I got a good one! 😀
How about an alert ⚠️ sent via the messaging system when someone new blacklists you. I mean... I can continue to click on my lil smiley face to check, but I dont always remember to do it daily. Don't have to include names just something like... "You've been blacklisted 😈"
How about dat?
May be he blacklisted you before I made it. So far I can see Skittles received a notification about some member blacklisting him, so it must be working.
With regard to the Evaluation Panel, is it necessary for the referring member to know the name of each member and how they vote?
As I said in the recent upload on my page, member BuckFizz contacted me directly regarding my vote on his referral. His referral indicated that the member uploaded "Z00 pictures". I suspected that he meant "Stolen/Internet" pictures because as I recall, there were commercial pictures of shemales on the accused page. I responded to BuckFizz and got a second message which had a butthurt tone about it. To make a long story short, I was blacklisted. Tonight, I see that AverageCouple appears to have been contacted because of the way they voted (see the SAY SOMETHING column, they spent points to call him a "child"). *Regarding BuckFizz's referral, I probably would not have voted to delete the member that posted shemale pics because he was not attempting to deceive anyone. And yes, there are a number of profiles that do post internet pictures and until there are SPECIFIC GUIDELINES that EVERY MEMBER must adhere to, I cannot, in good conscious, vote to delete members for that reason.
This isn't the first time I've been contacted because of my vote, I was contacted a couple of weeks ago by a member who referred someone for deletion because the member was using his pictures without his permission. The referred member was sending the guy "tribute" pictures. While some folks really like tributes, here is an instance where this guy did not. Although this member did not blacklist me, he gifted me the "pissing dog".
I'm not "ashamed" of the way I vote and I'm sure that I always provide a reason why the member should be deleted OR why the member should not be deleted, unlike many of the voting members who do not.
Perhaps you could modify what the reporting member sees by just eliminating the voting member's name.
It's fun to watch you suffer from the stupidity I suffered before I made the panel. But I did not make it just for my entertainment, I actually thought it would teach something to those who vote on the panel. But OK, from now on they won't receive names, it will say "a member".
Care to share what you feel is the lesson to be learned by the voting members is? In the situation of the member reporting another member for using and/or posting pictures of him, which turned out to be "tribute" pictures, one or two members actually voted to delete. In my opinion, sending a tribute picture is NOT grounds for deletion.

