A Process of Appeal for Official memberdom Options

[racoons > you]

In the thread about the sex forum, Fallen_fairy brought up the point of some members, because they went for a long period before beginning to post after they joined, being unable to achieve they requisit 5ppd to become an official member

these people can become very active and dedicated members, but because they have a backlog of Zero post days, they cannot get their' ppd up, even if they do post up to 10 a day, and would clearly have a ppd which meets standars were it not for the long period of inactivity

therefore,i think it should be possible for members with over 500 posts who want to become official members, but are unable to due to a low ppd should be able to launch an appeal by PMing an admin with there situation. if they prove themselves a positive part of the site by gaining the endorsement of two members and a moderator, then the yshould have their status changed to Official Member.

i don't think that the whole "endorsement" thing is necessary, since it's just trying to become an official member, not staff member. i think it'd be better if they changed it so that when you join, your ppd is simply at 0, and doesn't go negative or change until you begin to post.
