Re: Re- launch of the forum

This forum is too precious to both the Boss himself and the users to be totally destroyed or drastically revamped.

A simple diagnosis would suggest that this forum is essentially made up of 3 distinct areas - 1) Porn sharing 2) Paid advertising 3) Sharing of info among samsters

Each area has its fair share of problems and so lets do some simple disections below.

1) Porn sharing
Boss would have to decide if this area is still worth keeping and if its worth keeping then do we need to have some rules on banning or restricting certain objectionable genres like underage (obvious), voyeur/upskirt (50-50?), BDSM (50-50?) etc. And what should the rules be and how to implement the ban and restriction?

2) Paid advertising
This is the area that brings in the dough for Boss and also to provide the money to keep this forum going and it also benefit the OKTs and prospective clients ourselves - the most 'important' yet problematic component of the forum. 90% of the problems lie with the OKTs (fake FRs, fake pics, delete unfavourable FRs, cyber bullying towards other OKTs and clients etc) and the 10% problems caused by clients are to be honest borned out of the problems caused by the OKTs. We are all just regular horny samsters that want to have a good time thats matched by the ads descriptions. We 'cause' troubles only when we need to fight back against those unfair/fake ads.
Boss would need to decide if this is still worth keeping and if so should any form of rules and regulation be in place? Separate threads for separate OKTs to keep things tidy and manageable? Instead of scantily clad ads logos should we have a coy logo of the OKT instead? Or maybe just a name of the OKT will do? Let the OKT put in some descriptions for his girls and services and allow samsters to reply in that thread but suggest the OKT to put a link to his own webpage for samsters to refer to that place for more info and pics. In this way this section would look less sordid but still allow the users to check everything at one glance and allow the OKTs a good and fair platform to conduct their business. Boss and mods would retain all rights to the deletion of replies on the separate threads so that samsters would not complain of unfair deletion of honest FRs. And of cos obvious cases of rival OKTs posting damaging FRs on rival threads should be severely dealth with.

3) Sharing of info
Important but none-revenue generating thus the strict clampdown on threads that look only remotely like advertising threads. I believe this is the least problematic of the 3 in terms of attracting unwanted public attention yet the most important as it is the spirit of sharing that brings in the samsters and thus web traffic in making this forum a lively one. I just hope Boss would be less lenient on deleting suspicious looking threads in order for the spirit of sharing to flourish again.

Apologies for I cant and did not provide full solutions to all that ive mentioned but i just hope the above are good food for thoughts to further improve the forum.

Cheers~
