Is it my imagination or a fact that every time I look at the foot of this forum's leader page the membership has grown by another 2 or 3. Tweedsider The member sign up log is a feature that is automatic. People agree to Proboards terms and they are automatically signed in. Some fora (not the usual fishing sites) operate an approval system where the admin has to approve before they get activated and others have a system where they restrict who can sign up and the admin team has to register the member. We would only choose that kind of control if we had a serious disruption problem. The number of sign ups is real and it is not something we would wish to alter, either upwards or downwards. In fact if anything we pride ourselves on the activity levels that this forum has as that is the true measure of the quality and atmosphere. Recently I started sending a welcome PM to the new signups to introduce our site. I thought this would be preferrable than people seeing me post one liners and I could get more detail across. However, I am now a bit of a slave to it because we have had such a rush in the last week or so that I now have a backlog and I am struggling to keep up. If I have missed anyone, please accept my apologies and send me a PM please. salmo
