Title: Old Thread Banners Poll
Post by: deuem on November 24, 2013, 08:52:24 AM
I would like to see a show of votes about the message we get when posting on an old thread. I think many newbies will not pass that banner and proceed. They find a thread of interest and then a big red stop sign hits them. We all know we can go through it but do they? Or do they just back out and forget it like I did the first few times.

This forum chases so many ideas that even I can't get back to my own threads with out hitting the stop sign all the time. And then if we start a new topic on an old subject we hear, "Don't you guys ever read what we have already" I do see that all the time. Is that 120 day stopping newbies?

Peggy is in the process of expanding and road blocks are in the way for newbies.

What do you think, please vote..   Deuem

The banner does make me falter for a second, but apart from that I proceed.

I have a funny feeling all the non-discussion on rocks is more off putting..

Hmm...

Certainly it's a bit off-putting, i was surprised when i saw one, on one of my own threads LOL

So what exactly is the text in the banner, i forgot ::)

Maybe it should read;

"Attention, this thread has not been posted in for some time, the original poster may no longer be a member, nor even be still alive, so don't count on a reply to your post anytime soon."

Besides, i never let a banner stop me, seen enough of them at ATS :P

'non discussion on rocks' LMAO ;D

I'm not interested in the Rock of Ages, but more the ages of rocks, and the 'age of rock', like Queen :D

Not sure what to vote right now, i think either change it to 1 year, or change the text, or both.......

I would like to have top twenty thread list.something like glp and lop have.it may be too much trouble though.
I like what deuem said about being gone or dead.funny stuff.
Title: Re: Old Thread Banners Poll
Post by: deuem on November 24, 2013, 01:22:54 PM
Oh, this question was not ment to ask the members who post right by it. It was ment to change how the newbies see us and it they will post by or exit. Even I did an exit the first 2 or 3 times.

I am not seeing a lot of newbies post and wondering why. Are we too tough, Too soft or what. The site has opened up a lot but they still are not posting. If this is just one road block, i think we should ask Ron to smooth it out.

That simple.

Should it be non-disclosure of rocks. Hey, its a slow week,

How about rock, paper scissors. they use that as a drinking game here. I'm a master and they thought it was a Chinese game. lol

Deuem

Sinny is the offical scorekeeper of silly threads.... New Poll?

not being a newbie, I don't see what the big deal is...I log in to a lot of websites but don't necessarly post anything unless i find something that interests me...maybe that's the reason all these newbies don't post....nothing interesting as in...

'ASTOUNDING BIGFOOT VIDEOS HERE'......'AMAZING UFO KIDNAPPED MY PUPPIES'......'OBAMA IS GAY, ALL THE EVIDENCE HERE'.....

For some people, reading through 10-20 pages of chit-chat and a page or two of the information that they might be looking for may not make them a top 20 thread just more active at the time. I like the idea of having your main threads and a discussion thread to seperate the wheat from the chaff.
Title: Re: Old Thread Banners Poll
Post by: robomont on November 24, 2013, 03:15:13 PM
Things i would like to see changed.members list culled of everybody who hasnt posted in two months.if your too lazy to post then your too lazy to research.if your too lazy to help with research then i dont think your wanted by the other members.

That being said .i think most kids are distracted by video games.where has everybody gone.if your a member with problems.please update us.we give of our time to this group.give us the respect you would a friend or family member.dont just drop off the world.
I know folks are just trying to survive but look at whats happened over the last five years with conspiracy forums.they are shrinking fast.is everybody getting alzeimers or what.with all the unemployment.there should be piles of bord people with nothing to do.where are they going?we need to survey and find out.maybe a mass email to all the members who have disappeared.did we piss them off or what.
On another note.i really like our new members.we need more like them.
Maybe we need a new format of real news.im so sick of all the slanted propaganda and lies.its hard to even turn on the telly.so much bs.i wish i could buy a shitty channel like food tv and turn it into a 24 hour real news channel.start our own ap wire of members.feeding real news.maybe have a prime time cop haten hour.where all we show is the latest abuses and highlite the cities and interview the mayors and chiefs of police.
Just some rantings and thoughts.
Title: Re: Old Thread Banners Poll
Post by: robomont on November 24, 2013, 03:27:11 PM
El has an idea but i dont know how it would be formatted.maybe chat should take priority and a link at bottom of thread for hard core science and updates.i know it kinda goes against the idea of this forum but new info is getting harder to find.the noose of knowledge is being tightened alot lately.even high quality shows like nat geo and nova are slacking.the history channel is a joke now.so is discovery.

