Posting Notice

[nodepositneeded]

Lately I have noticed some "excessive" posting and I would like to address it.

The "chips" system is in place to reward members for their loyalty over time. I did not put the system in place so that members can make posts that aren't really needed just to earn a quick couple of bucks in a very short period of time. I consider this to be abuse of the system and I will start taking action if needed.

The excessive posts hurt this forum in a couple ways. First, it makes it very difficult for me to keep up with everything and increases the chances that I will miss something important. Second, it actually keeps some members from coming to NDN because it's simply just not worth it to read some of the posts that are made.

I've had several members talk to me about this and quite frankly I agree with them.

I ask all members to make sure that they are posting relevant and useful information in the forums. We've actually had a lot less abuse of the system than I expected so I am thankful to everyone for that. However, there are a few instances where it is getting a bit extreme and I would like to see that stop.

I will remove memebers from the "chips" system temporarily or permanently if needed, but I hope it never comes to this!

I have no problem with anyone earning a million chips a day, but please make sure your posts are ones that everyone will enjoy reading!

Thanks for your understanding,
NDN

Only posts I make are for the good of the forum. Don't like administrators threats just do it.

Dude, I say go ahead and post as much as you want mate, no one has told you that you cant, please keep posting as usual, you have NEVER been an issue and I am damn well sure of that man

Post away dabber.

I'd like to point out that I started this thread on behalf of a few other memebers and not just myself.

If we are losing active members because it's too difficult to read through the "junk" posts to get to the good stuff then something has to change!

I have a question about this.

There are some threads where people will post a joke. In the past, I've responded to these threads with something likel "very nice!" to let the poster know that I liked the joke and appreciate it. Should I be using the thanks button instead?

[nodepositneeded]

I would suggest using the "thanks" button wherever possible, but unless you are responding to many threads by only saying thank you then this won't be a problem.
