    I would suggest a clock, and a support team.

    The clock is just a nice touch to any board, and the support team is another vital part to many fourums, it works well on IF Skin zone, IF Styles, it did work well on IF Tuyorial zone (untill it closed) and it works well on IF Support Fourums.

    1: A clock is kind of pointless, and it slows down forums. ;)

    2: We are not a support forum. (exept Forum Help, but that is for things only for this forum)

    That's my opinion. :)

    1: A clock slows down the fourums no more than anything else, yes it has to load, but so does alot of other stuff on this board.

    2: You dont need to be a support board to house sufficient support staff, most of the time even if you are not a support board there is some kin of remote support fourum, and in this fourm users often give out unfair, and unjust information pertaining to the help wanted by a user, thats why in most cases a support team is added, as a "check and balance" for the user "support vollunteers". The current generation of internet users, (mostly teenagers from 13-15 or 16) is often overly confident about the information they may hold, and may not want to fully reaserch information further, or want to think another way, when they already think one way, thats why we have support teams of people who dont do those things.

    You, my friend, are wrong. I read all topics posted here, and If the question isn't already answered correctly I will answer thier question.

    And what would be the point of the clock? If you have Windows(which 95% of people do) you can just look in the bottom-right corner for the time,

    I meant to say in most fourums not remaining specific to just this fourum, but i made a human mistake, only proving that i am human.

    And actually more people are going away from the Windows way of life, and migrating elsewhere, but the windows clock does not display the seconds, and for those Windows XP users there is an option to hid the start up bar when not active, thus hiding the clock, unless you mouse wanders down there.

    I just saw a poll on a computer website, and 95% of people have Windows.

    The poll is in a way one sided, one only the people who voted actually count to the poll, and so many people may not of voted, and thier voice may not of been heard. There are other things too.

    And yes you can move your mouse to the bottom of the screen, but i can be good to step outside of the box, and try new things everyone in a while...

    But you win, i will subside :)

    Clock? Hint: Theres one in the corner of your computer window. ;)

    And why do you need a support team when there are many mods and no direct support forums exept this one?

    Hint: Did you read any onf my previous posts, i dont have a clock in the bottom of my screen, i have to move my mouse down there, and users that use Linux dont ethier.

    And support team is to spread the workload of the fourums of of the MODs, MODs are to Moderate, support Team is to Support Members and help them, the MOds will not always have time for that.

    Hint: Stop hinting.

    But, A clock seems like a pointless addition to me, I mean, if you need one so badly, why not just buy one and place it on your computer table? You could use the space for something that would be influential to the forum, like a chat box or news scroller.

    And there are only two pages of support questions, thats why It seems like a pointless thing to me.

    Ok, only two pages os support pages, that ok, but in about two months this Board has gone from 5,000+ posts to 30,000+ posts... in two months, if it grows at that rate it will evantually have a need for a suppoer team, or the MODs will be over worked.
