No posts are excluded.

Only the moderator forums which I think is fair, even though we don't use it lol

You forgot the private subforum for confirmed vloggers.
Do posts there add to the count?

Don't think we need a private forum for posting videos now we have the new rules

 

[GixxersShadow]

Interesting concept, is there a way to make sure people don't misuse this?

Like @MrCods you mean?

Hey, I represent that

Okay I admit it has a competitive element to it! But I think as long as you post good constructive feedback or honest responses, Not just, 'cool' or something like that. shouldn't be an issue if people want to post 300 a month! >

I totally didn't think of that when I brought it onto the site

Apparently motovlogers are competitive! Or at least a few are, didn't think I would be one of them but since you messaged me, it has been on my mind!

 

[SwissMotard]

I did wonder why your spam increased a lot recently

 

[OlliePrice]

Spam? how dare you! and yes blame Dan, I really didn't think I'd catch you guys until he said.

 

[SwissMotard]

I think the spam threads shouldn't be included in this post count thingy. By that I mean the weird counting with pictures etc threads.

 

[OlliePrice]

No I'm not sure I follow what threads you are talking about?

Is it worth limiting the number of times the top poster can be featured, say once a quarter?

I'm just thinking that I'm a huge forum user and I don't want to encroach on other active members just because I have less of a life than them.

Just a thought on a way to share the love around (giggity).

 

[AndyManCam]

Maybe there should be some kind of minimum word filter too?!

To weed out the "Cool", "Green", "Purple Monkey Dishwasher" replies and keep it to constructive, information sharing posts?!

 

[SwissMotard]

I'd agree with that, but I imagine it's a lot of effort and unless this initiative causes a problem I don't think anything should be changed.

Some short responses are valid such as answers to direct questions.

 

[AndyManCam]

Agreed.

 

[AndyManCam]

HA HA! I'm so funny!

Yeah, it's true. We could go backwards and forwards with suggested rules and ways to make it fair. But all that will happen is that we'll suck the life out of the experience!

I'm not too bothered about getting the top spot. I'm here to interact and share, so I'm getting plenty out of it. And hopefully I'm putting as much back in.

TBH, and I might be saying too much, I haven't actually watched the featured video. But I have watched LOADS of the other videos which I'm seeing in posts and discussions.

 

[SwissMotard]

If I get featured next month I'll put up an older video and compare the watched stats to see what effect it has.

 

[AndyManCam]

Thats a good idea. It'll be interesting to see, and more scientific to use a video where the views have 'settled'.

Thanks for your comment on the €uro tour trailer video too!
