Socalireef improvements
Good idea, polling the members iss always a good place to start when you want to assess the current status and identify areas for improvement.
I would agree with previous responses, the poll would be better if more than one option were available for us . My feelings are much the same as others, this site is good ffor information, cool people, trading/buying/selling. I also like that there is a bit of fun, non-reef related stuff.
I had an idea for the lurkers....creepers....etc. What if the powers that be...the ones who know how to do all that fabulous IT stuff...(like block members....LOL :yield
set the mebership to require that you post at least every 60 or 90 days or so? If not, maybe you get an automatic ssystem generated message prompting activity, and if still no response your membership gets moved to guest mode....If they are not posting, thats all they need anyways. I would alsso ssuggest that it be set up in a way that allows them to rectify the reduction in membership (who knows what is going on, maybe they just havent had time, give them a chance....)
On that note, instead of instantly banning members when a faux paux occurs, what about some communication from the mods? Depending on the situation, of course...but a bit of communication can go a long way, and it also gives the ssite a friendly but professional feel. Sometimes people (ahem....ahem) just need a bit of education regarding boundaries.
:redface:
My thoughts, just sharing, every opinion counts!
This is a great site, I am happy to be part of it. Thanks for all your hard work, and the efforts and time the board members/MOderators contribute.
