The most time consuming thing at the moment is the feather reviews, which of course members don't see, which in turn makes people think that perhaps I'm not active.
I respond to questions and problems via PM's and I post when I want too.
Although I may look a little "un-active" most of of the stuff I do happens behind the scenes.
Also for a personal opinion, I think we can all agree that this new system has made things quite a bit better, we haven't had too many feather spammers at all. - Just the usual advertisers/spammers that are not related to the feather.
I would say this "system" has improved things a bit, but if there's a type of spammer that will always exist from time to time, who's primary focus is on that award. How are they going to notice that there's a "system" in place if they are off busy spamming.
My point here is that i'm not concerned whether they get the award or not. And virtually that's ALL the system does. I'm more concerned with the spamming that goes on for members to even think they qualify for the award. And just having a system in place is not going to prevent that. In some cases I would say we've been lucky with the system in place that some have even come across the thread, and read it to understand that they need to follow this system.
Whether they get the award or not in the end, I personally don't care. It has no relevancy to stopping much forum spam here, only the odd member who's intention was mainly for the award.
If you want this "system" to succeed on a larger scale, it's going to have to be more visible to the newly registered.
