An Excellent Forum!
Quote:
As someone who has been collecting for several years, I cannot say how wonderful it is to have found a community such as this where ideas about our shared interest can be exchanges so openly and so easily. When I happened across the site about a year or so ago, I'd been removed from collecting for almost two years. This site and its friendly people gave me a renewed sense of interest and enjoyment in collecting. So, the best I can do is echo Danny's words and send out a big thank you to all of the members & moderators of this excellent forum. I want to especially thank Art for all his work and Dave, the first person to share with me the true sense of friendship that prevails here in responding to some of my first questions. Thanks to everyone and here's to the success of our forum! Kind Regards, Sean

Back to 330 !!
We were 450 Members in last October. Since Art recently operated his necessary homework (see thread "Dead email account purge"), we are now back to the figure of 330 Members... and maybe less as Art will, in January, be purging accounts that no longer have a valid email address.
What is the most important is the number of active Members, more than a population number in itself... So, lets' continue to contribute to the Forum; the best way to attract more and more new Members (and Contributors) !! Long life to this super Forum !! Ch. |

These accounts had artificially inflated the total membership amount. They were never registered members because they never completed the registration process. They hadn't replied to the email confirmation that was sent, thus they were "dead wood".
No big deal, this is the first "purging" I've done since the forum was started and some of these accounts were sitting there since 2002. As of this moment, there are 11 additional accounts with restricted access because of an inactive email address. All they can see is a special section saying "contact me with a valid email address to restore access". The only reason I haven't deleted their accounts is they have posted messages in the forum and if I delete them, all their posts show up as being posted by someone named "Guest". Art

First Happy New Year to all. As a new member, last week, I am both excited and happy to share in this forum with all of you that have been collecting for many years. I am sure that I will have many questions concerning my collection and welcome any of your comments. Be safe and enjoy the New Years celebration.
