Let's Welcome The Newcomers To Boonex

Fellas,

Let's welcome the new faces in the crowd and the new members that have begun posting in the Boonex Blog (even if they haven't caught on to the rules yet). I find these new people to be totally interesting. Some of them are brilliant and some are like little lost lambs.

JTadeo and the other moderators are doing a fine job redirecting these folks and I predict that they are going to be busy for quite a while once the entire 50,000 members of the community know that its safe to post here. I suspect that thousands of members have deliberately stayed away from this forum because of all the former turmoil. And now they are beginning to surface.

If you are one of the old timers who have been posting here for a while (and you know who you are) then let's enjoy the fresh input and treat the new posters with respect! In addition to sending these newbies to the forums for help (drive over a cliff?) I recommend that the "Pundits" and the "Regulars" who are posting in this blog begin contacting them privately and helping them out or begin monitoring the forums themselves. I have begun helping people privately when I can. Remember the do-gooder's motto "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap!"

Does anyone know exactly "who is" monitoring the Forums?

I just looked at the forum which does not seem at all monitored at all what so ever, the forum is filled with spam, repeated questions! I know one can't stop both but if the forum was monitored the both can be reduced. So how come those forums are not monitored, are there not that many people to be able to assign? or those forums are not as popular as the blogs so no one cares to have them monitored?

I agree too, i help one member via PM too, well until he knows more than i do then i will be asking for return in favours LOL.

Technoman makes some valid points here about the forum, the thing though about the forum is the same problem we all have trying to run our own orca forum, it really isnt up to the job, not with something as large as this site, and half the members have probably kept away like juker said before so if they return to post too, then watch everything break... LOL. One of things see more

To be honest, I never posted in the blogs until today, but been a member since Oct 2007. The first time I downloaded Dolphin, my first thought was "Oh Boy, my very own social networking site!".. Yeah.. and then I woke up. Needless to say I have seen alot of changes over the years and have started back heavily working with my Dolphin and putting to use some of the great mods being offered at expertzzz. I am extremely excited about some of the new things in store for Dolphin.
