Stand Out Stand Up
Community

I would like to create a group community that believes in the following changes for Createblog.

• Forum for the abusers: Have a forum where all posts are anonymous and users can report abusers without bashing. This means no rude words and no avatars/sigs. The reason for this is that when a users reports a person through a PM other CB members are not aware of these surroundings. If they created a froum people would be able to have a look-out for these people. Mods could be specificly added to watch this thread and to keep it under control.
• Layouts for your CB profiles: Don't you think it would be cool if you could edit your very own createblog profile? Although there may be reasoning for this not to happen, maybe more users would join if you could customize the look of your profile. It also would add a new section to the forums =)
• Have an Interest subforum called Traveling: It could be a place where people can talk about ratings, where their going, and stories of vactaions. Traveling would be a great place for people to know one another, and get some helpful advice for vacationingIdea By This Confession
• Ability of deleting posts: If a creator of a thread does not like a reply of another user due to bashing,content, or what not, the user could delete their(as in the other user's) post [with permission of a mod]

Feel free to add suggestions to these

I WANT EVERYONE TO KNOW...

That I respect all of createblog and its features! I could not be more happier with the way it is run and i respect the mods. I understand it is hard for these mods to keep 100% likeness of everyone, especially when they close topics. I just think democracy is what has made the world a better place so shouldnt this site be better than it already is?

As it's already been mentioned, it would take forever to close topics if we were to hold votes for every thread that needs to be closed. If there one that's controversial and you disagree over why it was closed, you can PM the mod that closed it or if it doesn't say anything, PM a Head Staff/Admin. They can find our (at least admins can) who closed it and can ask that specific mod why it was closed. If any of us disagree as well and/or you provide good reasoning as to why it should be opened, then it will. Yes, it doesn't hurt to try new things but this is one that many older members feel won't work. We just know. Insufficient reason but -shrug-.

The forum for abusers would just create unnecessary drama. We've been through several hate threads and none of them were successful. If there are any signatures or avatars with offensive content, PM a Head Staff/Admin to have it removed. You say that members can look out for these people, but I really don't think that would be necessary. Mods already do that and I don't think most people would care about certain people who cause trouble. They'll receive punishment if need be. And if you notice an "abuser", let a mod know so that we can keep an eye on them. Your help on that would be appreciated.
