: At the time of writing, we have 4247 members. There's only about 10 people who regularly contribute. Time for a clean up methinks.

@netbuddy - feel free to turn that into a percentage ;)

Post by: netbuddy on March 06, 2009, 01:16:12 pm: Well you have to remember that the list may be people who are content with the occasional mailer.

Even if they do not contribute in the forums, they may pop by on occasion.

Post by: chocadmin on March 07, 2009, 02:44:19 pm: I should really do a tidy up and remove all members who haven't voted on a product, or accessed the forum and registered more than a year ago. That might cut the numbers by 1000.

That is so very true. Every now and again an old face will reappear.

Title: Re: 4247 Members?
Post by: netbuddy on March 07, 2009, 11:47:54 pm: Bloody ~~forginers~~, ~~forniggers~~.... hmmm... foreigners, yay... got it.

What manufactures are doing is making sure that they have a product that is not named to offend in ANY language as well as make an international product identity.

So you should be ableto go to some country like a backwater village shop in albania and still get your Snickers and bottle of Cif.
