Proposal by the Department of the First Minister
The Department of the First Minister, and the First Minister would like to propose a law that would require members to have minimum number of posts. Lately USNW has been... very inactive and we need to change that. Below are what I would like to propose as the minimum post requirement for the different types of members*. If the requirements aren't met then action will be taken against that member, if a full member doesn't meet the requirement, then a certain probationary will be applied to the member, such as the next month their minimum requirement would be higher and if it isn't met the second time their membership could be downgraded to ambassadorial, and then if an ambassadorial member doesn't meet their requirement then they would be set on probation, ect., and then they would have to post more the next month or their membership would be downgraded to observatory and so on with observatory memberships.
Normal Post Requirements
- Full Member Post Requirement: 40 Posts Per Month
- Ambassadorial Post Requirement:30 Posts Per Month
- Observatory Post Requirement:10 Posts Per Month
Average posts per day required in a 31 day month
(These are just averages, you wouldn't really have to post every day.)
With 40 posts a month you'd have to post 1 or 2 posts a day, so don't say that's a lot even though the number seems kind of daunting at first.
With 30 posts a month you'd have to post about one post a day.
With 10 posts a month you'd have to post about 2 times a week.
Probationary Post Requirements
- Full Member Post Requirement: 55 Posts Per Month
- Ambassadorial Post Requirement: 45 Posts Per Month
- Observatory Post Requirement: 25 Posts Per Month
Average posts per day required in a 31 day month
With 55 posts a month you'd have to post about 2 times a day on most days but some days you could get by with one.
With 45 posts a month you'd have to post about 1 time a day with 2 or 3 posts on the weekend days.
With 25 posts a month you'd have to post less than 1 time a day.
Obviously this isn't much to ask... I mean 1 or 2 posts a day isn't a lot. This isn't talking about city journal updates this is any post, from games to city journals, from replying to an information request to talking about current events. This law would really help our activity which is in a giant slump, when people come to our site... they see inactivity and that doesn't attract members. We need to get our activity up so we get our membership up.
*Members include only Full, Ambassadorial, and Observatory Members, not registered user.
