I'd have to agree with sjay on this one.
I rather liked the idea of the privacy aspect of this forum. If people are really interested in remaining a part of this forum, they'd sign up from the start. Suffice it to say, it might urge them to register if they had a peek-preview first, hence the public viewing.
I did refer 7 people (as it states in my profile), where are they now? They registered and disappeared, so what difference does it make?
I think the way to attract new members would be to make the site attractive. By this, I mean...have a weekly low buy-in tourney, or contest type tourney (where you have to come into this forum, *maybe to have a chance at guessing the answer to a question or something*, to be able to be a part of the tourney), freeroll, etc.
Trust me, if they are really interested, they will take the time to register.
As for me, I will be removing a few of my attachments/pics, when I return on Monday.
