Talking Active member System

After reading the Active member page i have this to say...

GREAT IDEA! This is defeanutley gonna keep unwanted people out of the tornaments. You have to be commited to have 100 quality posts. I was just wondering, is there a way for me to see How long i have been a member? i think i am about 3 weeks old but not sure.

Anyway i give your idea 10 out of 10 for effectiveness. It will e impossible for non-active users to get in ( unless someone gives them the password)

yep - the join date of any member is in their member profile
the system will be implemented in about 4-6 weeks time
might not completely get rid of the leechers but will hopefully reduce them and discourage others

How do you know if your posts are quality? Does it tell you anywhere? Does the system not even look at the short posts but just at the lengthy ones?

most posts are quality
not sure if you were a member a few weeks ago in the first freerolls - people were just posting anything so theyre post count up

things like 'yeah i agree' etc - a lot of their replies didnt even make sense with regards to the thread

I like the 100 post rule. Its positives have already been stated, but I think I should state the one negative I have spotted. Now, people who joined the forum just for the freerolls are going to clutter the message boards with meaningless posts. The 100 post rule is good, but someone is going to have to monitor for junk posts.

well those who post junk will not be approved

believe me were on this - for example, one member in particular was banned for posting loads of spam for a freeroll. We forgot to ban his ip address and he has since signed up with an almost identical username and password and has posted close to 100 posts in just a few days. His posts are better but we will be monitoring him closely

if its clear theyve been posting garbage they will not be approved - plus 100 posts doesnt mean youll get approved. A member might get approved at 100, 300 or 500 posts.
