    You only see ads if you're a guest though

    Yes, but for those that just kind of want it, they'll just walk away. If they get what they came for, they'll snoop around and see what else they can get, and then BAM! gotta register... and they probably will. Remember, these guys are just stumblers, if they can't get it instantly they'll just wander off stumbling elsewhere. I know, I'm a vet stumbler and do the same thing We want them to stay

    Either way the decision is for the higher ups anyways, debating here won't accomplish anything

    Also, we got someone to register

    That's the whole idea, we're trying to get them to become a 0 post user and maybe turn into a 1 post user! If you can't get them to register to begin with, you lose!

    You know we had a 0 post user download 6 gigs yesterday, been here since 05. :O

    Thing is, if I can bypass MU and RS by resetting my router, so can they. Then, there's the fact that if they just want 1-2 OSTs, they won't have to register.

    Best part is that I'm the one who decides whether or not he contributes to the list.

    Well we could be really evil and set a 50MB cap so they can only get one part Of course that'd just drive them away to. I really don't see the difference between a 0 poster and guest, other than a 0 poster just takes up space.

    You're silly.

    It's not that I actually disagree with you, but we're both aiming to turn a guest into a 0 post user, which will hopefully start to post.

    You said those ads only get viewed by guests and that 0 posters only take up space.

    Make it available to guests all the way, then.

    shush you!

    btw, only DSL and dial-up users can bypass the limit by resetting their router, and really, it'd be easier to register
