Hi, I have an idea that will hopefully get few more new members. Right now the visiting guests are seeing a message telling them to join in order to take a full advantage of all the features of OrchidBoard. I have a feeling that some visitors are skeptical of joining for fear that they will be spammed or who knows what. I was hoping that you guys could leave comments on the page below with short messages for the skeptical users hopefully enticing them to join our group.

Once we have a bunch of messages, I will link it to the main page for the guests to see and hopefully decide to join us.

sorry, seems I'm the dense one. Right after I posted it had a power outage so couldn't test it. Permissions were messed up. I changed the above link to the proper thread, so check it out again...sorry

Default Marty...can you make this a "sticky"?

This thread is getting lost in the section it's in. It's a great idea and I know that my fellow members here would be pleased to add a comment. I think it should be sticky if it's going to stay in this section, or, give it it's own special place near the top of the forum list.
