Registration
Because of the adult nature of the site, and to protect member privacy,
registration is required to access our content, and share yours. You must
use a valid email address. You’ll be sent a confirmation email after
your registration is manually approved.
New Member Moderation
I want to maintain a friendly atmosphere here. I also want to keep
unsavory elements out. The registration form has an anti-spam measure
built in. As an extra layer of protection, your first few posts will
require moderator approval by me. Once I verify you’re human,
you’ll be granted standard access.
Please note, promotion to standard access is not instantaneous. The
system runs an hourly event that automatically promotes users who’ve
met the requisite post count.
Trophies
We have a trophy system that awards points and congratulates users for
reaching various milestones, like post count and reaction scores.
It’s a fun way to add a light gamification element to the board. The
complete list is on the board's Help section at the bottom.
User Title Ladder
We also have a user title ladder that assigns titles as your post count
rises. The more you post, the higher you’ll climb until you reach the
top. The titles are:
- 00 Posts: Shadow
- 10 Posts: Twilight
- 25 Posts: Dusk
- 35 Posts: Midnight
- 50 Posts: Three AM (named for what’s known as the “witching hour”)
Once you’ve posted 50 messages, you’ll earn a Custom Title trophy and be
allowed to create a custom user title. Otherwise, your title will remain
"Three AM".
