Hummer Forums Rules / FNG questions
Okay..Let me address this question(s) of Gunner's:
This is an unsavory practice for sure..it is non-productive and it is (POST WHORING).
However to my knowledge, this has never been enforced or an issure here, as there has never been a need to.
Having said that; A few examples of Post Whoring, or just plain trolling would be if someone were to start a new thread with only smiley faces, or a statement like " Hi, I have a Ford Focus and I want to know if the HUMMER is a better car before I buy one"
..Or "what's the price of a HUMMER?"
or, "My rear wheel hasn't fallen off yet, is there a problem?"
..get the drift?
But to just to post a smiley after someone that has posted in reply, is fine..a picture is worth a thousand words.
This is a no brainer..don't post the same damn question or statement in five other forum topics..keep it to the one relevant topic.
Now as far as Membership status..
The More you post and productively contribute, either in jokes, slapstick humor, or actually HUMMER related topics..is all cool..The more you post, the higher your post count goes...which means you are a major contributor and a great member..so your title status changes as well in your AVATAR....
This is not advertized or well known...But once you have been around here and ACTIVE long enough, you're going to eventually hit the TOP TEN list...Thismeans, I will contact you via a PM and ask what would you like your AVATAR name to be (i.e., mine as MR CLEAN)...This sort of indiviualizes your name and gives credit to you, for being a long time member and an active contributor to the forum in the number of legitimate posts you have accumulated......That's it!......So, help the forum by being a good active member, you'll eventually get your own personalname forever. regardless if you get bumped off the list by another eager beaver..it's all good.
Now as far as the Admin/Moderator duites;
Those of us that have been appointed these duties, have been hand picked by the OWNERS of this forum..I was asked to do the Admin work, which involves a lot more than meets the eye here...The Moderators also do a lot of hard work and theywere alsohand picked by the OWNERS and they are of such demographics as to represent all the HUMMER styleshere (H1, H2, H3)...So it's not a personallity contest, the owners observed us as we were once members only, and saw certain traits they liked in us, to represent their forum here and keep it running smoothly....Personally, I find it a great honor and pleasure to respresent you the members and this forum...I personally think that we have done a great job in serving you and the forum, as the the new enrollments have gone crazy with new people joining everydayand that's a pretty good testiment to a place they want to be..Why are they joining? It's because they see the friendliness and helpfullness of you the members and that we are all fun to be around and get along most the time like a big family..Again, my thanks to everyone for making this the best HUMMER forum on the internet.
Lastly..Even though I have certain protocals I must live up to as the site's Admin...I still am just one of the guys and I expect no special favors or treatment fr
Multiple or repeated posting in order to increase your post count ("post whoring") is frowned upon.
If you do engage in this type of activity, we can prevent your post count from increasing from that point
