Open the Board to Non members?

Yes or No?

So they can just look not post.

Reason/Opinions would be good too

NO

dont think we should, anyway you done this before and iot was a resounding no!!!!!!!!

I'm a firm believer in if it ain't broken then don't fix it. Keep us as we are, we love it.

No.

If they want to read it then they can join it, and if they are dickheads you can show them the dickhead door out of here.

Haha, the dickhead door. I'll be using that term in the future.

No.

No, defaintly, if they want to read they can take 30seconds out and registor. It will also boost the site

Totally supprt this version! lol

If this was a paying site then this debate could be a different outcome - but if they are too lazy to register then why should they have the joys of our humour, fun and laughter and information!

NO NO NO

yes so i can view whats going on , when i'm at work on my blackberry, as things are i can only view the mm messageboard

Yes it should be opened up. Why is everyone so against it? Surely if a poster registers and reads then that has no advantage? What's the point in having 10k members but only 300 posters? Where's the benefit? If some people want to just read and not type why not let them?

From another point, this forum won't grow naturally as with registration only it won't allow the search engines to pick up posts and index them.

I agree with the points you made though, but if the majority want to keep it like this then that's what we should do.

NO

Too right ! The previous vote was no , this one`s the same, if people are going to come on here and read what members have posted, wether they post or not, they should be members too !

With 74% of the Votes it looks like it STAYS A PRIVATE MEMBERS CLUB, Whens the Strippers

Let's show Ridsdale the Dickhead door
