As of late, I have been getting forum errors stating too many people viewing the site. This is from non-members (lurkers) just viewing the coin roll hunting forum. The site's advertising revenue all are deal with metal detecting, so I see absolutely no harm in closing the Coin Roll Hunting forum to the public. I'd consider upgrading to a charter member if such a move as making the Coin Roll Hunting forum of this site a private section, accessible by members only.

Reasons to make the Coin Roll Hunting section member's only:

*Quicker speeds to the site
*Increased amount of views in other sections relevant to the sponsors/ads on this site
*Most coin roll hunters would agree
*Less down time from the staggering 150 viewers at times.
*More members and less lurkers
*People would be forced to upgrade to use the search function instead of google
*People less afraid to post their finds
*More relevant posts geared toward helping MEMBERS.

*No negatives reasons toward doing this either!

Some seem to forget this forum is owned by TresureNet, it is not a private forum for members only....

I have forwarded the request to admins, but don't hold your breath...

How about a $100 a year per member to make it private......:laughing7:

by unknown amount of :headbang: members who like to share info


My suggestion Start your own forum but don't tell anyone

Then you can talk to yourself
& post your finds with out worrying anyone will see them
