Serious Can't Post A Video? - Read And Then You Can Post

Site owner, lovely and adorable
We welcome everyone to come and share their videos. We love finding new motovloggers and fully support you all where we can.

However, motovlog.com is not a dumping ground for your videos so we have come up with some simple rules for this section.

  • To post in this section you need to have 5 posts per 7 days in other areas of the forum
  • You can reply to posts within this section but you CANNOT reply with video posts (unless the OP has asked you to)
  • You cannot promote yourself or others in someones thread unless asked
  • You cannot keep bumping your own thread with videos. If we see this, we will delete the whole thread
  • Only members who have accounts older than 7 days can add threads
  • Videos are to be embedded not linked to
  • Posts in this section are not counted
  • Videos have to be embedded and playable here. They'll be deleted if not

Why have we made this rule?
  • Reduce the number of low quality posts to this section
  • Encourage members to be more interactive with motovlog members (We don't owe you views, you earn them)
  • Give those who interact with the forum more exposure while getting rid of the people who joined just for this section.

We don't owe you or your channel anything, if you want us to check out your videos, give us a reason for it and get involved. ;)

TO CONFIRM. THE SITE TAKES A FEW MINUTES TO REGISTER POSTS SO THERE IS NO POINT COMING ON, POSTING THEN COMPLAINING ABOUT NOT BEING ABLE TO POST HERE, GIVE IT A FEW MINUTES, NORMALLY NO MORE THAN 10

UPDATE TO RULES HERE:

Good old fashioned straight talking Dan.... well done mate... Don't suppose you could mentor a few politicians while you're at it, be nice to see them do the same.
 
These rules are more than fair, just so I'm clear that's 5 posts a week. Just in case I'm away can I still post scheduled videos even if I don't have time to post messages? for 1 or 2 weeks

I fully understand the reason and the idea behind it, sadly I don't think its a great idea. Yes you will get some more random posts in other sections but many will start the post whoring every time they want to add a video post.

Not saying something like this needs to be done, just thinking they may be a better way?

Maybe so but it's something we can keep changing if need be. The top posters caused loads of post whoring when I first put that live but it's settled down a fair amount.

The post whores moved on, forums tend to go through member changes every few months. I can deal with that.

I don't care if someone comes on, says hello to 5 new members a week and posts a video, that's more than they've done for the site than coming on to slap up a video.

I'm always happy to hear fresh ideas
 
Average of so many posts per week? Covers for people who go on holiday or are away for whatever reason for a week or two? Then the average thing will sort out those who try to post whore to just get a link put up in here.
