I’d also be okay with loosing some extensions/styles, just not milk lol I love that one!

It would be around $500/month just for the server that we need and that doesn’t included the extra security, SSL, etc etc that we have. Plus the time I would need to invest or hire someone who knows what they’re doing to run it.

What about doing some stuff from each catagory
Remove all posts from may 2018 to october 2019
Cut down the styles to 2 or 3 but keep the extensions.
Do a poll on the styles
.
Get rid of the accounts that havent posted in 6 months.
Would doing the above help?

Yeah and I was planning on cutting members who have never posted either way because there’s no point in keeping them.
So to all the lurkers, make a post or you’re account is gone lol.

Agree
Deleting the sn's from 2018 that havent posted since then cancels 15 accounts, and thats just from the first page alone.12skipafew wrote: ↑Thu Apr 09, 2020 11:57 am Yeah and I was planning on cutting members who have never posted either way because there’s no point in keeping them.

Please keep the extensions, memes and gifs are fun
Please keep the absolution, milk and prosilver styles. I like to switch back and forth
eta: from page 1 to 5, eliminating sn's that havent posted since 2018 deletes between 13-16 accounts on each page

I would get rid of some of the sub-forums that are no longer used. It makes the site look more empty, imo.
If I were to organize it:
1) Announcements & Site Help Forum
2) Mom Confessions Forum
3) New & Politics Forum, with 4) sub forum for memes (which can be purged every so often)
General Mom Talk Forum with sub forums 5) Mom Support & Advice, 6) Venting Corner, 7) Lifestyle (food, recipes, hobbies, etc.)
8) Fight Corner Forum
9) Religion & Spirituality Forum
So only 9 total.
Then Member run forum
And if anybody misses any of the other subforums -- they can petition to have a member run site, with the rules, they agree going to post weekly, so it doesn't look so abandoned & forlorn, lol.
I only use one style, milk, so styles don't really matter to me.
That's my recommendation.
