Good suggestions....
I think some weighting has to be given but this would be difficult to outline an accurate policy on. For example, I've seen some more senior ranks give useless one-liners but -2K for them won't affect them. They should know better, so maybe a bigger hit would be more appropriate?
I agree- it does seem that it's the newbies who don't understand the system well, but it's because they've not bothered to take the time to read the guidelines.... I'm in two minds about this. On one hand, why not reduce them to a buggered beggar who can't rate? That way there should be more of a motivation to contribute to this forum in the way of reports to earn back K, rather than be able to just ask for contact details and most likely not report... those that put in the time and effort should be rewarded, those that don't should be negged.
There seems so many members on this forum who just take. It shouldn't be allowed to have so much one way traffic here, members should be made to contribute. I'm going off the original topic here, but my suggestion to this point would be to have a benchmark in place for newbie bookies. For example, you have to reach a certain rank within your first year otherwise you're account will be deleted. I've seen many newbie bookies who joined years ago so have clearly only taken and given nothing back to this forum. I think I'd be far better to have smaller numbers of people who actually contribute.
A welcome message with a link to the guidelines may indeed help, good idea.
Mods- maybe the above 3 posts could be copied into a new feedback/suggestions thread...