I also think we need a shill appendix.where a person could type in a name and easily find out if the person is a pos.we could have members name and his critic of shill.and evidence to back it up.maybe have a scale of sorts.one star maybe shill.ten stars highly probable.

Thats what im talking about.great idea el.

We should have members at least from every english speaking country.why are there no canucks on here.i dont see them being represented on any conspiracy sites.

Maybe folks are too self centered.i dont know.especially the younger generation?
Title: Re: Old Thread Banners Poll

Another thing.. What's the average age of current active members?
Title: Re: Old Thread Banners Poll
Post by: robomont on November 24, 2013, 05:26:04 PM
I think its a double hump.im 46.i think pwm is 49. a couple things i find frustrating is if i get off the site and back on the page is where i left it rather than automatically updating with all the new post.plus i think the clock is off.i thought i had mine set to central but its showing mountain.i just got whacked upside the forhead by a four inch green tree so my judgement may be off for a few years.slit and bloody oh yea.

Ouch!  I hope You're ok there, robo!

As for the notice...  I voted for a year, but really...  Does it matter WHEN a thread was last posted in?

And about the "shill" points.  Not sure I favor that, as, like gold, there are many things that might prompt a "donation."  Plus, it discourages People who are NOT shills, but someOne else smacked Them with a shill tag, and so They are more likely to say, "Forget this!  I'm going to ATS!"

My thoughts.
Title: Re: Old Thread Banners Poll
Post by: deuem on November 24, 2013, 06:11:50 PM
So Sarge, I would think the average age is over 40 if not maybe over 45. Heck, my kid does not even know how to type. Everything with young people is either a joystick or mouse. Most of them don't even have an idea what email is. I face this all the time here.The phone does all the work. With the exception of a few like Robo, who wants to type on a phone. So many of the newbies might just be doing the Robo deal and just reading.

Any newbies want to chime in with a simple yes or no.  Yes Phone, No computer.

Are we phone frendly?  Robo? My screen is wider than my keyboard. I don't know what I would do with a 6 inch screen. Most likely just read. On Monday I will ask my kid to fire up th Android and see if I can ge in on the Wifi to take a peek.

On my wifes phone all they do now is post voice messages to each other or groups. They don't even bother to call each other anymore. And what is real funny is that they will go back and forth with this live. I can see leaving a note. But live voice posts are funny to listen to. But they can listen to what they said first and do it over. That you can't do live.

IF you plan to say "It's only a  rock"

A) you must have documents to back up your assumption showing how you came to that conclusion, type of rock etc
B) you must show proof of your expertise in rocks

I am not seeing a lot of newbies post and wondering why. Are we too tough, Too soft or what. The site has opened up a lot but they still are not posting. If this is just one road block, i think we should ask Ron to smooth it out.

Couple things come to mind

1) Our good stuff is not in the public eye... because we wanted to keep the BS and idle chit chat out of those threads. On the flip side, not as many members as expected are adding to the good stuff and many of the contributing staff have left... Exuberant1, Russo, Dood... to name a few.  These people were thread makers

2) The recent post list tends yo get dominated by gloom and doom porn. I still need to figure out how to make a subscribed thread list

3) Back at ATS in John's mega moon anomaly thread there were literally hundreds of THOUSANDS of viewers. But if you add up the posters  I would say maybe 30ish regulars and a few occasional pop ins

MOST people will read. Since ATS had a rule against "Oh my god cool post" type posts  and since few people have the skills or patience to add NEW material to the thread... you get few people posting


4)  I still have to find out from newbies IF they are having trouble posting after signing up. Perhaps we need to make it mandatory somehow that they must post after signing up, at least to say HI  so we can see if they did more than log in, That way we can catch them and ask them what they are looking for. Since they cannot see the good stuff until they are granted access... they may not even know its there

5) Pimander made a point about the old forum  that there are members over there. I actually forgot about it because I posted a redirect page saying we are all over here :D  But that forum has no admin access. I will have to go have a look

We might have to make an email list of all new members and send them an email that is not automated. Maybe create a form letter explaining how it works here and asking them to tell us what they are looking for... with a list of options available


QuoteThat simple.

