it seems to me and what I find interesting reading some the frustrations from other posts recently that some are having different difficulties than others, able to access when others cant. As far as the log in goes I saved my log in and password so that it logs in automatically to avoid all what you have described. The big thing for me and I'm willing to bet for others are the ads. Other sites I visit are dotted with ads but aren't popping up all over the place like they do here, I don't have a computer at home so I rely on my shop one to look at the site, I refuse to surf it on my phone as it seems the ads are even worse on it and to be honest if that was my only access I wouldn't consider it. One of the other sites offers a $4.99 no ads access to it, mind you yes there are ads but again not popping up all over the place like on here and aren't as bothersome. I also agree with you Paul that I wouldn't change the set up of it either other than giving Kelly (skiroule) his own forum heading. There are other sites out there and many of them are obviously put out there by the same entity just under different names as other than the name the sites are exactly the same i.e. HCS, Cat chat, Doo Talk etc all the same under different name. Just like John's forecast style there will never be another like it and IMO would be sacrilegious to allow someone else to post weather on this site. Just like his forecasts the set up and feel of this site is all its own, taking that away or changing it would no longer be "John Dee" so I too hope it goes unchanged, Like Paul I don't Bookface nor do I ever have any interest in doing so, nor do I believe we need to be like all the other sites. "John Dee Snow Central" has always been and always should be its own animal as I believe John intended it to be. I also agree with Paul as to the honest, polite and friendly feel this site has (BTW i am not a liberal LOL) if you look at any given time the amount of guests on line way outweighs the amount of members. I don't have the answers as to how to get more to post but I wouldn't change a thing about the site, doing so would take away from Johns vision, after all the site is still called "John Dee" after the man... the legend himself. I for one would like to see the past members who have left for whatever reason return to this site, and encourage more to join the site as a member, if we are going to have ads, tone down the pop up's and see if we can reserve ads to snowmobiling related ads only and maybe some hunting and fishing maybe. I really enjoy the web cam feature and hats off to all who work so hard to keep them running. Those are my 2 cents worth. Like Paul I have been on this site for a long time and hope it will be here to stay as it is, nothing says it cant be a stand alone site as its feel is not replicated by any other.
