Dear all,
I strongly agree with our Admin. If we want to have this forum a worthwhile one, we have to be active. And as both Admin and Moderators have said over time, you do not have to be a software developer or do reverse engineering or so to be an active member.
Examples? You pick one: read/study a book or an article and post your PROFESSIONAL and USEFUL comments, share you experience with the use of the (trial) software you are testing, problems/experiences with the application of a specific software to a specific real-life problem... You can share a lot to the professional comunity.
It must be a pain in the a** to be the Admin for a site like this and read 1000 posts that say something like: "can you explain to me how to apply a keygen?", "I need crack for Perform 3D"... It is my understanding that this site is the evolution of the old 4download.veb.ir, and if you have been following all this since even that site, there was a very funny comment at the end of a chain of stupid requests:
"I need Etabs 9.5"
"I need Primavera"
"I need perform 3D"
"I need RISA"
and then the funny comment came:
"I need a million dollar !!!"
Maybe this post is not gonna be loved by the 10'000 users that are not active and just enter this forum looking for something for free and give nothing in exchange. But I am with the Admin: delete all inactive users and If this site have to have 10 users, let it be that way...
