Eh, I just thought it would be better to broaden 'homework' to the name 'school' or 'school-related' now that school's started. Or since it's coming close to starting. Just a small suggestion.

Also, I think the limit of posts for becoming an official member should be 100 or 200. I know it sounds tough, but there are SOOO many people completely oblivious of what cB is about posting on the official members topic just to use the Xanga tools. And most of their comments are like "cool" "awesome" "lol" "haha" "omg" "gosh!" or something like that. Or it's in introductions like "welcome!" "welcome to cb!"

Arrr. Annoys me to no end. People don't read anyway..

Blah. That's it.

I agree (with both aspects topics you brought up) but especially the official member requirements. However,

Well, one of the other requirements is to maintain a 5+ PPD so I think that takes care of inactive members. I do check official members PPDs regularly so I don't think this is a problem.

And I don't want to discourage members from applying for Official Member status. Plus, raising the post count requirement may encourage members to spam even more within one or a few days.

from Roxanne in the offical member requirements thread. Meh.

Wouldn't the 5+ PPD encourage them to spam as well? Some people are have fulfilled all the requirements and have more than 50 posts and a lot more than 5 PPD, but they aren't really a contribution to CB. 50 is too little is all I have to say.

^ I agree with you.

The homework section hasn't been active recently.

The official member group is supposed to be... an honour? I mean, why can't we let newbies contribute more to the CB community before letting them be an official member. And if there are people who spam in order to get the status, admins will delay their status, won't they?

I dont think it should be changed because the term homework can be .. from workplace, bussiness place, and it's not just about school.
