Sometimes the obvious answer is the best one.

I don't think we can attract better new members, but instead should concentrate on driving out the undesirable new members. I use the Battle of Stalingrad as a model.

A siege? Sounds intense :eek:

Not sure how to attract "better" members but its an interesting. Perhaps our generation was the "top shelf" generation of the Shroomery :shrug:

Or maybe a new wave of cool Shroomerities are just around the corner....:strokebeard:

People come in waves, some stick, some don't. Just look at the registration dates of most pub conversations, they commonly spread over almost 20 years. A lot of people came and went in the meantime to bring those community people together.

Something that I see commonly though is people start to see shroomery as a home and a family. We talk every day and even if we don't know everyone directly others do. So this familiarity lets people get out of hand to the point they get banned, and unlike real families shroomery excommunication is forever. Some of our most popular members have fallen to this.

It takes a while to get over these sort of losses for the people who are here, for the ones who are just coming in they don't know what the hell is going on...

Doesn't address the topic at hand at all though.  :blah:

Damn, such a good point. Definitely explains a lot! Why so many users get "too comfortable" then get themselves banned for various reasons. Its a sad thing for sure and unavoidable due to the nature of feeling comfortable :eek:

I meant Battle of Stalingrad from the Soviet point of view, i.e. repel the horde of Nazi invaders with extreme prejudice.

We should open up forums for speakers of other languages and maybe use a translate system in the future :strokebeard:

This would be awesome! Even though a lot of the world teaches English now because it has become the language of trade. So young people from a lot of countries would be a lot more inclined to join and stay compared to the older non English speaking generations.

Never been on a website that has an active translation system per poster. That would be dope.

Translation systems at best are funny, at worst hilarious. 

I can think of a million problems, most of them revolve around the site admin being in English. We're just simply not big enough to do this stuff. Besides, the mods sorely control all us rabble in one language now. Can you imagine the crap that would go on if we introduced more. Then we'd need new mods as well for those languages, and new trolls to hate those mods :lol:

Yeah it'd be cool, but I think impractical. Here in probably 10 years, a majority of the world under the age of 40 will speak English. Maybe not the best English, but some English.

I can't imagine too many people joining and staying over the age of 40. We have some older members but even among them, most joined under the age of 40.

So it would be a lot of extra work for a very small group of possible new initiates.

It'd be a pretty substantial job to get that working

The only feasible way really would be to use automated translation from Google, which technically anyone can already do just by enabling translate website to desired language and it will show the whole site translated as you browse

Otherwise, you'd have to develop your own translation system which is the kind of thing that is beyond the scope of shroomery admins

I understand how this would be implemented, what it would take, and the yielding results, and that's why I say its probably not worth the admin's time

i suggest in the future during new member registration, we all do that wiggly finger handshake thing that Pauly Shore does with new members, via artifical limbs that extend from our desktops
