Shadman, A possible idea?
 
For the "Guests".... is there a way to limit their usage of looking at the site to only like 3-5 minutes ? Their getting a "free ride" on here... kinda taking advantage.. dontchya think ? Let us know something... maybe put a timer on their "viewing" of the site... that way maybe they'll sign up after getting a taste of Louisiana's #1 website !!!!

That sounds like a great idea. Either that or limit them to a preview of the post. Let them view the original post and the first 5 responses.

cmdrost 12-16-2009 05:09 PM

Jordan 12-16-2009 05:10 PM

or just the original post... and have a little note at the bottom of the Original post saying, "You can read responses by Registering here"

I think most of the guest are members that just aren't logged in. I for one am always jumping on from different computers and usually just read to see whats going on...my .02

ShadMan 12-16-2009 09:28 PM

People are welcome to just lurk here if they wish...they won't be penalized for it. They just don't have the opportunity to jump in and be a part of this great community if they don't register. But ultimately it's their choice.

Right now approximately 80% of our viewers are not registered. I'd like to have a larger percentage of our readers participating, but it can't be forced. ;)

Ray 12-16-2009 09:31 PM

If you force them, they will go elsewhere.

But this is the best place on the internet for SW La. hunting and fishing.
All the other forums are about SE La.

elebouef 12-16-2009 09:47 PM

Why does it bother you if they look at it without signing in? Sometimes I get on without logging in because for whatever reason my computer logged me off. If you have nothing to hide why let it bother you?

QUACKHEAD 12-16-2009 10:19 PM

I don't see it as a bother that they aren't registered, but their input about areas that I may not know may help my day not only better, but maybe safer while I am on the water. Such as, if there is a very high tide on Calcasieu Lake and you are unfamilier with it, you could run on top of the old jetties if you was not warned of it. Wooden post at water level on the north end. Also on this site we have the opportunity to fish with one another and get to know each other and become friends. So if I see a friend broke down on the waterway, do you think I will just go past him as most people do now? So yes, I would like to see more sign onto SC and I hope to meet them. My life and theirs may depend on it. I am signed up on the other site also, I have never seen the comrodery from fisherman to fisherman as here. All you have to do is read some of the threads of members with illnesses in their families. Look at all the responces of prayers being sent for one another. That's real cool. I could go on and on but then it would be a novel, and I think you get the picture.:cool:

When they read this thread they might be gone for good.

Somedays I check it out and stay for a while. Others, If dont see anything interesting, like, lets try to get money out of everybody, my stay is very short that day. If you want to charge everyone, you will limit yourself to a very small group of people who are willing to pay. Number 1 is a relative term relating only to what others think of you. If you limit the "others" only to those willing to pay, the lofty status, self proclaimed or otherwise has a very short lived, radiant burst across the sky as it burns out.
It is much better to sustain an even, planned, and manageable growth. Become good at what you do. Otherwise, you lose control, crash and burn.

I log in so I can see the post since I last looked.
I don't have to look thru all of them to figure out
what is new and what I already looked at.

Ohhh Captain My Captain...

Jordan 12-17-2009 09:20 AM

i didnt say to charge anyone... i said "LIMIT" their usage of the site... i've been on a few sites that only let you look at it for a few minutes and then it says "Site busy" with a little note and then a signup or a register button.

That sort of information is most important to all I believe from a safety standpoint. What wooden post? At Big Lake I'm assuming?

Another Example: Someone complained about running over the marked reefs in Big Lake that are good for drifting over. I never knew about this and still don't know much other than to keep an eye for a white PVC pipe. This past summer with my kids. I'd seen an iron pipe south of the steam engine on the way to the old jetties cutoff right at the top of the water level on a low tide. Had to swerve to miss it. Where does SC collect the information on these obstructions and mystery poles? What are all of the stakes just south of the old jetties anyway? Where can I find that info?

Gottogo49 12-17-2009 10:25 AM

I'm kinda like elebouef, I am a member but I don't always log on unless I feel that I have something positive to contribute. I learned a lot about oystering yesterday. If this weather lets up I may have a positive fishing report to contribute. Maybe duck hunting will give me something to post. I'm learning about forums and posting options.

Post it up! It doesn't matter guys and gals...we enjoy these contributions because each of us have an affinity for the outdoors, a general willingness to help others, and utilize reports, stories, jokes, etc to escape from the daily grind!!! So either way, if your reading or your posting your important to this website.

that iron post on like to scared me to death the other day its not very high out of the water. maybe we could get a thread with a sticky started to list these

Nasty 12-17-2009 08:46 PM

It would be a good idea to put up gps coordinates along with a description on obstructions that could damage a lower unit throughout the lake.

Jordan Shad is blowing up on this post:p:p:p:p:p

ShadMan 12-17-2009 09:46 PM

There will never be a functional limit for those who don't sign up/sign in. However, those who do sign up get extra perks. Those who help support the site get more perks. But there will be no limits of basic functionality to those who don't sign up, ever, as long as I am an owner here.