If it was, I'd be gone every other day. My question is, "why is the accused prevented from knowing his accuser?" What's more, if a member is going to be notified he has been blacklisted, shouldn't a member refered to the "committee" also be notified and given temp access to the complaint?
Because it would help fakers a lot while barely helping anyone honest.
By #601496 at 08,Oct,19 21:02
Well, since it seems the same 10 or so members are the ones that keep the site "HONEST", if you only use member numbers then by process of elimination, in no time, it's easy to know who voted for or against deletion.
By #551147 at 08,Oct,19 20:04
That sucks! I actually made a friend by knowing who. In my opinion, if you do it or say it, then gotdamn own it! I'm just a few months away from being able to participate and don't really get much of what your speaking about, but I stand on what I suggest. My
Maybe a 'Night Mode' or 'Dark Mode' option for the layout. Sometimes find the bright white background little sore on the eyes if use site in the evenings.
Perhaps there should be a category for TRIBUTES and/or COMPARISONS.
Currently, there is a picture uploaded in the "pussy" category of a SYD member paying homage to a SYC member. Why would he choose to upload under "pussy" instead of "dick" since it is 50/50? Hmmm....why not a TRIBUTE/COMPARISON category?
There are members that enjoy compassion type pics so they Photoshop their stuff with their friend's stuff. Hmmm....why not a TRIBUTE/COMPARISON category?
Actually, the TRIBUTE/COMPARISON category would work PERFECTLY for the members who enjoy posting pictures of their SYD/SYC friend(s) on their page, providing they have that friend's permission. --------------------------------------- added after 17 hours
And I thought my idea was a decent idea.
By #578610 at 24,Sep,19 12:59
If a person associates with asshats, eventually, he becomes one too. That's what has happened to me. The last few years I forgot why I joined SYC. It was because of the good people I met here. Sadly, I got too involved with the politics in the forums. It got so bad that I convinced friends to join so I could get more influence. I'd like to try to get back to just having chats with old friends. So, today, not because Admin asked me to (he did not), nor because a certain group of people complained (they did), I adviced my friend I would not need her help anymore. I will not rely on Charlie (WetNoodle), Gerome, or Mike anymore, either.
I'm removing all blocks from all asshats. You want to trash my pages, go right ahead. I'm not giving up my right to fight anyone who maligns me. Fair warning.
What I would like to see implemented is the "system" deducting 10 points from a member who has the ball and falls to pass the ball in the PLAY BALL! feature.
Well, yeah, I've noticed that there are clans, but clans that deliberately screw the PLAY BALL! feature. Tell me who they are, I wanna trash their page and smash 'em!
I'm not talking about leo, I'm talking that one should always consider that in any cooperative interaction (for example real life business) there may be people who intentionally ruin the process without any gain aside from moral satisfaction.
As for the penalty - I can't impose penalty on people who may not be even aware what they should do. I have no way of determining automatically if members do not pass the ball intentionally or because they did not notice it was passed to them or don't understand what it means. The game was not meant to be an endless automatic source of points for select few. It was meant as a little something to slightly increase engagement. If you pass a ball to someone you don't know, you may chat with them and explain and may be gain a new friend in the process. If you don't do that - don't complain about the outcome.
If admin isn’t going to boot every single sad fuck with multiple accounts on here; Skittles’ suggestion in my NEW IDEAS thread re branding a conspicuous mark on each of their pages saying MULTIPLE ACCOUNT / DUMMY PROFILE USER should be enacted! ASAP!
Some day some guy with plenty of smarts will explain to me the difference between being friends with 2 or 3 people and being friends with 2 or 3 accounts. The conversations are the same, the pics are different, and the only constant is the asshat that complains. --------------------------------------- added after 3 minutes
Thanks for the "single sad fuck" comment. When I stop and think about it, the whole site is populated with sad sacks trying to get wood here because they can't connect out there. All pervs.
Just my opinion, it would be nice if admin made it so that you can see all posts in YOUR thread even IF someone blacklisted you. Does my request make sense?
Technically, the one who blacklisted you should not be able to post in your thread. But since some members here are stuck at mental age of 14 y.o. they blacklist and unblacklist other members all the time. I should probably put a cooldown on it.
Still, it's not a big deal, I just did not think of it. So you now have it - you will see posts of other members in your own threads even if they blacklisted you. The posts of people whom you blacklisted will stay hidden though, since it's one of the points of blacklisting.
HEY, WITCH, THIS IS THE ORIGINAL ONE, AND IT'S ALL ME. EAT YOUR HEART OUT. I CAN STILL POSE FULL BODY AS OPPOSED TO FAT TITS.

I can' believe I'm agreeing with you, but, it does make sense, or sence as I call it. We can ask Admin. He's been very flexible with requests.

Well, when I fuck up, I fuck up. It was pointed out that I had uploaded a worked over internet pic. It was, and it still is in my PC, although I just moved it. My pics on my page are all of me or people I am friends with. I'm sorry for that. The coffee table I'm sitting in pose has a red table cloth. The other did to and I just assumed it was me.

Members can opt out if they don't want to play or don't understand the potential benefit or rules.

Put a limit on non-premium members who spam... that will shut that site limp Tescan up
By #569341 at 15,Sep,19 03:53
Off the top of my head:
I don’t think there are enough subtle cheap positive gifts. I reckon there should be a 10 or 20 point 👌🏼. I also think there should be a 100pt ‘peace pipe’ for when on-site conflicts come to a truce.
By #578610 at 15,Sep,19 10:59
Your gift ideas are nice. Cheap is good. I'm totally against negative gifts except those that express a feeling. The coward one is an example. The peace pipe is good.
Now, some conflicts end in a truce, some don't. There are occasions where the protagonists have an animosity towards each other that is unsurmoutable. At best, they can be civil for a few days. A cease fire of sorts. But, sooner than later, it's open warfare again. This should not surprise anyone.
What surprises me is how people present themselves in different parts of the site. In one forum thread they are friendly and supporting, in another thread they throw you under the bus. I'm never sure if they are trying to impress someone or they are natural backstabbers.
They are probably like that in real life but too chicken to do it face to face. Here, on site, they don't have to look you in the eye.
What do you think?

