Hi Paul,

Is it possible to 'slow down' the site a little when there is little new content? So that topics and requests stay a little longer on the forum page before they dissapear into the 'archive'.

A 'filled' forum page is much more inviting, both for participating in a thread, but also to post something yourself.

I also experienced myself that sometimes postings take some more time to get reacted to, or get only interesting at a later point due to the 'conversation' that results from the original posting.

I must admit that even some times I've asked a friend to 'save' an initial 'dead topic' by posting a general answer, only to see it devellop after that in a long thread!

I understand that when it is busy a short 'turn around time' is necesary, but when there is a lul it makes for a rather empty forum page.

But perhaps this is a very dumb question, for I have no idea what the inner workings of a website are?

Cheers,
Alex
