bullet Topic: What is a Participating Member?
    Posted: September/15/2008 at 12:02pm

For right now, I'm posing this as a question to all of you. What do you view as a Participating Member to the community? The "you must have 1 mod posted" to view certain areas of the site was a good start in keeping the community clean and pure of the site's original intent. But I'm seeing a lot of people uploading a photo (most of which are not of them) just so they can view boobies and penises...lame.

So, I was thinking about changing up the lingo / requirements from 1 mod post to , "You must be a Participating Member". I don't want to make it something difficult, just the bare minimum that would constitute the person as someone that's truly involved in the community, and just enough work to a lame-o wouldn't want to / or be able to do it.

Ideas I'm tossing around in my mind are something like this:

1 mod posting
5 mod comments
5 forum posts
profile photo
about me filled in

To me, that's a lot of work for someone just to view some breasts, but nothing for someone that's active around here. But... if it isn't enough, there we're gunna have bogus mod comments, forum posts, and mod photos. Which I really don't want.

So what are your thoughts?

.: Adam

ps. I've made a few fixes around the site, and I also changed up the "view full size mod" lightbox animation thingie. It's cooler, cleaner, more functional, and clears up the "flash is always on top" problem. I also have been listening to the various forum posts and email about little things to clean up around here... just really busy right now on the personal part of life. Sorry guys, but I will get too it eventually =)

i think it is a good idea to test out and see how those creepy users react to it. as an idea it would work and of course putting it into play will let us see how they try to get around it, too, which would let us come up with new ideas as well.

i think if you want to be involved in the site you should have most of those things covered, so i don't think it would be a hard goal to reach.

1 mod posting, 5 mod comments, 10  forum posts [and if there's a way to get around the possible cheating i.e. posting all 10 of them in the forum games?],  profile pic, about me, and maybe even a minimum of a couple of buddies?

i know, it'd make life impossible for pervs. for active members, not that much really!

the new fullsized mod thingy is cool cheers!

I agree with metalbabe with the not letting them "cheat" by posting in forum games.
 
everything else I'm thinking about it is way too complicated and would just put more of a burden on you... so those ideas are out the window lol

Oh... you're having cool ideas coming from my head, Adam !!!

 
Let's add to your requirements...
3 friends,
3 days of presence online (three days being registered so those who come to lurk will quite certainly never come back after three days).
 
... should be ok with what you said and that.

maybe adding in profile comments too?

i liked how in the old profiles it had a list of whose journals you commented and what forums you posted in.
maybe something similar in terms of what mod you commented on?

that way, it might be easier to spot the ones who are pervs when you go on their page and see mod comments on nipple or genital mods.

i did always like that feature.. and it would be quite nice to use it to see what my buddies have commented on, in case maybe it's something i might like, too.
well i might have somethin' to say about that, space man!

Thats a great Idea I think having a profile pic(I have suggested B4) but also have a about me filled out. Atleast 1 mod pic. thats all a must, Im not sure bout the forum and mod posts. I post regularly so it wouldnt effect me at al but for the 1st time person comming to the site having to post 10 posts to look at pics would be a pain. I would suggest a weekly limit 5 and 5 if you dont post them you lose access to untill you post them.
