Implementing guest posts
Date: Thu, 02/22/2007 - 09:19
I will like to inform everyone that the guest posts are enabled in all the forums, except Pub. Now, a visitor can directly make a post in all the forums. This is to help large number of visitors in need of financial help. We are giving them the opportunity to discuss their problems with the community before they decide to be a part of this board.
Earlier, few guests were doing personal attacks on the members in the Pub, forcing us to implement "sign up". Now, a guest will be able to post in the Pub, provided it is approved by the mods. The links will be first reviewed in "Pending Guest Posts" before it comes online in the Pub. Let's give some platform to the visitors dealing with financial issues and interact with the community. People who try to menace with intentions to hurt others, we will deal with them accordingly.
Please let me know your suggestions.
Regards
Vikas

I know it was getting nasty for a minute from a few guest posters who were attacking members. In the long run I think it hurt those who were here truly seeking advice. I'm glad to see this.

Vikas I am glad to see this. I know when I first came to this site I was on as a guest for a little while before I joined. And I have stuck around thru thick and thin. We cant punish everybody for a few stupid people. Keep up the good work. KYSIDE38

I think this is a great idea . . . . The guests that have a legitimate reason to be here and want help will be able to get it, and the mean ones won't be able to launch attacks in the Pub. Good call!

Exactly! That's what we have thought and our programming is done keeping your views in concern. This time, we will keep a bad poster within his lines. Our programming will teach good lessons to someone who comes with bad intentions.
We won't let anyone throw his crap. There is always a line of difference between a productive conversation and .. (you know) :)
Thanks Vikas, you always stand as a good support for everyone. I have learnt a lot from you. I will be forever grateful.

I think this will help our board members and guests.Our Mods will have to monitor closely to keep an eye out for posters that want to cause problems.I don't farsee much difficulty with that because we have good Mods here.

Hi Vikas.
I think that's a wonderful idea. Again, it gives guests who are serious about coming out of debt a chance to get familiar with the board before joining. I know myself, when I first came, I just wanted to see what it was about and make sure it was an above board place before I joined. I'm glad the new guests will have that opportunity, as well. I'm glad to hear about screening the guests, too. That will help in a number of ways, mainly to keep things from getting ugly on the boards and also so that what might have gotten posted otherwise won't scare new people away.
Again, Vikas, thanks for working so hard to keep this board what you meant for it to be all a long - a lifeline to people trying to come out of debt. I know it has been for me.

I was always for the guests being able to post in the forums until a few weeks ago when all heck broke loose. It was kind of nice for things to get back to normal for awhile. I understand there are guests with legitimate questions and concerns. I too was a guest here for a little while before I was encouraged to join by other forum members.
