[damngoodman999]

I was wondering where all the guyz in the TDF forum went ?? now a days i dont see many of them , the replies are becoming Dull - many of them are vanished ?? why any particular reason ??

You already know the reason.
Truckload of bugs, lots of spammers & bad forum mangement - what else do you need to get rid of members?

[pimpom]

^^The spamming is relatively recent and still not too bad, but I completely agree with the rest.

[R2K]

i am here......

[damngoodman999]

Please if any MODS or ADMIN see ing this thread please take in to count & make everyone present in the TDF .

In day i used to be here in this forum for atleast 6hrs per day but with out members i think this forum is really going down look @ the NEWPOSTS - its very very less

[girish.g]

wat, is this like an attendance or something. IMO the threads are less here cause people have migrated to TE forums

[damngoodman999]

Ya its like attendance so we can know how many members are really there now @ TDF

Allow me to add a couple more things that have driven away members:

> Noobs who start arguments and clutter threads.

> Self-obsessed trolls who find nothing more fulfilling than putting down others who disagree with them.

And another thing, no one can force or ask or request any member to visit/post regularly here. They come here as per their wishes. It's their choice whether to reply to a thread or not.

1)separate moderator is require for each section.
2)when the problem of the user solved the post should should be closed so that further spanning can be prevented by auto bot or the person.
3)The new user registration should pass the human test so that auto bots can't register in mass
4)Zero post accounts and accounts un-activate for more than 2 months should be removed as we require quality not quantity
5)Fine tunning of the forum is required.
6)Time to time competition and prices should be given.

Its fairly obvious
Most people in Software Troubleshooting or any other thread are n00bs who dont even want to Google, or share info completely about the prob, use SMS language or just ask a query and disappear.
What more do you want to piss off seniors?

[damngoodman999]

Zero post accounts and accounts un-activate for more than 2 months should be removed as we require quality not quantity

Good point

Noobs who start arguments and clutter threads.

nice



I think Mods & Admins should take this Thread in to count , i think these points are not hard to solve !!

Not required. Enough mods and I would say active mods. Kalpik, Metal, Indyan, Pathik, Hitboxx, Shantanu etc. And spamming is heavily dropped. So....

2)when the problem of the user solved the post should should be closed so that further spanning can be prevented by auto bot or the person.

Not suitable. An user who uses the search button b4 creating a new thread may just get his problem solved by posting in related threads. Bumps r not always bad.

3)The new user registration should pass the human test so that auto bots can't register in mass

I guess its there now. I don't se too many spams now.

4)Zero post accounts and accounts un-activate for more than 2 months should be removed as we require quality not quantity

I don't support this at all. I've seen people returning here after 2-3 yrs.

5)Fine tunning of the forum is required.

Its WIP. b/w why don't u visit the "Forum Improvement suggestion" thread.

6)Time to time competition and prices should be given.

??!!! Elaborate plz.

For what they are coming requesting some replies & then they vanish , but we all make the debate finally after 1 months checking the replies and that too for an idea ??

[sujoyp]

me too present

but guys y do u think being noob is bad here...ultimately we are here to share our knowledge isnt it...discussion is always welcome

[Krazy Bluez]

I'm present too, but I think most of the users are now spending more time in Chat-Rooms than here... coz i see many of them active there...

u r right we all start frm noob !!

[pimpom]

Yes, we should remember that we were all noobs once, not only in the forum but also in most things. We should be tolerant when a newbie makes a silly post and gently correct him/her without coming down too hard or making fun of them. Who knows, today's noob may become tomorrow's valuable member.

However, there are certain types, noob or not, that often irritate me. It's the arrogant type and the pretentious type.

[alexanderthegreat]

Well, I'm back! I guess I'm not one of old genius leet types, but I don't mind!

I had to be offline for some time. I missed this place a lot (missed the bugs too ).

[damngoodman999]

happy to see of all them

[nvidia]

I'm still here. I visit the forum everyday but I'm not posting anything much.

[Psychosocial]

I come here alot... atleast 5 times in a day but only post in Chit-Chat/Gamerz sections . Most of the queries in Hardware Troubleshooting/S/ware trwoubleshooting are too simple and repetitve (sugest me config for 30k, suggest a config for 35k, etc ). The forum is very mismanaged though. The drop down menu to jump to different sections is removed from the User CP, the forum is still a little slow with too many ads (now on both sides... WTF?).

LOL! Those are exactly the kind of noobs I was talking about.

[Psychosocial]

I hate the guys who think they know everything .. and the ones who dont use Google. Both of this types are found abudantly on TDF.
