Sure, but then we still might start attracting all those people with other interests. Ultimately, too much traffic will start to slow down the site.

Paul - if it's possible, I think Nikita's suggestion is good - allow the non-Diptera posts, but don't show them on the home page.

jorgemotalmeida 17 April 2007 19:32:18

it must be easy to find someone that CAN create a forum for hymenoptera.info!!! and this forum could provide a link to there and vice-versa! why not?? someone?? I like the format of this diptera.info.

jorgemotalmeida 17 April 2007 19:29:03

i agree with Kahis. you could create a new hymenoptera.info the german site has no forum.

Zero

One, I think

4. The code to limit the numer of non-Diptera posts can be implemented tomorrow. How many should be allowed in the timespan of 24 hours?

Paul Beuk 17 April 2007 18:59:34

3. Just re-re-re-updated the image validation code. Please try again and report back if it fails.

2. Bugguide is nice, but has geographical restrictions.

Paul Beuk 17 April 2007 18:58:17

1. I'd like to reatin the option for non-Diptera, becasue they mey be Diptera-linked in some way.

Dmitry Gavryushin 17 April 2007 18:53:01

I'm afraid some problems with uploading images still persist - or 600 pixel width restriction's already active?...

crex 17 April 2007 18:11:18

IMHO, drop the non-diptera stuff. It'll find it's way to other sites. Link to useful forums for the other families.

Nikita Vikhrev 17 April 2007 17:45:49

Another ("soft" way: non-dipt go to non-dipt forum without appearance at home page

Kahis 17 April 2007 17:14:03

IMO: remove the non-diptera section. For other insects, start a new forum or take over BugGuide

conopid 17 April 2007 14:50:06

Paul, I agree, you should limit the non diptera posts or even consider removing the non diptera forum altogether. These non-diptera posts are now interfering with the efficient viewing of more legiti

LoL

Dmitry Gavryushin 16 April 2007 08:08:00

Ugh, they're sort of disappeared...

Paul Beuk 16 April 2007 07:56:49

Hehe, like searching for a needle in a haystack. Give the thread numbers and I will accommodate you.

Dmitry Gavryushin 15 April 2007 19:36:12

Paul could you please remove empty threads - some glitch, 'Attachment file type not allowed' warning
