Poll: Members' Rides Forum * tsikot.com

[blink21me]

Cons:
1. this will duplicate the 'intents and purposes' of our gallery system where members have already uploaded most of their rides' pics. thopugh our gallery system has a commenting system, i understand that a forum thread is definitely different (an a lot better) than a gallery image thread in terms of exposure, activity and traffic)
2. since we cannot always filter out pasaway newbies (even members) as soon as they come, this can be a new battleground for flaming/flame-baiting, personal wars/battles, etc. A more vigilant moderator group should oversee this forum.[/quote]1. They can re-post the pics, and I'm sure they won't mind, and also, I don't think there are as much people who look at the galleries as there are in the forums... They'd get more replies and comments not, just 3 or 4 per set of pics...

2. When it comes to this, the appropriate rules can be established that no hard flaming and disrespecting can be allowed, those who violate should be warned and if warned numerous times whould either get suspended or banned (which will not likely to happen, so far I haven't noticed much immature members). I have seen this done, Team-Integra.Net does a very well job at this (one of the factors that set that certain site from any other). It would all come down to discipline, and unexpectedly, respect is being developed at the same time...[/quote]

I am aware that every each of us have our own opinions and can give a lot of negative comments. There are ways to express ourselves... If we don't like what we see, it's not that hard to just keep it to ourselves and simply say, "it's not my bag", "not my cup of tea", "I'm not feeling it, but whatever floats your boat", "you could always do what you like", etc... OR, just leave and not say anything... How hard is that?

anyway, the tsikot staff will appreciate your votes and your comments and suggestions. we would like to thank blink21me for the suggestion. We have started a poll and his thread has been merged here.

Of course, this will still be pending upon the approval of the whole tsikot.com admin and moderating staff.

Thank you.
