Default Freedom from Fear

Why is it that people are now afraid to post or start a new thread (that's the way I feel)? It's like if you do, people are going to acuse you of trying to get points. Either we need a new point system or we need more people. If we switch to new point system, maybe it could be a point system that awards 100 points once a day for when you log in and after a certain amount of time, say 40-50 days, the rate increases. It would increase a little every 40-50 days after that. And of course if you refer people you get a lot of points. And if you included a detailed tutorial on how to work the eStore and all it's aspects. That would work too.

The reason why we need more people is because you only have a certain amount of active users and it seems that it never gets bigger so everybody has already expressed everything in there minds and now everybody acts like they have hemorrhoids about people posting threads because they think their trying to get more points.

If maybe the new point system were revised more that would be great. It would probably reduce the amount of insults and "chaos".

Everything point system wise is going fine except for a litte chatter about footbals's useless psots. but that is being taken care of and he is making better posts now.

i totaly agree with you person89 i had about 325 post when the point system came out from making so man y tuts and reviews andonly went up about 100 post and people now think i post pointless post because i have made these tuts and tutorials i have a high post count. Maybe the admin can make it so we only get points when we make a thread or view a thread or we can make it so only certain subforums can give you points when you post or make a thread. maybe we can make it so thaat are post count is private, but that would kinda make it hard to figure out if the memebr is trust worthy or not

some of the posts I didn't agree with. like that member dude, just ignore him and people like him, especially when on a forum, cuz you beat them up to make them shut up (unless you know them and where they live). just be concise and to the point. and you don't have to edit your posts all the time like some people suggest. you can post an extra post or two (but only when someone has a question). just don't do five in a row.

as of right now we are still a small forum. When a member has 400+ posts when there are maybe 30-40 threads to post in, someone is post whoring.