No adding pics to a member's favourites unless they have voted or commented on that pic,if someone thinks my pic is good enough to put in their favourites,they should at least show some appreciation....(not my idea,but a long time bugbear of a member here)
More points for reporting fakes
Site supporter medal(for those that have paid something to help support the site) like the verification tick....
Trophy hunting, collect all of them on site and get a prize..
Win potm, kotm,free contest, excitement game..
Gift bingo/lotto.....enter by paying points,admin sets the list of gifts in gift bingo,the first member to receive all the gifts on that list wins.....
Gifts-
Blank cheque/gift voucher-basically a points donation but in a gift,admin can set limits on the points allowed,so if you are verified,long time member etc,you can put so many points,if you are premium,you can put so many points on the voucher... --------------------------------------- added after 6 minutes
A section to get verified,(post a verification pic),and a place to leave verification requests..
Maybe a standard for verification needs to be set? --------------------------------------- added after 11 minutes
Excitement game-admin could throw some more points in the pot when people donate to that game....
If they donate, admin should bump that up...
More instant points features...(for us freeloaders)
Adding to favorites is appreciation by itself, so no.
I increased points for valid abuse reports to initial 50 (it was down to 20 because of Johns).
Blank cheque/gift voucher is a way to hoard points, so no.
The point of current verification system is that you verify people you know or at least pay attention to so that you can notice if something goes wrong with the account you verified. It's intentionally made so. I could make it half-automatic so that people upload pics into special form and I verify them personally, but it's impossible to remember so many people and if someone uploads one set of pics gets verified and then uploads other pics - it would be hard to notice. I could make it the way you suggest indeed, but from the voting process on abuse reports you should have figured out that there are people here who would vote yes to anything without giving it much thought. Verification is not worth much as it is, but in this case it would quite soon turn into complete farce.
But what if I don't want my pics in some favourite list?
I guess that's the issue really!!!
Having spoken to a few people,they don't like people just adding all their pics into a favourite list with no contact...
So while adding a pic to a favourite collection is appreciation, it's not always wanted...
Gift voucher,is something you would set limits on..
You can give that gift with a points donation attached ,that can be cashed in without you taking a cut.... that's more of the thinking..
So free membership would be 125 points max
Premium would be 200 max
Diamond 300 max
And no more than three cheques untile you have cashed in.
Points hoarding can be done hundreds of ways here,you know that, at least with a blank cheque you be able to see them quickly...just ideas..
And yeah,I get the point about verification,but sometimes asking so many people to verify you is a pain,so having a page where people can request verification would be a good thing I think...
Yeah I know people will verify anyone,some have low standards..
Maybe there should be a standard verification like other sites have...
You can have with verification-
Admin verified-basically paid members(you can use site supporter medal to do that maybe ?)
Member verified-free members
You seem to be misguided about conception of favorites. It is primarily for browsing convenience of the members who view other members pics, it was not even meant that you can see who added your pics to favorites, I added this feature because I was asked to, considering that it should help people to connect in some cases.
You do not want your pics to be in someone's favorites, so what are you going to do if that person saves your pic on their computer and has it there forever even if you delete it from the site? And this is what people more likely to do if I put some kind of restriction on favorites. The only difference is that you would not know who did it. This "it's ok if I don't know" approach does not seem particularly wise to me.
The only sane answer is - if you do not want people to do something with your images you better not post them at all.
Admin, with regard to fake profiles, it really ticks me off to see internet pictures posted that make it to the Popular page. I can think two profiles that post internet pictures and one of them actually has a picture that he has pinched from another member's page and has the cajones to display as if it is him. These members are and were premium paid therefore they do not go through the same referral process. It seems as if a member spends a bit of money, some rules don't apply.
I explained this many times. If someone pays for the service I apply the same rules as any paid hosting - i.e. if I don't get a legally accurate DMCA takedown complaint - I don't take it down. Trust me, if you buy a hosting from any hosting company and set up your own site with some pics - this is exactly how you will be treated. No one will check if your pics are taken from somewhere else, if you have rights for them or if they are within fair use doctrine. If you pay, you take responsibility to do that yourself. However, if legal complaint is received the hosting will take those pics down, and if the problem repeats - possibly your entire site too and refuse to service you further. And I do the same with paid members.
Sometimes if it's too obvious I can remove some images from paid accounts in respect for the spirit of the site without DMCA complaint. But mostly I will not. Those members rarely claim those are pics of themselves so they are not deceiving anyone nor doing identity theft, for some weird reason they like to collect pics from internet and show them here to others and willing pay for it - it's quite innocent comparing to what many others pull off here.
Your idea regarding a verification section, although I understand, I don't agree. Admin's tips to becoming verified is spelled out and he provides the list of people who can help any member with that endeavor.
I haven't verified a member in a long time although I was asked within the last month to verify a member. I simply asked him to post a verification picture on his page and let me know when it had been done. To date, there has not been a picture like that posted.
Being verified is a PRIVILEGE and should be something that members put some effort into rather than posting their image in a certain area or writing a blog requesting such.
To make sure that I know that I'm verifying someone legit, I have asked for specific things and given them a time frame. I'm not going to verify someone who takes 2 or 3 days to produce the picture that I requested.
On other sites,they have sections for verification requests,they get verified by members dedicated to verification,the pics stay in that section on display.
Cuz it's posted in a section it's seen by more people at once..rather than just posting a verification pic on your page or asking for it in a pm or blog...
I don't see too much privilege in being verified,I still get labelled fake...just much less than before I was verified.
Perhaps PRIVILEGE was the wrong choice of words but taking a picture while holding a sign with your screen name and posting it in a dedicated area hardly seems like you are investing much effort in the process.

