i just seen that there is 37 active guests and only 2 members online

dont look in from outside come in and join in the forums

it only takes two minutes and cost you nothing

:) :)

This just gave me an idea....

:) :) :) I agree :) :) :) sign up and be active :) :) :)

37 Guests? I bet 30 of those were "poachers", looking to steal good answers for their other sites !!!

You should make it a 'Members Only' site like everybody else does,thatll stop the poachers !! ;)

What do you lads/lasses think of a testimonial part of the site..30 posts or less cant put anything up.

Aim it at guests?

Not sure about that,but 'members only' is prob the way to go,it'll weed out the chaff !!

I must say I do agree with 'members only'...but we are still a small forum..that will come in the future

I wouldnt say its a small forum at all......1,382 members cant be wrong ;)

I know its the same group of people making posts etc but its a pretty active forum and 'from small acorns come mighty oaks' !! So I def think members only is the way to go for this club,it'll keep the 'users/poachers' away and make things more exclusive for the loyal/active members :)

why lock away all that information, we should be a free, easy, friendly and become a place to obtain BMW information easily.

I knew a club that did that and google could not spider their threads as they never added gogole as a spider group. Their club was pretty big, meets would have 100 cars. Their site is like a ghost town now.

"Members Only" might be too exclusive for potential new members only considering buying their first BMW. Surely there is a different way to curb pillaging !!!

I still think poachers will still join if it was a members only club and still steal are ideas
