Re: Oggsbog and others. A quick query. Given that you are not able to even view the other forums here without being 'approved' then is that not a slight flaw.
There seem to be three or four people at one time on this part of these forums (bronze) so is it realistic to expect people to spend significant time on here producing 'quality posts' when there is unlikely to be significant response and people are not aware of the content of the forums that they are supposed to be aspring to? (Although, given some of the names on there I am sure there are more than a few interesting threeads on there)
That's not a criticism as such, as I am sure, given that it has been around a while, this system works well enough. It's more of a query or question as to whether it is the best way to attract 'quality' when surely many are going to look in but be put off by the fact that what I assume are the interesting parts of the forum are a closed shop that would take a fair amount of time to even view and make a judgement on.
Actually, given some of the stuff on Betfair, that is probably a good idea and I've answered my own question. Just wondered though.
