As with anything, you only get out what you put in. Not many builds being posted, Jeepers has gone AWOL and his build was great to follow, even tiny mods with pictures get people interested and motivated to do their own stuff. Not many trip reports either, even though heaps of people are getting out and about. Just a few words and a couple of pics is all that is needed.
How do you change that? Who knows!

So, speaking of Jeepers.... One minute there .. next minute.. Phtttt - gone.
I guess the question on everyone's lips.. Who or what pissed him off this time??

Very true - you do only get out what you put in. 

Trip reports definitely don't need to be anything fancy (but also can be if you want them to be  ).  A few piccies and a quick summary is all that's needed.

Hey Jill.
What was the the Members give-a-way thread? Did we have one?
What about for every give-a-way item, a small donation must be made to the server fund by the recipient.

Have a minimum of  5 or 10 posts BEFORE a new member can post something for sale I agree - I have been trying all night to try and change the permissions - not having much luck but I will persevere

PM sent re software Jillsy

*possibly a calendar function so that if someone has booked in to stay somewhere and are keen for others to join them, they could note it in the calendar (in conjunction with a post on the Trips Board). This could possibly be a visual prompt for other Members to come along also?

Guess who got the Calendar Function working 

[Fizzie]

Had another thought earlier.

Would be nice to be able to add photos via an attachment as we currently do, but have them inserted where you want them in the text, rather than only at the bottom of the post.

I agree Fizzie!

A "First Unread Post" tab when you open a thread.  Find it handy on a couple of other forums I'm on. Saves scrolling down through the posts to find where I am up to on a thread.

It already has it.  When you open up a board any thread with NEW posts has a NEW button at the end and clicking on it goes to the first new unread post in the thread

I like the idea of a LIKE button.  Used properly it will let you know of people appreciate your post.  So long as it doesn't end up like a Facebook Like where people like everything they see.

Also keep the "say thanks" button as it is more special.

Keep the post count, as it makes it easier to answer questions.  Someone with 100s of posts might only need a yes / no when a member with a handful of posts will need a detailed answer.
