The forum will die if no-one knows it exists. Hiding it is not a long term solution.

People who can't distinguish between etymology and entomology bug me in ways I cannot put into words.

It's all good FD.
We all gotta die sometime. Just depends how?
Becoming a 'gated community' Forum ain't that bad.
We might gain notoriety of secrecy - It_is_the_Light might come back calling you FM for Freemasonry.

It's up to you. Save the Members you got or hope for a few members more? The good thing is that these Forums are not dying. New ones are being born still and doing well. Don't worry if Ozpol is not high on a search list. Those positions are usually paid for just like that Sydney dump listed in top 10 best liveable cities, etc.

Use the force.

Any long term action to regain members and increase post rate? YABB is no good for bigger boards like this—have to bite the bullet and upgrade some time! Moderating is a joke here! Abuse is endemic. FD?

Really?

Can you give me the first couple of numbers of your ip address?
You may be caught up in a range ban. I can fix it for you.

No one is saying to hide it. Keep this forum searchable. Just ban guests from entering the forum because they are dragging it to its knees. It's simple. What don't you get about that????
