Is it time to lock the forum ? - mr.pure - 05-04-09
Some forums are of interest to loads of people like www.iliketoast.com.
Others are of interest to quite a lot of people like Crooked Tongues.
But the number of people that are interested enough in Adidas Superstars to actually bother to join a forum like this one has got to be limited.
I can't imagine there are more than 600 hundred, maximum 1000 people in the world who properly give a shit.
Well I reckon we've got everyone who gives a shit and fancies talking about it.
If someone who's serious comes along later then they can prove it in some way, through photos or something and then, for sure, they can come right in but let's be honest, we're properly dredging the bottom of the barrel nowadays.
Although it can be entertaining, these idiots are an annoyance, at best, but more likely they turn out to be a solid pain in the arse !
Some of us have already decided, I just wondered what y'all thought.

One or 2 of these people every now and again can be amusing, but every time I log on there seems to be some new idiot, who more often than not goes off on one cos he/she/it feels hard done by.

I must admit I panicked when I read the title, but was alright after I read the intro!

How about locking everything except Intro, Chat and Fake Spotting, then people can join in and be given access to the rest if they're sound.

My opinion, i say let everyone in but give them a set limited amount of posts to prove their worth if you like, then after set amont of posts you mods make the desicion, i think we all trust your judgement and will probably all agree with the outcome
..........or something like that

i´m here for nearly 2 years now and my english is still shit. 
however, when it comes to the wonderful newbies, do it! close all doors and eat the keys!

I think it might be worth closing the forum to new members, and if someone wants to join then perhaps they can send an email to the mods with an intro or something? And then if the mods approve then they can join?