No, it's not :P  One solution would be to buy a professional forum and transfer the data... but those are based on price per number of members. We did kick around a small member fee... that way you would at least know who is serious

We need a weekly news letter.... going to set that up on the website itself  A signup, a search engine and subscribe button should work  but I would need to redo the ENTIRE site from scratch and I have been procrastinating on that as it is a HUGE task

QuoteShould it be non-disclosure of rocks. Hey, its a slow week,

Disclosure on rocks is coming :D
Title: Re: Old Thread Banners Poll
Post by: robomont on November 24, 2013, 08:12:34 PM
I didnt know the rock rule .thats funny.but true.

Above some one said delete post after 120days.dont you mean delete membership.
The reason i ask is i think post should stay but membership deleted.
Just call it my quirk but its frustrating to see all the lost members.most i dont even know.are they bots or what.maybe its been changed.i havent looked in a while.
I wish we could come up with a recruiting strategy.

Oh i wish i had a six inch screen.im typing this on a 4 x 3.
So far my dauter likes her slider not droid and is a text nut.250+- text a day.we joked about how some plans are 250 text a month.
At 16 its music texting homework maybe video games at friends.maybe a small amount of partying.very small.but i cant prove it.lol.

QuoteMaybe folks are too self centered.i dont know.especially the younger generation?

There is also another factor that I have noticed on Facebook...

The VAST MAJORITY of conspiracy folkes and the UFO believer crowd have ALREADY MADE UP THEIR MINDS

FB is full of people that think they are Pleiadians, Star Children, Indigo kids... abducted every night and are 'experiencers'

When you get down to it they all turn out to be wannabe's and dreamers  and if you try to inject reality you get the boot

There are a few researchers  like in the Chemtrail department...  but they will mx the good reports with pictures of natural clouds and claim HAARP did it or the evil gubment sprayers did it.

On facebook they are king... can say what they want and are guaranteed followers. This boosts there ego and soon they post more crap than truth because that is what the audience 'likes'

When they come here and see we actually analyse stuff and might actually debunk some of their pet beliefs... they scurry like cock roaches when the light comes on

Then there are the "Light Workers"  not the few real ones that are actually doing something, but all the wannabe new age crowd that say Namaste every post like they even know what it means :D  These type are the opposite of doom porners  because they take credit for every doom that DIDN'T happen... and say "See? Us Light Workers prevented this..."

I like the weekly email newsletter.who will write it?
Would be one of the few emails i would actually look forward to reading.

Who is our youngest member.he she may have the answer.to the new recruits.or maybe we are all a very rare breed indeed.
I spend some time at lop .looking for news and posting as robopuff.they have a tight group like we have.i think they have higher numbers of options of discussion .

Maybe be our chat forums.with invited link at bottom of page option.or ig option.depending on membership.
These more chat options as far as current events.glp lop bin all have great layout imho.these extra subjects or titles draw people in.this would add more searches linking here.more potential members.more revenue.couldnt that layout be easy to program?right now its kinda opposite for potential .i like it to see whos posting on what thread but the normal viewer wants a basket choices to chat about.imho

Posts are set NOT to auto delete except "moved thread" notices that delete after 30 days

Inactive members are set to delete after 120 days but never checked to see if that is working right

There is still a banner that says "Warning someone posted while you were typing, you might want to review your post"

The "120 day since last posted" is now turned off :P

QuoteI wish we could come up with a recruiting strategy.

two ways

1) open the doors like GLP or ATS and get 90% posters have no value  or
2) actively go invite good people.

Been working on 2) at facebook, but its not working because all the good posters are busy elsewhere and looking at replies of the rest, well do we really want the morons?

But it wouldn't need to be much to start. I was planning once to tackle the revamp of the website is as I update a topic... to send an email saying "Here is topic so and so.... we will take discussion on this topic this week at the forum"

But I still need to create the automatic newsletter mail program

We DO need a 'subscribed thread function"  That is one I miss from ATS... so threads that YOU are interested in show recent posts

Thing is with chat   comes down to time...

