What should non members be able to see on here?
 

Ok, so you guys are all paid members on the forum.

What do you think people who are registered on the forum but have not/will not pay should be able to view?

Currently it's set to the "Non Members" section only. They can read and post in there.

Everything else is set to "Private".

Do you think it should stay like that or should they be allowed to view anything else?

Let's have the opinions of our members...............?

Perhaps let them see the s12 discussion part, and if its possible see the classifieds but not able to post? Just to give them a snap shot of what the site is.

classifieds, s12 discussion, newbies, website info & feedback, and non-s12 related should be free to view and post IMO :) everything else keep members :)

let non members see the projects section as we need to keep interest in s12's going if only to keep the value of our cars up.I don't see why they should be able to see the s12 discussion section as it's for us to help each other out.If they want help then they can join.

tits

I agree. lol.

View & post in Non Members, view in For Sale & Projects, but not the S12 discussion pages. There is alot of good info in there for sorting problems out, so a good 'selling point' for the club/forum, and thus brings more S12 owners together :).

From personal experience, I can glean all the technical info I need off the MX5 owners forum without having to member and have the ability to post on their forum :D I should think I'll join them at some point though :rolleyes:.

Most of the other sites I`ve seen, allow non-members to access the General chat areas and classifieds, but not the main "technical sections". Also they are not allowed to post replies. Seems to work okay for the other sites ;).

The Opel Manta site had a techie section for non-members so as not to come across as up-tight. And to help people considering buying into that perticular car too.

theres enough tits on here and not the mamory type lol.
