Default Forum housekeeping

Done a few housekeeping changes to the forum, the upcoming events now groups them by event (rather than showing for example the International Symposium multiple times). Also, birthdays only shows those members who have been in the forum within the last 12 months. This will stop it dragging up birthdays from many years ago (they still show on the Calendar, though).

I'm also thinking of doing a purge and removing all forum members who have never posted, and who have not been active (not logged in) within the last year. This will remove 157 dormant members. If anyone has any good reason why that's a bad idea, let me know.

Showing all members = better prospects of sponsors?

You could try to email the "157 dormant members" Pete and tell them of your future plans for a free site, that is if you have nothing else better to do, like learning Chinese...

Well I have emailed the 157 dormant members that picture of you outside in your birthday suit Jeff, and the picture of Karl in his mankini, with the subject line "Look what you have been missing". We'll see what happens!!

Ahh yes, they were classics, we need more photos of members in that style, maybe we could do a calendar shoot as a publicity stunt for the soon to be free UKFR.

I'm afraid I've gone to seed a bit since I modelled for that Must get back down the gym and dig out the waxing kit again!