I don't use skype and use pidgeon ONLY for admin chats  and even that limited chat takes time. When chatting you get on other topics and loose time. If just 1000 members are chatting all the time you would never see the posts as they would fly by too fast like Facebook

Since you see ALL public posts on Facebook... it means that very few people are posting publicly on facebook  because if the millions posted stuff daily you would never catch anything

Best thin I can do is make the library threads on the actual website and then link to a discussion forum thread form there. At least if its on the website others can see it and then get a direct link to the discussion

If its a private room, a note on the website link can say "You must have permission to access this topic"

But all that takes HUGE amounts of time.  Maybe in January I can hire someone to do the web revamp as I am expecting a little cash from an auction :D

Theres a price to pay for sifted wheat versus unsifted.i say open it up but have different gates .the gates are opened by you and admins .not mods.i think they joke at lop and atx  about 10,000 post member club.peg  is sorta like that.these gates go to privaate chat rooms or direct link to chatrooms.preferably yours.for admin.mods.just friends.but the main screen is insain.go for broke.its about making money and your friends will be here too.if you can afford to.i do like your amazon link.i just keep forgetting to use it.its needs to be at the top in your face kinda but with better graphics to make it look like we officially approve."amazon official sponsor of pegasus"pegasus and amazon in bold snazzy lettering.
Zorgon i want you to know im in no way telling you how to run your site.just giving my opinion because its was kinda asked.

Post by: robomont on November 24, 2013, 09:15:36 PM
Non existing staff lol.maybe we could con sinny.lol.
Most folks get sent to the other guys because they have more subject matter.mostly on current events.thats what most search for.if we hit with stories first then peg rating goes up fastest.we can generate news as we members are spread out and sometimes get leads quicker than the msm.
Last night willy nelsons bus wrecked down the road a few miles from me.local news had it first.i could have posted it on peg and got you loads of hits.i just dont want to corrupt peg until you open the gates.plus it would keep me here longer as there is more subject matter.you may need to get fiber if you do this though.lol.if we do it right though i could see you making some serious cash.blowing the competition out of the water would be easy from what ive seen.hell start a news company.lets go after the big dogs.

Post by: deuem on November 25, 2013, 01:48:27 AM
Z, Thank you for removing the 120 day post banner, See what happens. All of our threads will look fresh and the work the elders did will be available to post against without newbie fear. I thank you.

As far as the ideas tossed around , I like the newbie must do a post idea the best. At least say "Hi"  This also give all current members a heads up!  Right now newbie or Peglet will just show up in the middle of a post and we have no idea who they are. I guess if you don't have the rocks to say Hi, then why are you joining an active forum? Go read a book. Hey they work!

Maybe if they were to get an instruction list also in the email on how to do things. Every so many days we read I don't know how to do this or how do I post a picture. How do I capture a photo in a post, and so on. It is very complicated for non-computer people. In reality it is mostly very simple, I think this needs to be addressed.  Maybe I could help with another thread doing a layout of this and asking members to fill in the holes.  A "HOW TO DO IT NOTICE" Everything from making or getting an Avatar to posting a video or photo.  I think that this instruction notice should also be held up front for all to see and re-read when every anyone wants to. Updated by your secretary. lol

I also like what was mentioned about forbidden rooms and getting a message. Right now you just "DON"T SEE THEM" and have no idea they are there. They are a secrete. So good of a secrete we tend to forget them if we have access. Hey it looks open to me!  Now Log out and come back in without logging in and you will see it.. Huh, my thread is gone?  So what is there to inspire to if you don't even know it is there.

I can't find what I am looking for but somewhere it was mentioned we need a button for following threads. We have that now. It is on the bottom and reads "Notify me"  I use it all the time, am I the only one? It will treat that thread just like a new reply and follow it for you to your new reply button.

I would never delete a member for the lack of a post in a month. Hey, life gets in the way. I just took off almost 6 weeks to move. And then you have the problem of Deuem, Deuem 1, Deuem 2, Deuem 3 and so on. What a pain, I would think twice about it and move on. That is also very negative. We want positive, Like the bank does, " we seemed to have missed you and your payment is overdue", The longer it goes on the notice changes. Till OK, You never paid and we took your house. The game was that they did notify you.  Several times.

I like so far:

1) 120 day old post banner removed.. TYZ [thank you zorgon]
2) During sign up, a 1 post rule. Even Just "Hi" is Ok with me.
3) Instruction letter sent with sign up
4) Instruction Thread maintained up front
5) Being able to see rooms and getting a non access message.  hang the apple out vs bare tree
6) A top ten hit list sent out once a month. A very simple one with links.
7) Never killing a members Name, no matter what. Do a re-activate
8) Post I miss you email to missing members
9) Maybe once you hit 'Hero Level" you are grandfathered from the axe for life.

I mean who is gonna axe "John", he has been off for more than a month. See in some areas it does not make sense.... The 3 Amigos and so on are all over a month. What about when we have members end up in the hospital, like 1WW, do we axe them for being sick or left for Duty in a war zone.  Life does get in the way.

