Posted by Dee Ashley That’s a good point. I wouldn’t have had any idea about my nomination had the person that nominated me failed to clue me in on that fact. |
Posted by Toledo So I get nominated by a full member to be a full member and get shot down for not having met up with another member irl? On a site that's practically dead at this point? You are kidding with me right? -_- |
Posted by goon1 Really cool location, I'd love to see some more pictures from the inside. |

Posted by blackhawk Dead? Really? That never goes over well here... Many FMs here including myself never met anyone here until long after they got their FM. Mods can and will jump you without anyone putting you up if you impress them. You didn't get jumped in because typical newbie mistakes including what boffo mentioned. The images you posted are high res/large file size and many are not keepers. So large in fact I got tired of waiting for them to load. By not downsizing the file or limiting the amount of large file size images make your threads a real pain to view on anything other than fios or cable. Making these mistakes means you've invested little time and/or effort in the site. I look at the online users a lot and note how many pages they went through that session. Some go through literally hundreds a session. The above short comings and you attitude got you my strike. Many good members have waited years to get their FM and never complained. I try to get these overlooked members jumped in when I notice them. |
Posted by Toledo Oh well I am so sorry you don't like the photos I take at the location I visit. Not all of us can afford fancy lens for their cameras or special lights for taking photos in dark buildings. And as someone with autism, posting things is not something I am good at. I am good at location management. I have my own map with something like 800 locations that I meticulously curate and maintain. I want to be a FM to add MY database to UERs database. More than happy to spend WEEKS adding places to UER map. But talking and playing nice with others is not my forte' |

Posted by Gothic Ghoul Well this got heated. |
Posted by Steed I'm not sure how the nominate for FM feature works, but it seems sometimes the nominated user is blindsided and unsure how to proceed. There is also a queue we can see of people who were nominated for FM and never responded, leaving them in this weird limbo. So at the very least you should warn the person first before nominating, so they can respond promptly. |
Posted by blackhawk Probably best to PM the person you plan to put up for FM before you do it to see how they respond. Most times I've have already been PMing with them. A few though they had such great threads/pics I made the mistake of not doing this. Ended up requesting they not be jumped in for specific reasons If you make enough jump-in requests for FMs as an FM or jump-ins as a mod, you are bound to get a few bad ones jumped in. Try to keep that number low! At the same time try to get long time overlooked good contributing members jumped in. Read over their posts well first. It is a time consuming process... |
Posted by Steed Yeah, we've also seen people sarcastically nominate obviously unqualified people for full membership, just to harass them. I think in the future we will have to punish users for that. |
Posted by zBees Absolutely! I would like to became a full member! |
