Another way to frame this question is to ask, what would make you like this place more and keep you coming back?
The playful wit and edgy banter is fun, but its a fine line. If I owned this forum, I wouldn't want to shut it down, and all the players are enough to make the user experience something great, as long as they know there is a circus trainer standing by with a whip, who is not afraid to use it.

More posters. Preferably genuine individuals, by which I mean not a gaggle of socks. I have mellowed my position against socks and can see why they may be necessary at times, but they need to be a healthy minority of posters, or very good so as to be almost undetectable.
A good chase the crim. thread once every 8 months or so.
Engagement of more than the usual handful of posters on threads. I know I am boring. I shouldn't be a dominant poster.
Even when decent topics are begun, there aren't enough people engaging on the threads to make it interesting.
I liked when threads went off on a tangent, rather than having to be modded into staying on topic. I believe the drive to stop straying off topic led to a decline in posting. Sure, it's annoying if a thread is derailed by the same two or three members squabbling with each other, but genuine divergence on a thread was like finally picking up the boring book on a shelf (or series on Netflix) after a topic got to 20 pages, only to find it consisted of three posts on the right consistency for road surfacing before becoming an hilarious comedy or intriguing history lesson.
I do not like threads being modded as though herding cattle (or cats)
I am a cynical dreamer, kinard.... Best of both worlds.

Why you say things like I'm stalking Violet, I have no idea. Last month you wrote that I raped a girl in NZ. You quickly deleted that. Question remains, why do you say such seriously defaming things?

I don't think modding is for keeping a thread on topic, (but if an OP wants to ask people to stay focused on their thread, they have that right) I think modding should be there to ensure that people are not crossing the line to becoming abusive or cruel.violet wrote:RickyBobby wrote:Another way to frame this question is to ask, what would make you like this place more and keep you coming back?

I went to quote the post and it was gone. You used the words; rape, young girl, car park, Kina Rd surf break and that I was young at the time 1972, but so was she.Jep wrote:no, I said you had sex with a a bat asleep upsidedown in a tree, get it right, i'll correct you all night, I don't wanna fight..dont mess with me..violet wrote:I missed that (rape).

Don't bother yourself correcting me, I know what I read.
Laud John described you perfectly when calling you a piece of shit.

How to get more unique posters?
I have mellowed my position against socks and can see why they may be necessary at times, but they need to be a healthy minority of posters, or very good so as to be almost undetectable.
(Why do people use socks? Sport? Trolling? To escape personal attacks? Its inevitable anyhow and should be expected. I don't care)

Circumstantial. When those events unfold, we spring to action and do what we do well.
Engagement of more than the usual handful of posters on threads. Even when decent topics are begun, there aren't enough people engaging on the threads to make it interesting.
Again, how to get more engagement? More posters?
I know I am boring. I shouldn't be a dominant poster.
One shouldn't have to feel self conscious for their willingness to participate, (and no you're not boring). Other posters that discourage them is what I mean about proper modding. That's just shitty behavior.
I liked when threads went off on a tangent, rather than having to be modded into staying on topic. I believe the drive to stop straying off topic led to a decline in posting. Who did that? Sure, it's annoying if a thread is derailed by the same two or three members squabbling with each other, Modding can fix that but genuine divergence on a thread was like finally picking up the boring book on a shelf (or series on Netflix) after a topic got to 20 pages, only to find it consisted of three posts on the right consistency for road surfacing before becoming an hilarious comedy or intriguing history lesson.

I agree, there's no need to control the narrative.

Re. Ricky Bobby's questions about how to get more posters engaging on here. I genuinely have no clue. Other than what I already wrote about having the right content (articles, interviews, etc).
I'm certainly not calling for a jailed barang to be released (under the pretence of an escape) from prison once a year so we can collectively come together on the forum to track her or him down

I wouldn't know, its not my thing, but good enough proof for me that you resemble the people you hang with (so choose carefully)

Yeh, everyone likes to catch the creep, God knows there's enough of them, but we don't need to be paranoid either or create scandals just to stay in business. I think there's a few NGO's that do that pretty well already.
