LPSG Members: become part of the solution.

Maybe it's time to have a look through this thread, collate the information and decide if any changes are going to be implemented, then unstick it.

We can hope.

Though now I think about it, the server has been fine for long enough that I can't remember the last time I couldn't access a page, so that's good. Technically, LPSG seems to be fixed - now let's improve it, pretty please?

Well, since it seems nothing will ever come of this thread, I also think it should be unstuck and allowed to drift into obscurity once and for all, so we can officially be done with it.

make user names and profiles not show up on searches such as google, yahoo, and others.

Midwestgal, that simply isn't practical. It might be possible to block some parts of LPSG, such as profile pages. But it's better just to be aware that: anything you post to the web, belongs to the web.

Renewed suggestion to create a separate forum for new gallery additions (pics, vids).

A suggestion of mine would be to ban anyone who repeatedly links to 2girls1cup.com. The way I see it, any other problem on Rob's list can be worked out, whereas this really can't. There's just no excuse.

It's your own fault for clicking it...

I'm relatively new here but I've posted quite a bit. I also generally think it's a cool site. If I don't find a thread I can relate to I definitely enjoy going to the humor/joke section. I'm a student so sometimes I'll just check the site out fast to relieve the stress of reading or paper writing. Thanks to all peeps here.

I have some ideas of how LPSG can be improved:

Make a seperate place where members can post their new pictures or can announce their updated gallerys. It is quite annoying that this happends in the same area as where members try to have good and helpfull converstations (Young and Hung). So make an apart place called: Pictures or something.

Oblige people to post new parts of old fictiticous stories in their old thread. Right now their are sometimes more than three threads for only one story, all threads contain a different part.
This improve of structure will improve the appearance and accesability of the part Fictitous Stories.

Allow people to post pictures in their gallery that do not show themselves but oblige them to make this known and report the source.

Assuming you're not talking about the "Am I hung?" type of posts, a recommended place for those is: New Member Introductions. I don't think it's "in writing" but such posts are allowed in that forum. As for the "Am I hung?" posts, there have been numerous suggestions for a separate forum for those.

Long ago, when I was a moderator, we talked with Rob_E about renaming the sub-fora. One of the ideas that I recall we all thought was good was making New Member Intros the place where gallery updates, etc. would happen.

So clearly this will not be happening.

That is correct. Rob_E also talked about opening a new sub-fora just for gallery pics and links, though nothing ever came of it. As I recall for a while we did move all the "pic" posts to the New Member sub-fora, but over time we quit doing it. I don't think it was a deliberate decision. It just happened.

I am very much in favor of the concept of a sub-fora for gallery pics and allowed links. Creating a sub-fora may be easier said than done. To me, this is the single most important change to the *"layout" of the LPSG that is needed.

*"layout" - The look of the page, number of forums etc. The way the technology works as we use the site.

I would like to see the return of the notation of having posted in a thread.
