i'm open to suggestions on the default number of posts and topics per page (currently 25), and also the number of recent posts at the bottom (currently 15)

Roadkill:
As mentioned before, I think it'd be a good time to delete anyone who's been inactive for, say, 3 years+ and anyone signed up and has never posted (who looks like a spammer).

I also think anyone who's not been active recently (within 3 years) should be sent an email in a few weeks reminding them that the forum has been re-worked and invite them to join . . . . If they don't after this, I suggest deleting them, too.

Sounds harsh, but we've got a lot of deadwood.

Roadkill:
Also, what's your plan for the original home page ?  :chiny:

Anyone that looks like a spammer has been removed already, if they are from Ukraine, russia etc it's normally fairly easy to tell and trash their account.

In terms of the non active users, yeah could do, not sure what benefit we'd get though....doesn't hurt keeping old / inactive accounts - could be fun as we'd need to either remove their posts or have posts not associated to a person thereby when looking at old topics you'd have replies but no way of telling who replied....

More than happy to re-send an email in a month or so trying to get people to come back?

Basically a very simplified, cut down version of what's there at the moment (using the same design possibly) - only having a few pages:
