Denner (0) Active User Posts: 1,217 Registered: Mar 03, '07 Location: Denmark	Passed/stopped PU activity Please, do not get this wrong.....and I'm ready to be corrected/shamed/scorned by Khan or others.... But how come we still have members on top-lists ect. who is no longer active. For one: Roseman, who's still a numero 3 at "most points". He's not been active/had any inputs since the summer of 2009. Maybe our ol' friend has not checked out? Still? Should there be a time limit of non activity? (And should anyone try to tell me, it's because I've been "downgraded" lately - it's no such thing).

Khan (0) Suspended Posts: 1,737 Registered: Jan 05, '07 Location: USA	Well, this subject has been discussed somewhat in a previous thread Thoughts about the PU points system. ... and a poll question ... Would you like to see the PU points system change so that points expire after 2 years along with reviews? The short version is that you will gain the top spots when you've earned more points than those who now have those spots. Hope that helps.

Drooler (0) Disabled User Posts: 1,831 Registered: Mar 11, '07 Location: USA	Imagine that inactive accounts lose status after, say, 2 years. If that happened, my bet is that within a day of his point loss (as in the "All Star" system Wittyguy describes), Roseman would return and would be less than happy. I get tired of seeing the same names at the top myself, but I figure that's just me, being human. We like to see new things sometimes. That's why the payroll deduction tax extension hullabaloo got so old so fast and why the only interesting thing about the Republican party presidential contender competition is that we get a new up-n-comer every so often, even though every single one of them have said things that disqualify them for basically any kind of respectable leadership position you could name. PU accounts aren't like bank accounts, which can be seized by the state after so much time unused. Think of it: Your PU points will last longer than real money!

Ed2009 (0) Suspended Webmaster Posts: 509 Registered: Sep 12, '09 Location: Wales, UK	I don't see much point to a review which is two years old. I usually do a complete revamp of each of my sites roughly every two years. That usually leads to a completely new interface, new presentation, lots of new features and other changes to improve the experience. A two year old review is likely to inadvertently be very misleading. As long as it's made clear that points/reviews etc older than 2 years won't count, I really can't see anyone complaining. Plus if someone has been inactive for over 2 years then I would imagine it's incredibly unusual that they would return and expect their account to even still exist.

jberryl69 (0) Disabled User Posts: 1,000 Registered: Nov 27, '10 Location: neverland	haha.. must be a personal friend of Khan's ... or his brother. Too funny. You know he's got to be on Khan's twitter list. Though I do have this one question. How can Roseman have 253 points and only 29 posts???? If it ain't grits, it must be a Yankee. If you're going to lay her head over the pool table and fuck her throat, get your fucking hand off her throat!

I just came in, looked at the home page, saw that latest review posted by Roseman, and the hair on the back of my neck nearly stood up. I guess I've been missing my calling ... as a fortune teller. Well, Denner, how 'bout that? I wanted something new, so I left England for New England.

You know he's got to be on Khan's twitter list. Though I do have this one question. How can Roseman have 253 points and only 29 posts???? For the record, Khan doesn't have a twitter list, nor facebook or any of that other "social networking" stuff. I didn't notify roseman in any way. And no, he's not a relative. I suspect he does as any number of other formally active users do ... he follows PU w/out active participation. But that's just a guess. As far as points w/out posts ... PornUsers launched in Jan of 2007. The forum wasn't even opened until March of 2008. So you see, there was a year (and a few months) where users had activity but no forum posts. FWIW, a poll run in June of 2010 showed that less than 40% of those who answered said they were regulars in the forum. See: Do you participate in the PU forum? hmmmm ... might be time to re-run that poll to see if the numbers have changed much.

I know we have lost active members since the forum started. Pat, unless the schedule get bumped, watch for that poll to re-run about the 3rd of next month. Yeah, we have lost some active members since the poll was last run but we've also gained some new ones. I think that's a pretty natural state of things.

Drooler (0) Disabled User Posts: 1,831 Registered: Mar 11, '07 Location: USA	Originally Posted by Wittyguy: Since I started the "Thoughts about the PU points system" thread (where Khan rightfully beat down my ideas like a red headed step child) I figure I'll take another stab at it here. I really don't care about who has the most points or not. I'll never be one of the ones on top nor do I care to (nor do I have the time or porn budget to do so). The question I guess comes down to marketing. Do we go with the current "hall of fame" system where people get acknowledged for life time achievements or do we go with an "all star" system that rewards the best of the current generation / contributors? I suppose the latter might appeal to people who are new to PU in that they can move up the ladder more quickly and get acknowledgment for that. Then again, it's going to take quite a while to make the top 5 list even if the change were made so that by the time you hit the big time in points you're going to be considered an old timer by internet posting standards. For me, I wouldn't mind seeing a requirement that people be required to post a review / comment / reply every six months or year in order to maintain their official point status. That would at least change things up more over time. Then again, it probably wouldn't be anything more than "change for the sake of change" in that it wouldn't really affect my input or most peoples input here. Six of one, half dozen of another. Speaking of activity -- hopefully not "passed" -- is Wittyguy going to do a "PUey" Awards for 2011? The first one, in 2008, was Dec 1st, and they've come a bit later each year, but now I'm starting to worry as this year's has not yet appeared. I've really been looking forward to it. Hope it's on the way ... I wanted something new, so I left England for New England.

Happy holidays. I must say it looks weird to me, as I managed to spend part of my life during a time when the only handheld device a person might be carrying was a cigarette lighter. I suppose that the Walkman was the first step into technonarcissim, and now it seems that the slippery slope was made of Teflon. Anyway, thank goodness for PornUsers!
