G'day Guys,

Welcome to the Speedo Forum.

If you are a guest, you can only see a small portion of the forum. Members like posting their speedo selfies so I don't like that to be 100% public. However, joining is free.

If you are a new member, you need to email me your username so I can manually activate your account. This is a pain (for you and me) but it is the only way I've been able to keep the spam bots from ruining the forum. My email address is: DaveEvans@SpeedoFetish.com

This forum is free and I don't allow any advertising (except my own sites), if you would like to donate please click the link above, all donations go towards the hosting and maintenance of the forum for everyone to enjoy.

What do you guys think about compulsory login?

Post by Justin » Sat Jul 08, 2006 11:03 pm

Hey guys,

I've got one of Dave's guys doing some work on the blog (super technical stuff that I don't know about) later this week.

1 thing he is going to fix is your 'avatar' (that is your profile picture) so you can upload that. And he is going to make it so you can 'upload' photos that we want to submit.

One other thing I was thinking about was 'forcing' a login. This forum is for all of us so I won't do it unless you guys think it will work.

The pros and cons....

Pros - means you can send people private messages. We keep track of different personalities on the board.

Cons - people might post less often.

Let me know your thoughts.


Justin

J,

Nah there hasn't been much spam so far. I think I've only deleted 2 posts and both were of people saying they were 14yo.

I don't mind logging in Justin. Mine is set on the auto login so I can't remember when I last had to do it manually.

Hey guys,

I've changed the compulsory login stuff and I think it is working smoothly now.

Planning on having the picture and avatar (that is the little picture on your profile) uploading stuff ready by mid week.

Any probs let me know.

I find it fairly easy to login, especially since there is the automatic login available. I've experienced no problems. Thanks for asking.
