Hey Tony,

Is there anyway to put a system on the forums to show who is present/online in the disscussions?

This would be a great help to the MIST forum to.

Yes but at least they would be fairly determined. Maybe we could have "fastest ever newbie" competitions.

300 posts doesnt seem that many thats all.

I agree it makes me feel insignificent (thinks that how you spell it) just joking ;)

I dunno. They sign up - it does not mean they post on the forums.

No10 is still a newbie, and he's been around for a while posting in the soccer section. Mind you he should be "staff" so clearly he has been missed in the cull, sorry in the census.

How many posts to qualify as a regular?

At the risk of removing the suspense, and providing you don't tell anybody. It's 300 posts and 7500 words. System updates once per day.

Whilst the management is fairly sure that "staff" will be staff they take no responsibility for anything the staff say. We do not guarantee that staff who are sacked will lose their "staff" status herein before they have a chance to post embarrassing revelations on the forums. We do not guarantee that the people who are not "staff" are not staff.

Please do not feed the staff.
