Yes... Ummm no.

What do you like about NCT? What do you think could be better? Is there anything I should get rid of?

[Moon-Light]

* Moon-Light likes Diva, more pictures of you would be great :)

Do you have a starting suggestion for us Diva to get the ball rolling so to speak ? what would you like the site to be exactly ?

[Diva]

Good question. :D

I would like more people to sign up and join in on the conversations. I would like more people to start threads. And I would like to have the topics that you would enjoy.

[Moon-Light]

I like the nice warm atmosphere that is here, the friendly people that are on the forums.

The quality of the posts, Diva's rant are great, but I not too opinionated and not sure what to say, so I dont reply on them. I do feel they are good tho.

I enjoy reading the new bits that Diva finds, they are comical i think, I like Diva's comments on them also :)

The new smilies are great, The usernames are good also.

We could do with something that keeps us a little active more like the shoutbox

I cant think of anything else but I will try and come up with something.

Diva makes a huge effort in the site and I know we do too its the people on the site that make the site what it is, we just need to persuade people to post a little more or try and make them see that is a good place to be.

I am not sure what the conversion rate is for registered users to users who have made more than one post.

Darlin', the site is great. And I'm sure you all ready know what I'm gonna say, but I'll say it anyways just to get the subject into other peeps minds. I think a chat room would be great. Nothing fancy, as it might not get used as much as it could be, but something where we could go and chit chat and so on. Maybe something where once a month or so we could all get together and have a community chit chat.

Other than that, I can't really think of anything else you could have. As long as we have you, we all ready have anything.

* Boozer looks at the camera, shrugs, and acknowledges his ass kissing. "It's true!!"

[Moon-Light]

There is a hack over at vb.org to do just that :) it does use a commercial java applet for the irc window but there are loads of really decent free ones available for none commercial web sites like this one.

I think what Boozer said would be quite cool, altho I not sure I would ever get to chat to you all much, but it would be great for you guys, it would be more erm instant than the shoutbox.

[Boozer]

vb.org is a church website, dude.

[JakeD]

vbulletin.org!!!

[Moon-Light]

i know its vbulletin.org duh! but people in the know, would of know vb.org meant vbulletin.org like JakeD :)

its an abreviation on the name, sorry.

I think our Diva make's a good point. I think we should put more of our thoughts and ideas down as posts. Diva has been so wonderful as to give us a place to run and hide to, to just be ourselves. A place to hang out and meet (so to speak) the rest of the world. But our Goddess can only do so much.

Had a bad day at work? A great day at work? Got a new puppy, lost a puppy...share it with us. Nothing is too small or trivial. We are the members of this board, lets make it the best board on the net.

Now....there's no pressure here........oh this gun in my hand...oh that's nothing, nothing at all :devil: hehe...

[Boozer]

How about something that lets us know if there have been new pictures added to the gallery?

[Diva]

I have been toying with the idea of a chat feature. I would really like to have a larger userbase before I do this. I also worry that it might take away from the discussion on the board, which I do not want to happen.

I agree with the larger userbase before you do this, I also understand your worries.

you could always make a new user group in the vbulletin admin area and move a select few members to this new group, so we can atleast trial a chat feature :) iron out the bugs, maybe even restrict use of the chat system to a certain number of posts.

[Boozer]

Or only have it availbale at certain times of the month. Wait, that sound bad. BAH!! You know what I mean.

I don't know if it would take away from the forums, as we are all on at different times of the day. (Then again, I may be talking out my ass, too.)

I think more participation in general. Red's always good for some links as well as pictures. The bitchfest seems to be used too. But we should think about where else in the forum we can participate. The chat should be used after we use the forum... or else it's a whole lot of money for nothing.

I know I haven't been around, but I have been in contact with Diva. These kids are a rough batch and I haven't had free time in quite a while.

New people are going to want to see what NCT can offer them. Well, what can it offer right now? What do we have to offer?
