So you only redesign when the majority of your users start complaining about it? That seems like it would already been too late to me. If it's...
I think it's just slow overall right now, too. The holiday season is coming.....Fall is always so hit or miss with traffic, depending on the...
I sometimes do. I don't usually have many on a forum at all. I don't see much use for them. On blogs, though, I will use widgets to show top...
Wow. This is the first time I have seen it, too. It definitely stands out against other admin forums. Blue is pretty standard, so for this to be...
If there's actual harassment going on, then I warn them early.... or if it's already gone too far, I would get rid of them. I don't care if it's...
What's worse is when they *haven't* even run a mildly successful community. I hate when I see someone open an admin forum and it's the only time...
That's a good idea. I was only thinking about this from an appearance point of view only. You could potentially redesign a site entirely with new...
Just how often do you re-design your site? Are you the type that's constantly tweaking? Do you update it once every couple years? Do you change...
That's a good point. I don't like repeating myself either. At the same time, if a forum has a bunch of "new content," but nobody is discussing it,...
I am not familiar with sites putting down strictly community sites either. To each his/her own, I suppose. If someone says that, though, then I'm...
I'm usually already friends or regularly talking to the people before I make them staff, so that doesn't really change for me. They're usually...
Always the community. I may stumble across a forum because of the content, but I'm only going to join in for the community. I could get the...
Same here. I really don't like full fluid websites generally because they're going to really stretch things if I have a full window open. I would...
Of course! I won't always implement what they're asking for. I leave it open to discussion, though, and I do consider the suggestions given....
I think anyone could learn how to. I definitely don't think it's natural for everyone, though, or that everyone could be phenomenal. It's kind of...
Do you have an "about us" page on your forum? What kind of information do you list there? Do you have information about your staff, too, or just...
I would definitely want an anti-spam option of some sort. I like the idea of reducing the registration time, but not at the expense of making it...
Mine are mostly holding steady, I guess. I noticed a drop in some areas, but not a noticeable enough one to make me worry. The rest seem to be...
I mostly avoid the off topic stuff, too. It was a strange transition for me, but I found my own way around some of it, too. I'm addicted to the...
I always set up colors for various groups, too. It's not so much because I need a color for regular users, but rather, I like having mods and...
