    This forums activity fluctuates a lot, so I was wondering. How can we improve your experience? What do you like or dislike about the forum?

    i love the member base and how we all know each other, yet the forum and still growing and we are getting new bad asses everyday. but still the forum seems a tad "unactive" to me. it seems sometimes no one post anything accept in the marketplace for hours. this isn't something we can just change but it will change when we grow.

    I see the forum issue being due to gearbox, not enough content to keep members active. I don't know the correct count but I know its a low number pertaining to the number of threads started because of the latest dlc content. Plain and simple just not enough of the game to keep the traffic.

    Good point, I wonder if there is anything we can do to bypass that and still get more hits on here. Now we just have to figure out how to get people to actually post when they get on. Any Suggestions?

    Making the marketplace viewable after a certain amount of post. I get random people that ask for stuff by just viewing our shop as guest.

    Funny I haven't been on borderlands because half of the time I cant get the disc to read. This 360s is already falling apart.

    I have the same problem. I think all shop owners should remove their gamertags from their signatures. Also maybe implement a new shop system.

    maybe give the owners the ability to only let certain people view the shop. like only let members look at it not junior members and so on.

    I think just making a small post count to view marketplace would at least get some activity. It would give it a chance for them to stick around and also view other parts of the forum.

    Junior Member, Member and Senior Member aren't actual ranks, just titles.

    I don't want people to feel forced to post just to use a shop. Wanna try setting the marketplace to require an account to view?

    The marketplace now requires you to be logged in to view. This should help with the friend request spam.
