I would try to create a function that shows the posts you have read or commented in already. Otherwise I am home here. I am on here 100 times a day, just ask the rest of the family. Oh and most importantly I can't find my key to that one place anymore.

- Create "Rider X" threads where people could ask an anonymous pro questions that are filtered by a mod.
- Create a rep/neg system where people who post crap all the time could be limited in what they post in the future, and once people hit a certain "rep" level that get special privileges of some sort.
- Let people vote for a mod each month.
- Start charging people to post every month.........ahhhhh who am I kidding that idea is idiotic!

I'd administer capital punishment for all posters who create non-moto threads on the moto board.

If I were forum admin for a day, I would make it a permanent rule that all thread post end with the word "over".

If I were forum admin for a day, I'd Re-route the Abso-F'n-lutely Nutty Haters that constantly post the Same Ol' Shit(*) to Really Ugly Ubber-Spamming sites or places where they'd be happier...or...told to F.O.

Also, I'd drag the Office-Folk down the street to John Wayne and show'em how we DO get stuck looking at those DAMN "intersital" (sp?) ad's when we're on slower service providers...DOH! (I'll take them to SFO if I have to: that's where I ALWAYS GET STUCK lookin' at those damn things while I'm clicking "skip" fusiously like Cartmann on South Park!)

* all the Four-Stroke, WMX, "Certain" Track or Venue, Industry, Business, Moto-Brand, Freestyle, TV Race Coverage, SX v. MX v. GP, American v. Euro (ME, too!?), J-Law, Hanny, JS7, RV, RD, CR, MA800...Haters...GONE!
Poof!
To places like Haters Anonymous, MotoNews...where-ever...but....Buh-Bye-Bitchers!

I'm jus' sayin'...

Most people realize that. That's when you just keep banning them when they expose themselves so they gotta keep signing up. Make em work for it a little more.

i would have all the pros(poto,barcia,stewart,reed,etc..)posting in here..then i would throw up a bunch of photos of cool stuff i got so people would kiss my ass,then,create a bunch of contest on here and give away cool mx/sx swag all the time.
4/9/2013 11:39am
I would have a button that you could click on that would put all the new posts since you last logged-in in one location.

We’d like the activity to be more like Bourbon Street at 2:00AM, not downtown Baghdad at 2:00AM. This stuff should be fun for everyone, not painful.

I would remove the Baghdad reference from this part of the rules. I'm thankful I do not know first-hand, but I'd be willing to bet any bad thread/statement on here pales in comparison! No offense, of course...

I really don't think hookers and blow are a waste of money.

If you were the king of Vital you wouldn't be paying them for sex. You would be paying them to leave afterwards.

I would give Scottie a big fat raise for having to deal with Vitards like me on a daily basis...I know that has nothing to so with a forum admin....just saying he deserves a raise! Or at least some more Red Bull!

I would make the forum more like Reddit.

For those unfamiliar, Reddit works with a Upvote/Downvote system.

The posts that receive upvotes from users rise to the top, the posts that are downvoted get buried at the bottom.

If someone said something stupid here, he would realize it in the form of downvotes. The beauty of this system is that it's democratic. If shit is posted, the poster and everyone else knows that it is shit. In a sense, a forum set up like this evolves. The only function of a Mod in this system is to ban users, a lot of subjectivity is removed from the process.

Don't you hate having to search through pages and pages of shit for the one informative or interesting post? All of the good stuff would be at the top. The useless, low-effort inflammatory stuff would be at the bottom of the thread.

But people here flock to shit... sort like flies, dung beetles, stuff like that. Smile

Start a game where I hide a specific word or sign somewhere deep in page 1 or 2 of the main forum threads, when someone finds it they earn a point, at the end of the week or month the highest points gets a Tshirt or a ticket to a race or something from a sponsor. This will keep more people on Vital longer searching (better numbers for you guys for advertising revenue) and force people to read what I am saying more often since it is supposed to have value. It also might gameify the site a bit for the kids... Tongue Your welcome. Ill be here all week, try the veal.
