I'm happy to be a part of it too :bigrinnin: !! @Pangor: I know for sure that a lot of webmaster are only "the men with the money" who own the site which has been built by someone else (a web designer for example), so he/she simply don't know what to do :bigrinnin: ... And there are many places where the webmaster is so busy with the store affairs that he ignores the newbies problems... For the new accounts you know that a valid email is required, but it's only an anti-register-bots measure, so if the user bump me I just know that he wants to access the site and I manually active him/her. I prune inactive users (who registered, activated but never logged int) and the users who never replied to the email on a regular basis, every 2 weeks, so he/she can register again if they want. I used to erase the account of the users who logged in a long time before but I stopped it (we shoud have a lot more of registered users now). The reason is that an user who want to login in after a long time could find annoying to register again, but I never cared of the total number of users, it could be of some interest if one has to present the site to banners/spam companies. not our case =; ... Another thing, I'll start a new topic about ab3dp and how to reach it and share the pictures on usenet: I think it's a very good way to do it ! I stopped to upload my pics some months ago only for laziness but you reminded me ab3dp :bigrinnin: amd I'll activate my news client soon :bigrinnin: !!! Thank you !
