New members - Orchid Board

Marty · #1 06-21-2006, 11:03 PM

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.

Leave comment here for non registered visitors

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.

Feeling a bit dense....clicked on the link, not sure how to leave a message...or is that a massage

help!

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

Looks very good...

message is in the header of the forum (visible only when you're not logged in)

we could use few more comments though

...thanks to those that posted

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.
