    I can't see why. One new member was sitebanned the other day after only two posts. :eek: It's not like he was even trolling or anything. :mad:

    Glad to have you .. :)

    Wish more 'readers ' would register.

    If you look at viewing Members & Guests list at the foot of the the After Hours front page, you will always see at least 50% more guests are here at any given time.

    Sometimes there can be 300 guests reading After Hours when there is only 100 or so members.

    I love when newbies sign up, new threads are fresh blood.

    Really grates me when I hear people complaining about the "old days" and how After Hours is going downhill.

    It's usually from people that never even start threads too which seems odd, as if it wasn't for people starting threads, these complainers wouldn't have an After Hours to post in.

    I'm here over four years, trust me, After Hours is just as good now if not better than what it was a couple of years back.

    It's not perfect, but it will get better, I feels it in my bones.

    Newbies = new threads = different opinions = more laughs = more wimminz = win.

    Some new men is cool too I suppose :p

    I felt sorry for him so I did.:(

    But you know what, he took it in such good part that I would consider letting him back in.

    /if it was up to me..:p

    Yeah, once you get to 500 posts you are initiated.

    Boards is really a collection of vampires looking to increase their numbers.

    Muuuhahahahahahahahaha...haha..haha.

    Lot of new people around but I think the sites stats are on a downward trend at the moment. More using spin off sites and the latest media, like Twitter which is irc for the masses.

    Am I the only one who thinks a thread like this coming from someone with a join date of Oct 2009 is funny?

    *cue someone here longer then me to call me a noob*

    Im registered about a year now, but only started posting about a week ago. So i consider myself a newbie, but isn't it a good thing to have fresh (meat) opinions and personalities to add variety to the threads?

    I don't quite know if that makes sense to anyone who reads this because it sure as hell doesn't to me, waffle-mania :cool:

    Mines broken but the rest of the mouse is still working. Is it broken enough for me to replace it though?

    I can still remember the care-free days of scrolling with my **** off finger. Easy street.....