Wow, I would feel real bad about all of the above.. Getting a "We miss you" with a big wet kiss is better than getting an eviction notice any day....One of those means "you want me", the other means "go screw off looser".

Deuem

You make some good points.
But I dont think post should ever be removed.

Ok Robo #10 Posts should never removed unless they violate the rules of the forum Or by a group of admin finding a stalker or hunter. We have had several cases of that and there will be more if open.

As far as the ideas tossed around , I like the newbie must do a post idea the best. At least say "Hi"  This also give all current members a heads up! 

Deuem,

Yes, this and everything else very good ideas.

just a thought after reading all the ideas
the one that jumped was that if you aren't signed in you don't know what you are missing
cause you can't see it

maybe the headin can show and that little thing that says.. you need to sign in to read could pop up if someone tries to read it...
all the threads are visible by heading but you can't read it if you aren't signed in..

and i hafta confess to a pet peeve in that if a thread has 20 comments all right after each other time wise ......that is all that is visible
you see the same heading 20 times by who posted

maybe just the heading can be visible so that more topics can be viewed..

my two cents
::)

Sky I am a little confussed on what section you're talking about. Is it the side banner with recent posts. If so I know what you mean. One time I did 20 post in a row and took over peggy. I have that snapsot some where. I did not realize what I had done to that list till I was done. I think you are asking for only 1 per topic and keep the field of view more open. y/n? Take out the duplicates?

Yes, very important to the family here. I like to try and give one to every new poster. Sorry if I missed any of you.  I do remember the very warm welcome I got when I joined and it made me feel at home and not just bum on the side lines.  If we ever get hundreds of newbies within a week or so, this will be a challenge to keep up with but we can try our best. Oh and if they just say Hi, don't pick on them..Say Hi back,

I think zorgon misunderstood me.i agree with sky.like a top twenty most active threads.like glp and lop have.i wouldnt mind a anonymous  sign in.just in case we get a big fish.that way they can stay anon.totally anon.this would create a honey pot for new info.maybe even have an incryption app.for 99.9% security.our secret members should deserve to feel safe.
One thing i really despise is sign in using g+ fakebook etc.i dont use any of those and i dont want to start.keep those nosey bs out of our club.
Oh and i agree with the stalking deal .it should be takin care of but at the same time.a person should be allowed to have a thread to call out a shill or stalker.but they should also provide evidence if they are gonna do it.
I personally dont want to see things that bring the site bad publicity.but you have to admit that if one of our members went postal.it would sure increase traffic.

Well I just finished reading this thread, not all of it word for word but the bullet point's and about 60% of the word's !

I mention that becuase I posted in an old thread regarding "No Moon for the US" started by Sargent of Rock ;)

http://www.thelivingmoon.com/forum/index.php?topic=4206.msg79095;topicseen#new

Q: Why do I mention that ?

A:  The reason we are all here is because we like what we read from dilligent people who questioned the official story... the very people who sort and sifted the information back in the day's when being able to chat instantly with other like minded people was new to most people.

Let's not forget that this ability to converse worldwide is quite new, and *The Ability to Present New Information through Research* and trying hard to find small details that don't fit the official story is a *bit on the less weighty side now* due to the scammer's along with a very pertient reason Zorgon Mentioned in regard's to a Lot of People... "They have made up their mind" to a certain degree, yet they are "Happy to Read".

In saying all that... our goal as a coordianted group in our own La La land is really about taking over this planet from tryanny and getting the message out there to people in their slumber as we may see it on a whole.  Oddly human's don't see eye to eye easily even on here, but we are attracted for a greater good for some unknown reason...  ;)

I really do think we have a good group here and I enjoy reading all the post's thats for sure, varied and electic to the power of Tesla, we are so varied though that we are not as co0ordinatited as we need that would make the changes in this site for now.  That is not a bad thing, thats Life on Earth.  But its a start to discuss how we can get on track with project's and fulfuil some of that laziness we know we all have and banish at least 10% of that lazy attitude that we all harbour and START to Get Something Done! 

As someone who love's athlete's who do stuff that's pushing boundarys I won't bore you with Namaste, 

All the Best

Fuuuuuckkk Yeeeahhh

Soma!  :)

It does give me eye problems.its hard to focus on the phone and then focus on the captioning on the tv.takes time for my eyes to readjust.about thirty minutes.

Plus typing is slower but i barely have to move my arms compared to a regular size keyboard.
