I am a member of 12 groups on this site. And a creator of 1. And going thru the groups I noticed a lot of old postings. And I noticed before posting this. The forum is guilty as well . Now granted, I had not participated in the other groups as much as I should.However That is no escuse for having old postings. And I can guess that there is A LOT of other groups have a lot of old postings as well.
Here is the breakdown in my circle of groups.
1 group 4yrs ago
6 groups 3 yrs ago
5 groups 2 yrs ago
The Forum 3 yrs ago.
My group.? Beer Brewers and Wine Makers.
I delete anything past 6 months old.
I challenge ALL Moderators and Creators of groups to be more involved .
Start deleting ALL Old Posts, Anything older than a year get rid of it.
I chose 6 months, However if anything needs re-posting I'll do it.
Just to keep MY group fresh

Tom === Thomas S. TierneyNov 4, 2013[quote]I totally agree with this post re groups which no longer seem to have any interest for members. Also the posts may not have any relevance. I contacted one telephone number re accommodation & it had closed 18 months ago. It's the same with many members. I was checking to see if any members locally would like to share motoring expenses to go on holiday. Lots of the ones I checked had not logged in for years. Does anybody agree that if Truenudists sent them an email confirming they wished to continue their membership it would bring the membership up to date.[/quote]I believe Truenudists.com should be allowed to run their business as they see fit. I have been a paying member here for several years. I do not care if others check in or go away. This site is a fun place to VISIT, but It IS NOT my life. Relax or click "Log Out"ReactReply - T=

DesertRatNov 5, 2013Although it's not a pet peeve of mine, I agree that everyone on the site should completely fill out their profile. This site is to get to know people and knowing their likes, dislikes, favorites in music, food and art go a long way to accomplishing that. IMHO there is really no need to see nude pictures of our nudist friends. I enjoy seeing the pictures of people enjoying their nude experiences and not pics of them flashing the camera.ReactReply - MEMemberNov 6, 2013[quote]Although it's not a pet peeve of mine, I agree that everyone on the site should completely fill out their profile.

ravensflyinnowNov 6, 2013Filling out a profile is only part of it...Being Certified with a picture of yourself..is much more credible. One member has claimed to have many profiles on here.. Anonymous, with profiles filled out. Men fill out profiles all the time, posing as women. A dirt bag can be an intelligent, eloquent writer, but they are still a dirtbag. There is no reason under the sun why one can't be certified. Any excuse is suspect. One doesn"t have to post their face in their profile pic, but one does need to show it to the site owners, to prove they are for real! Certify or shut the hell up!!ReactReply - MEMemberNov 7, 2013[quote]Filling out a profile is only part of it...Being Certified with a picture of yourself..is much more credible.

[/quote]Lol. Who claimed to have many profiles on here? That one should be flagged.
There are a number of reasons-very legitimate-credible- reasons why someone would not want to transmit their photo over the internet. This has been discussed many times over the years that I have been here.
One can provide clear indications of credibility through conduct if one conducts himself in a way that is consistent over time, that does not troll for pics and friends, that contributes in ways that are,,,hmmm,,,how to describe it...intelligent and eloquent, that avoids vulgarity and provokes thought, that does not sling unprovoked personal insults (go ahead,,,), that does not try to bully by telling others to shut up, and that not only discourages censorship but offers counterpoints that are---intelligent and eloquent.
What is a more credible illustration of a nudist-one who provides a time tested illustration of what's inside himself through thoughtful and courteous discussions, or simply a nude picture poolside, holding a can of beer and telling others to do it his way or 'shut the hell up' ? Who would be a more interesting companion around a campfire at DeAnza Springs to talk about whatever variety of subjects over the course of the evening?
Oh-Raven-how is one determined to be a dirtbag? What are the criteria?ReactReply - SO
SoupieNov 7, 2013Certification is an easy process that does not require any public display of nudism that is posted. So a persistent refusal on a site for "true nudists" to comply with such an easy process is suspect and does make one more suspect of being "a dirtbag". What exactly are you doing on this site if you do not have a verifiable identity? And how can one judge "conduct" without any said verifiable identity? Who is this person? A nameless, faceless avatar. It seems quite cowardly and suspicious.

Persistent demands to see one show nude pics is certainly suspect in a nudist venue. It seems to me that your account on TS would be more suited to that sort of venture. Of course, there is also an entire universe of sites dedicated to titillation. This is not one of them.
What is a 'dirtbag' ?
Conduct is a far better qualifier than a picture laying in bed trying to look seductive. Well, at least for the purposes of being someone who is in tune with the standards of the AANR or TNS. Conduct-like repeated shadowing of another for the purposes of personal insults, unwarranted attacks, attempts at discrediting without offering substance, and asking for pics is certainly an indication of character and credibility that is undesirable among True Nudists-certification or not.ReactReply - SO
SoupieNov 7, 2013My goodness Bruce! You just described your own behaviour. Including the shadowing and mindless attacks. Can you hear your own voice?
ReactReply - SO
SoupieNov 7, 2013And you continue with the delusion that I, or anybody else, wants to see your "pictures". I don't care if you have lady parts or male, but certification does make a difference, and you can't seem to acknowledge that. It has nothing to do with pictures on your profile.
