Let the noobs in FFA

Waves · 07-27-2010, 09:35 AM

So we've been discussing in these threads about the idea of taking away the 30 day 30 posts rule for FFA

http://www.yahooka.com/forum/feedbac...embership.html

http://www.yahooka.com/forum/feedbac...l-posting.html

What do you guys think about this. Personally I think if we were to let people just start posting in FFA they would be exposed to the 'real' yahooka right away, and they wouldnt have to wait 30 days to see if they actually want to stick around. 30 days is a long time in internet-time you know. if i had to wait fucking 30 days to start getting into the fun part of a forum i'd probably say fuck it.

so my opinion is open the floodgates, let the bitches come here and if they can hang they hang, if they cant they cant. we filter bitches pretty good around here.

perspectives? thoughts? lets get the fuckin ball rollin on this shit.

I agree, but it didn't bother me too much, as YaHooka is full of good reads.

Iono, that 30 day restriction doesn't seem that bad. If yahooka is really hurting for some new members then by all means drop it, but I think its something of a quality over quantity issue here.

**~~Dantastic~~** · 07-27-2010, 11:52 AM

having had to re-register, it is that bad.

the rest of the boards are boring as fuck, most people sign up and just get their 30 in and stop posting for 30 days. But by that time they forget or dont care.

Quality over quantity? what board are you posting on?

Kompressor · 07-27-2010, 11:54 AM

noobs or gtfo

mr.nobody · 07-27-2010, 11:58 AM

yahooka nigga, shit i like to laugh....and it brings the laughs

ionlylooklazy · 07-27-2010, 12:14 PM

we have no new regulars from 2010 or even 2009

farmergiles · 07-27-2010, 12:21 PM

Yes we do, just not really in ffa.

mr.nobody · 07-27-2010, 12:23 PM

^^thats because anytime someone with a 2009-10 join date post they are generally not met with a warm welcome.

Waves · 07-27-2010, 12:57 PM

dont forget being called an alt

being called an alt is just a part of the yahookan process, methinks

some cant tough it out.

gotta be careful with tossing around the 'alt' word even if its true. if people wanted to be known by their old name they would have kept it.

I think the policy of forcing noobs to pull a train should be dropped as well. I think it has a chilling effect on registration.

Wouldn't it be more realistic to cover them with x's of tape?
