    Whilst the Leeds board is ticking over, I feel that we can do more to introduce new blood to our forum.

    If you look at the clubs with the most members / posts, they all have a thread introducing and welcoming members to the board. (Have a look at Newcastle and Southampton)...

    I feel we are missing a trick with twitter. I have started to tweet links to our threads, hoping for new members to join. It would be great if you all could do the same, and retweed other not606 Leeds activity. My twitter account is EllandBack1.

    When newbie's come to the board, we need to make them welcome. Sometimes a newbie's post won't appear straight away on a thread until a mod validates the post, so we need to keep checking http://www.not606.com/modcp/index.php?loc=moderate.php?do=posts.

    Does anyone have any idea's that they think we should implement to make this an even better board?

    Personally, I'd like the app to tell me when there's an update since I last read the thread list page (in the top tab, just like FB, mail etc.). Would save me blimmin' refreshing all the time to find that there have been no updates to read.

    There's also a bug in it where the forum listing will refuse to load at all, without first switching to another listing such as articles for example, and then returning the forum listing. It's quite annoying, could do with a working "refresh".

    Are these things that mods can do at club level, or are these things for the big man upstairs?

    Requires reprogramming the app, so I'd imagine it goes all the way to the nerd locked in the cellar with a computer.

    Then PM the lot of them, and ask them why the cluck they're not contributing to our fine discussions, and explain that you'll be mortally offended and prone to violence if they don't pipe up pronto.

    Also, when we get in the new year and hopefully get some new signings, momentum and change at the club, it may be nice to have a new banner for this forum which is more contemporary and forward-looking, as well as remembering our proud past at the same time.

    The anachronistic representation of something as existing before its proper or historical time, as in the precolonial United States.
