My Take on Forum Privatization - Your Suggestions?

[Master]

Hey all,

I have been reading your suggestions and we're thinking of privatizing the forum. The reason why we haven't privatized it before is due to the fact that we get a bunch of low-quality signups when we make the forum private, not only that, but leaving it open keeps the lower quality users away. Advertising is also another reason why we haven't privatized the forum.

The last time we had BOTB private, people registered and spammed 100 posts to get access to the section. I just want to hear your suggestions on how we can best handle it.

i think it is time...

 

[Deleted member 29167]

Why not disable signups and make the forum private while waiting for the tiktok trend to die down? If people really want to join the forum after that, they can wait until the privatization is over.

[DR. NICKGA]

just private the forum
if people get 100 (or more) posts then give him acces to BOTB

if they spam or shitpost then don"t give them acces (the staff can check that)

if people post guide"s and advice on the rating section = more chance he will get acces to BOTB

I hate the tiktok wave but making the forum private isn't really necessary, the tiktokcels don't have any interest in reading long forum posts and aren't accustomed to this kind of a platform. They might join but they sure as shit won't stay

The dudes on tiktok are such normies it's honestly excruciating to watch them make blackpill jokes, for them it's just a meme and it'll pass

 

[HeightPilledum]

No need to privatize it, just don't make any retard join so casually or just wait a couple of weeks before letting anyone join.
If this forum makes its money via ads, privatizing it kills the very little revenue it does get

 

[Zeruel]

That’s not a good enough reason.

The blackpill is inevitable.

Small penis humiliation for all sub Chad men is inevitable.

 

[Squirtoutmabooty]

My idea would be to split the looksmaxxing section into 2 different sections: one for softmaxxing and one for surgerymaxxing. The surgerymaxxing forum would be application only for users who came in after a certain date. Let’s be honest, the only real fear is for surgery prices to be driven up, everything else is negligible

 

[Debetro]

I don't know whether it's too early to do it. One of the reasons to do it I guess is keeping away high amouns of people coming from social media who potentially could turn this site into a bluepilled space similar to r/selfimprovement for example.

There will most likely be a moment when privatization will be needed in order to to keep the forum's essence, but it's hard to tell if now is the moment.

[StrangerDanger]

If you privatized the entire forum without implementing section restrictions based on post-count there would be no incentive for greycels to spam 100 shit posts directly after sign up to access BOTB

its not gonna get privatized forever. i think privatizing until the tiktok trend dies down would be the best move to make sure the forum keeps the essence without a bunch of unknowledgable tiktokkers making bad posts. after a few months it would be back up

 

[Squirtoutmabooty]

Also give graycels a much shorter leash than older posters

Let's privatize the best of the best section until a user achieves a certain number of reps. This measure can last for a few months until the trend dies down. The rating section should also be privatized since valuable information is shared there from the best of the best section. The offtopic and other sections don't need to be privatized as they are not crucial for looksmaxing. Those genuinely interested in being part of the forum will easily reach the reps goal, while those seeking to benefit without contributing will be filtered out.

Furthermore, we should prevent new users from repping each other, as they might collaborate to reach the rep threshold. Instead, new users should only be allowed to receive reps from established, long-time users here.

 

[TheDragon]

Make it so that you require at least 50 words or more to explain why you want to sign up and reject sign ups that contain grammatical errors or vulgar language so you don't get low quality sign ups. This would help keep out 80iq tiktok normies. Oh and private every section except for the rules and announcement.

yep it's the best idea. we already have enough touristcels here.

the sooner the better

all they do is just lurk anyway prying eyes hidden in the darkness

Master i think you long ago prioritized quantity of posts over quality of posts.

If people view this forum as a means to entertainment then it becomes a circus, because circuses are entertaining.

Anyone actually improving themselves wouldn't be on here much. In the same way that someone trying to build muscle should spend more time working out than reading about working out.

This forum quality hasn't been great in a long time. I used to really try to make quality posts but stopped months ago because this forum is filled with retards.

It makes no difference if you make it private or not. The forum has been and still is filled with retards and making it private doesn't help. It's not possible to have a wide scale high quality community for one reason: most people aren't high quality. And the ones that are got the information and left. So it makes no difference if it's private or not. However for privacy reasons you should let people entirely delete their posts.

Please make a surgery sub-forum. That would improve the website a lot.


Jawsurgeryforum makes you pay to sign up in crypto. Keep the retarded broke tik-tokers out. Once they pay no need for them to spam 100 posts or anythign to get access to BOTB or surgerymax sub-forum.

i've been thinking about this too. a surgery subforum which requires you to pay to enter would be very useful. it would also filter out the broke people who cant afford to pay for access.

 

[pentamogged9000]

i say close botb for exclusive access like account made before certain date/rep

 

[Tabula Rasa]

private everything except offtopic

Have them name 3 PSL gods, 2 users and a previous incel forum. That should keep out 90%+ of normies.

This would also work.


@Master act fast, up to you to either put it behind a paywall, or private the whole forum. Either way it will benefit everyone in the long run.

Niggas will make a quizlet on post the answers on it just like how we cheat in school tests/hw

Yeah didn’t think about this. How about we ask them to send in a picture or video of them cumming on a pic of Chico.

Broke people who are still determined can find valuable surgical information scattered across the forum's history though. We need to block them from here. This site is like a cave. There's diamonds, but you need to look and work for it.

 

[StrangerDanger]

Privating BOTB is pointless without also privating the Looksmaxxing section as it contains infinitely more knowledge and content that will draw them here as it's exclusive to this site. Moneymaking, Off-Topic, Ratings etc is useless generic shit that you can find on most other forums so they dont need to be privated

 

[Lord&Master]

They also need to have a Chico pillow, a wall poster of David Gandy, and must have a folder containing a thousand pictures of different PSL Gods

off-topic still has some useful posts to be honest

i think full privitization for a few months would work best until the trend dies down

 

[Deleted member 19766]

be LOW INHIB and totally privatize the forum until 2024, no sign-ups until then either. tiktok obsession should die off by then (If not then we will figure it out)
Once it's 2024 you should implement some of the other features people are talking about for sure though

Edit: I forgot 2024 is only like 5 months away so I'd say to wait it out even longer tbh

Entire fucking forum should be locked down and private ASAP.

[Lord&Master]

There are forums like cracked.io and nulled.to (cracking and hack forums)

They require paid membership to view certain content, and also require certain reputation to view content I believe.

They also have a feature that detects spamming and bans you permanently if you do.

half the niggas campaigning against muh tiktokcels joined like 2 months ago

That's also true. But some of them are actually High IQ who were just lurking though.

There's gotta be a better solution

ideally we would ban all members who joined after like 7/15 but privatizing would be good enough right now. i just think it should happen asap before more low-quality posters sign up.

Half of them are alts as well and most old users are pretty low IQ anyway
Doesn't really matter much I guess.
