Lanzalad Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Hi all, we have been working on this over the last we days. So we seam to have come to some kind of method on how to set the members groups out. As a NEWBIE they are limited in posting and will only be able to post into the Introduce yourself to the forum Once you have posted and said hello to all the other members your group status will change to "MEMBER" status and this will open up many sections of the forum to you and of which you will be allowed to post into them as a "MEMBER". As a "MEMBER" you will be able to post into the main section of the forum and you will be able to view the ADVANCED section but you will not be able to post until you reach a posts count of 10 then your status will change to ADVANCED. Once you reach Advanced you will be able to post in the open forum and into the advanced section. A levels in Advanced is measured in post counts per 100 as follows: 100 posts and over up to 199 200 posts and over up to 299 300 posts and over up to 399 400 posts and over up to 499 500 posts and over up to 999 1000 posts plus Every member will go up tier by tier as and when they reach the post counts. Once a member reaches 500 plus on there post count they will be considered for the VIP section.. For a member to reach the VIP section this is considered on your content to the forum and your conduct. VIP section All we ask is that you help new members, create new threads and of course continue posting. Now we are going to set a auto demote on this level for members that no longer login of post often on the forum. This means that if a VIP member doesn't post for 30 days or login then they will be hit by the auto demote down to the Advanced level which then will list them into the correct advanced level to there post count.

Krapow Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 It's only demoted but, easy enough to get back in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanzalad Posted November 27, 2018 Author Share Posted November 27, 2018 Remember the members in the VIP section are in there for a reason due to posting history and good content. Most members in VIP will post every day.. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going by his history, he's probably away exploring some remote area where there isn't even reception! Hopefully he'll be back posting about wherever he is soon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep it simple IMO ! A duration (30d, 45d, 60d ?) without post, as mentionned first seems ok to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well as a poster and not a owner maybe like your self i post every day and maybe up to 15 to 30 posts per day. as a VIP member i don't see it as a big ask for a VIP member to have at least 1 post per day.. ok they don't have to post every day but many VIP members post many times in one day.. so i think 30 posts over 60 days is very easy going, maybe too easy.

Lambik Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Well if the number of postings is important, one can always write : "Right" "Agree" or whatever, as a reaction on any post from any member. Won't take long to get the required quantity. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
