Hmm dont know what to think really but heres my bit
Maybe I was a bit quick in slating your website without seeing the rest of it first, but it would have been nice to have seen a website instead of the recruitment page. I dont think your site will get much attention until it is online properly. My aim with my website is to give people something to look at straight away. Thats why I designed the first 4 pages and then added a simple index page and from that I received more and more info. To think that your going to research all the material and then go live is nonsense there is always something else that comes up regarding an aircraft or an ace that you did not already know.
I actually like the format of your site and the webmaster of our newly formed group is writing something similar for us. But we already have a website packed with info and I have my own personal website as well. I would like to see the content of your site online and those links that have nothing in the database yet should be left blank. That way people would come and look at your website and think I would like to be part of that group. But at the moment all people see is a badgering recruitment page with little or no actual information instead of seeing the well designed but half finished website that you already have.
Perhaps if people were able to see the good work you and your team have already done they would want to contribute to the information already on then site or write a new profile for an aircraft or an ace.
If I had more time to myself and was a good reader then I probably would join your group if i came up to scratch but I have two groups to work with at the moment and am a member of a few others that I lead a less active roll in.
I research Aviation in the East of Scotland area and I dont limit myself to one particular type but anything in this area. Also I research and dig aircraft crash sites so my time is in short supply.
But I think we will all have to wait for your site to become active to view your work and perhaps then you might recruit new members with good content.
It seems slightly ironic about you talking about grammar and spelling as the men you research were pretty bad at those things as a whole. If you read any combat report or accident form they are full of mistakes and english errors. Not trying to get at you but just a little humorous point.
Just get some content on the website thats all.
I do agree with the others on some points they have made and I agree more with what Ashley said than I do the rest. She always seems to make more sense than the rest of us.
