Members Jaymeister Posted December 7, 2006 Members Share Posted December 7, 2006 Not having access to a search function is getting beyond annoying. I'm sure we could discuss diverting resources from other areas of the forum to have the search...Here are some ideas...they are not exhaustive, and I have no idea if removing any of these would have an impact.

Members Wilbo26 Posted December 7, 2006 Members Share Posted December 7, 2006 Killing the more useless forums would be nice, but I think purging the inactive accounts is a must. If you look through the user list there are TONS of names with 0 posts. If they can go through and look for any username that hasn't logged on for the last year, send it a pm asking if they still use the account and then delete it a week later if there is no response. Even if that doesn't speed things up they need to do that.Of course doing that would lower the number they can trot out for "number of users" when they're making advertising deals...so I doubt it will happen. So yeah, kill Open Jam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members therhodeo Posted December 7, 2006 Members Share Posted December 7, 2006 Kill the unused forums, purge inactive members, and moderate the amp forum. That should cut down on alot of wasted space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members murch33 Posted December 7, 2006 Members Share Posted December 7, 2006 Doing away with PM's would be an even dumber move than killing the search function. The forums would be flooded with "Hey inscho..." threads, or whoever. I'm not just picking on the lil' tiger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, and I've got another one: NO MORE {censored}ING INTEGRATED VIDEOS PLAYING ON THE FRONT PAGE!!! WHAT A HUGE {censored}ING ANNOYANCE AND WASTE OF SPACE!!!! ARRGGGGGGGG!
