ExiledTyrant -> WTH Mods? (2/13/2014 9:28:31 AM)

Okay, the Mods keep poking a twig at the subject, and I'm calling for an out right coup! Grab your big stick and let's [sm=beatdeadhorse.gif] beat the hell out of it!

CM is pretty wonderful. The community, when tight and not riddled with petty fiefdoms is freaking amazing. However, I would like to see things a little more personal and user friendly. I know I am not an island in this, so I'd like some input from all of you.

Chia-pet, here we go!

Top and bottom designations, pretty please (how can anyone resist a Tyrant saying pretty please?)

C/D and Trans color designation, green or sumthin... Or two tanks sword fighting next to the name.

Leave the "Ask's" alone, add a C/D/T ask, and a T/b ask.

Code the threads so that only the OP is visible until you reply to the OP, then you'll have access to the entire thread.

Jus sayin

P.S. You should probably go ahead and put in the TOS that all the /s's are owned by Exiled Industries Inc. and by joining CM as an /s you wave all rights, becoming property.... Blah blah blah, you know the drill... And yes, there will be a drill... 220v 190amp if my demands are not met.

We're always large and in charge.... Till they hit the button on shock collar, then I'm just flopping on the floor until I recover enough to resume control.

The forum Moderators have nothing to do with the profile side of CollarMe.

If you wish to make suggestions about changing the profile side of CollarMe, please send an email to Support.




ExiledTyrant -> RE: WTH Mods? (2/13/2014 11:11:53 AM)

Must compile a list of changes to overwhelm them with first.

TNDommeK -> RE: WTH Mods? (2/13/2014 11:58:17 AM)

I never fuck with the formula but an "ask a poly group" section would be cool. Can't remember who said that first but
they had a good idea.




DaddySatyr -> RE: WTH Mods? (2/13/2014 12:22:17 PM)

"Top" and "bottom" designations would be great! Forget the color coding; just the ability for people to choose those designations ...

Where the real problem comes in is with education.

I've told this story before, but back when you could make private rooms on Yahoo chat, I had a room that was lifestyle based and I saw this exchange with my own eyes:

quote:



Female submissive: Hi. How are you doing.

Male newb: I'm okay. Thanks.

Female submissive: Are you dom or sub?

Male newb: I don't understand?

Female submissive: Well, do you like to spank or be spanked?



I had to step in. I explained as many different choices to the newb as I could. I believe that as a community, we need to do a better job of teaching people who come in.

I know I'm tired of wasting my time on bottoms, when I'm looking for a submissive.



Peace,



Michael

shiftyw -> RE: WTH Mods? (2/13/2014 5:22:47 PM)

I'm all about the "T/b" designations. It would save me so much hassle trying to explain that "I'm not a 'real' slave, but I'm still into BDSM, and I'm allowed to be here" conversation I have had entirely too many times.

It would be nice to have Dom/sub designatons on the message board side....beause you can't always tell right away just from someone's screen name...sometimes you have to go back and look for their profile. It would also be nice to add the Top/bottom designation as well....although a lot of people will say in their profile that they are only looking for play....which in my book (JMO) means "Top/bottom" not "Dom/sub" or "Master/slave".

KYsissy -> RE: WTH Mods? (2/13/2014 5:53:59 PM)

Agree with most except the "cant see the thread until you reply" i cannot count how many times what i was thinking was already posted, or there was a good reply that altered what I was thinking.

Since the inception of CM most threads spiral into the bowls of hell... Which used to be aptly named "Polls & Random Stupidity", due to the fact the OP would become overshadowed by another post. The nature of the OP would be lost in some presumptuous pissyness and everyone would began formulating replays based on a skewed view of the OP. More often than not, the many replies would be read, amalgamated into something surreal, and the thread would die... Thankfully. However, a profound OP more often than not would die a miserable death because the nature of the following posts would demolish the original intent.

Thank you for that smileforme50, the sig line would make that possible and would be a great addition overhear. However, I think I should just put Dickhead in my sig line, there's a D in it ;)

DesFIP -> RE: WTH Mods? (2/13/2014 8:30:17 PM)

I don't think we need an Ask a Poly, there already is a Polyamorous Lifestyles forum. Unless you just think the name ought to be changed.

<snip>

CM already invited suggestions back in December. I thought many good ones offered would have been implemented by now, not limited to:

- Top/bottom - Keeping the color-coding to correspond with Dominant/submissive would make this addition fairly seamless. You're right about the education part, esp. newcomers who don't know how to differentiate.

- Switch - Color THEM green (males can be mint green or teal, females spring green or chartreuse). Stop lumping them in with submissives.

- However somebody has classified herself/himself on the profile side should carry over into the user box on the forum side (Dominant/Top/switch/submissive/bottom). Perhaps a checkbox feature within forum profile to Hide if anybody elects not to have this displayed.




ARIES83 -> RE: WTH Mods? (2/14/2014 3:37:51 AM)

But I like reading everyone's replies more than I like posting them... and half the time when I do post, its in response to something that's come up in the course of the thread. not the OP.
your kinda screwing me here.[&o]

******Oh I do have an idea for an upgrade! though its been said before... give me a "Like" button for crying out loud******
And also, have a tally count for peoples total likes.... And let the competitiveness ensue [;)]




sunshinemiss -> RE: WTH Mods? (2/14/2014 4:12:06 AM)

I can see it now... a whole thread of "n.m."s just to be able to read a thread filled with "n.m."s

Funny! If they ever do lock a thread until posting, now I know what to do.

I can understand why it would be a good idea to lock it. The chances of getting sincere replies that are not influenced by the ideas of others may decrease.
However, I can see better reasons why not to. It may reduce the quantity, and possibly quality, of new posters.
I was a lurker for some time, glad I was. Had I not been able to observe first, I would never have started posting.
Like Aries, I often find myself replying to other replies in the thread.
And, like Kysissy stated, there will probably be many duplicate thoughts. Particularly in regards to the OP's spelling, fantasy-driven drivel, or what a douchecanoe they sound like. I'd really prefer to not see that happen.

I do really like smileforme50's suggestion. There have been many times I wanted to know which side the point of view was coming from.


And, I'm really going to have to read the fine print on this one:
