That's 8 that can get the boot right away. That post is months old.

When I read this I immediately got the fear and raced over to see if I had thanked the post, Thank god I had!

I want to echo the thanks from others - I love this forum and the cooking club and I'm already thinking about what to do for my recipe (which is in November!).

I don't know about bans only because the 'banned' can still view everything, they just can't post. Unless you're very active, you're not going to care really. I don't know what the answer is. I agree that having back ups is a great idea. Call on me if you need a stand in too.

I'm going to break in here to say thank you to the mods- the work load must be huge! For one, I really appreciate what ye put in to TCC.

I don't post at all regularly, but I love TCC, and I am one of the people that looks forward to a new recipe each week.

I don't think I've posted here before but I'm a very very regular lurker and avid reader of the recipes and have tried a few.

Basically I want to jump on the mini bandwagon and thank all you mods for all your hard work.

There has been some good suggestions given by regular posters so I don't think there's much point in me throwing my 2c in as well.

So well done on all the hard work and keep it up (please!)

I also agree that the C&R forum is one of the best so thanks to all! I guess I do more lurking than posting but I really enjoy the recipes on the tcc as well and often search around the old posts for ideas.

A lot of good suggestions were already posted and honestly I personally don't think they are too harsh -- its not that big of a committment to remember to post and if you don't then pay the consequences. Simple as that. Most people will eventually forgive you

The only other idea I could come up with is this: since the club is so popular, why not increase the volume so a slip up here and there is not missed as much. For example, assign 2 people to each week, instead of one. This may not be possible if there are not enough people willing to participate, but perhaps some people would even do it twice a year (a year's a long time!)... I know this creates more work, but possibly can be delegated to a volunteer to put together.

Just some more food for thought
