Well as a few of you may have been able to tell, there has not been constant moderation of this forum.
I thought it high time to free up some of our website for latest information and other promising posts from all members.

This will be a gradual process for me to get through, but if there are any particular posts on here and OFF-Line Topics please let me know so that I dont delete them.
I will be starting from the oldest posts first, and everything within the last 3 months should be safe at this stage.

Thanx
Stephen.

Good idea-

I'll go through the ppl who joined in Sept last year and email them to see if they want to stay members. That will delete a few surplus accounts.

Could you be more specific in detailing what criteria you will be using to determine what is kept and what is deleted?

I've just done a bit of a cleanup with people who have not visited for 12months & posted less than 5 replies.

My apologies if you have been accidentally deleted, just join again!

I also removed a handful of avatars over 100kb in size. The usual 120x80pixel avatar (like mine) is only 30kb, so although all avatars are displayed as small pictures they will be stored as large files.

If you've had your's deleted just re-size it down to about 120x120 pixels and re-load it.

RESIST is moving to Sydney and will probably not act as moderator while he gets organised, so if anyone wants to volunteer to cleanup the many posts on the forum, let me know.

It takes up quite a few hours, reading and deleting stuff, so you have to be keen!

cheers

Well dont I feel bad. Haha, I forgot that I put this post up.

Thanks Keith with the help - I would have no idea about those unfrequent members. And also for the support and help from you others who have volunteered and now appear to be 'Moderators'.

It's GREAT - and there are so many posts up here.

BTW : Anything that I edit I am saving links or even forum posts where needed. And only deleting or closing what needs to done.

I've just been going through the Post A Pic Of Your Car thread and noticed that Jason noted that we should go through and delete all posts that dont have pics, and all ones that do, make sure they are all hosted on an external Image Hosting site.

Been doing the images on there, tomorrow will start deleting posts without any pics.

Can see that Jason got through to about page 7 roughly, will spend some time on that tomorrow.

Just checking that no one has any major objections to me going through this thread and deleting any post without a pic?

This thread has gotten rather large, and while the feedback on people's cars is welcome it dilutes the pics for anyone who wants to browse just for them.

Maybe we could pull the pics from this thread, resize them so they're all fairly consistent and lay them out on a webpage? I've had quite a few hits on my little website from people searching with the keywords "altezza+pics", so it could be a good way to attract people to our neck of the woods...

Sounds good to me-

I go through the "introduce yourself" forum ever now and then and remove the comments a few months back.

Doing a great job Nick, just out of interest how much space / cost are we saving by posting images on the other sites.

I am now questioning whether moving all photos to a different site is really wise.

I suspect someone would have to repeat what's been done to restore the photos back to the forum site, if for some reason we can no longer keep the photos at that site.

I'm thinking it may be better to leave them on the forum and pay any extra.

Open for discussion.

Cheers.

A good point Colin..

I've paid up to 300meg space now, we've used about 220meg of that. If we doubled in size it wouldn't be a problem for the next four years, as more people will continue to become VIPs.

I would worry if we ran a big gallery on here, but the technical stuff is good to keep on site.

Who knows what will crash first... :o
