In fact I don't have to at all but to keep things clean and tidy on the server I had changed the MX Servers on drivermadness.net to Google Mails MX Servers so we can use the drivermadness.net domain for email via. the gmail service, so it save me having to worry about backing loads of emails which that is automatically done with the gmail service.

If I were to do this we would always have a limit stuck in our minds of 100 users. If I were to put it on the server we have enough space for 5000 email addresses and if we did it via. php and databases we could have unlimited.

I think 5000 is enough, but unlimited is better

IDK, we should vote, just imagine, in a couple of years, if we tighten up, we will be able to get this place be going big time, what i mean is is hopefully over a long, LONG period of time, maybe we will have enough users to take the place of 5000, hopefully one day this place will be as buzzing and exciting as atari community USED to be (its not any more and i know that for a fact becaseu they archived all of the driver, and getting up forums, and so that is going pretty bad for them), maybe one day our community will be huige, i sure hope so, right now this is a dream, but if we tighten up maybe we can fiill those 5000 spots, and have a huge community, but i guess that is what we are aiming for, right? or are we trying to stay small? IDK, but im pretty sur ethe idea is to become a big site, but this is getting off-topic, i have already created a topic for this, look for it in the general section...

I hope this site NOT to be like the site of the atari community ! Atari's forum is a HORROR, they are only people without brain who came posts some sh*t and never come back.
I prefer to stay under insider in a little, happy, nice and calm community =)
I wish intelligent people would come.

im not saying we should have people like the ppl at atari's community, im saying just the size; becasue i disliked most of the pople on that forum other than driver forum people there, all of the rest were mostly just a bunch of smartass people with nothing good to say, no hearts (or scratch that, they had hearts as cold as ice), and they were always talking about politics, i dont wanmt that here, but im saying if we had just as many poeple on the driver forum here as they had at the driver forum over there at atari community we'd be doing pretty well, see what im saying?

i like a small fourm where you know everybody, thats y im here

so you all are saying you prefer a tiny forum with like 20 active members? I mean not even a couple more members?

i think 40 would be good

i could settle with that, but first i would have to add about 10 to make it 50 and then id probally settle with that, becasue it would be a nice little number of people here, and that excludes spammers.

yeah thats good....

I don't really mind how many active users we have as long as we have at least around 20. But it would be nice to have 5000 not like it's ever going to happen but it just might one day.

If we ever got to the point were we had too many users we could create an underground forum where only users with over 200 or so posts can go in there and post! So they you can live in that area a little more if you prefer to stick with the people who you knew and remembered ever since the site started up!

Well when this site started up we never had any active users for almost a year, it felt like me starting up many topics and barely anyone replying.

It was until 10months down the track until this forum started to become popular and as we can see it's increasingly growing.

I just get bored when there is nothing to reply to!
I know there are many other things to do on my to do list but there are just some times when you prefer to chill out and read/post to some driver related things!

I think it wouls be better if only some members get access to the underground forum. DPLkicksASS has got about 480 posts now, but maybe someone will come, make 500 posts and we'll have him in the underground forum.
And if they are so many people it's gonna be confusing here. Maybe someone will have the username DPLkickSASS and the same avatar and signature as DKA (DPLkicksASS).


edit: I'm just thinking about another thing. The site was part of the Atari Community, no ? Madness, how did you do it to that ? You're not maybe a Edmondson … ?

^What does that mean?

Could someone use my name?

why would anyone use my sig and avatar?

and finally,

WHY ME!!!

the underground forum is an awesomely cool idea, itd be like having a secret party!!!!

yeh, on the site they'll still have the msuic player, well have the music player and the music mixer yeah

4 real, but back on topic, that really is a good idea, SO PPL ADVERTISE DAMMIT!!!


i guess now we are all being hypocritical

a music mixxer, yeah thahts cool. we could put Logic pro 7 online and then i'll play live music here is that possible ?

;D

IDK, but i hope so..
