I have realized that these message boards have become very, very crowded. Its a great thing for newschoolers.com to have so many members and new ones coming in every day. Its great that you have probably one of the most active message boards in the world, and the success of ns.com has been unbelieveable.

But, there are so many members now that the boards have been crowded with new threads and posts that its impossible to read them all and keep up with everything. Im amazed at at the friendlyness of everyone though.
Ns.com just hasnt stayed the same little village-type community it once was. Now it feels like a city of people.
Its cool that theres so many people, but it just feels so much different than it did a year ago.

i would have to agree. I went out partying this weekend so i didn't get a chance to read the forum. I woke up this morning, went to read some stuff here and the entire first page on ski and non was totally yellow! Of course, being the ultra-motivated person i am, i just closed the browser and went back to bed.

it would be funny if matt harvey had a big button labled 'Delete' and when he pressed it, the member selected just dissolved in real life, like that old movie Tron... haha, that would be so funny

well.

A) people have to stop posting whatever they've got on their mind. unless it's something useful.

b) there are new threads that are have the exact same subject as other ones on the same page.

Mike, I completely agree with b) but a) is like the whole reason why I come here. To read and make pointless posts.

or he could just limit the amount of new threads that can be started every week, if that is even possible

Just read whatever looks interesting, because if it seems stupid to you, it may not seem that way to someone else.


Did that make *any* sense?

I think it would suck to be deleted just because you're new and not actively posting. I was on this site for a good 3 months before I got the courage to post. If it wasn't for that then you guys would have never known Juliet. sad. Wait hahaha you still don't know Juliet. Nevermind, yea screw it, delete people.

yeah thats a good idea. i wish harvey could do more with the site though..i mean, theres thousands of kids on here everyday, and he makes very very little money, just from donations. If he charged one dollar a month membership, that would pay for the server easily plus hed have cash. I think new people would still come just still have the guest feature of course

Twelve dollars a year isn't much at all. I'd be willing to pay that. I'm going to donate when I get my next pay-check.

its just the people who right nothing on the threads or just want to add there to sense in. the people with like 300 post should tone it down a bit

I'd be rather have over-active board then otherwise. Also, i'd be willing to have distinct memebership, because if big sponsors don't come soon, we'll be in trouble.