All sound like decent ideas to me 👍👍👍🤝🥃. I’m not much for any games, but they seem to have been good for attracting and engaging others.
I’m not really a fan of the excitement thing at all - it just allows people to “like” without voting as they would’ve in the past.
Explain the voucher part, blue - i don’t quite get it? How does your idea differ from just donating points?
Voucher,is a gift donation,but straight points value attached to it,if you donate points a % is taken off like a tax....
And maybe admin should tweak the excitement game to make it cost points to vote ?so two points cost-one for the recipient and one for admin/excitement game pot?
All the games give people something to do.... only so many times you can throw the same generic comments at pics...
You could see all the drama... and more! It was awesome
By #569341 at 19,Sep,19 03:21
Yes to a, b, f 👍👍👍🤝🥃!!!
d - everyone knows my stance on blacklisting by now (it’s weak); but let the cowards have evidence on their page that shows that they blacklist and are weak.
e - don’t know about main chat; but if it didn’t chase people off the site, bring it back - if people want to fight publicly, better their than here.
f - have i ever been here for when logs were around? Fon’tknow what a log is, so can’t comment.
By #595788 at 17,Sep,19 06:57
Make a rule that every member has to post a pic of their dick at least once a month or else they’re out, or at least can’t look at any other members pages until they do. There still seem to be some members out there who haven’t posted anything, or haven’t posted for ages.

I could make it the way you suggest indeed, but from the voting process on abuse reports you should have figured out that there are people here who would vote yes to anything without giving it much thought. Verification is not worth much as it is, but in this case it would quite soon turn into complete farce.
I guess that's the issue really!!!
Having spoken to a few people,they don't like people just adding all their pics into a favourite list with no contact...
So while adding a pic to a favourite collection is appreciation, it's not always wanted...
Gift voucher,is something you would set limits on..
You can give that gift with a points donation attached ,that can be cashed in without you taking a cut.... that's more of the thinking..
So free membership would be 125 points max
Premium would be 200 max
Diamond 300 max
And no more than three cheques untile you have cashed in.
Points hoarding can be done hundreds of ways here,you know that, at least with a blank cheque you be able to see them quickly...just ideas..
And yeah,I get the point about verification,but sometimes asking so many people to verify you is a pain,so having a page where people can request verification would be a good thing I think...
Yeah I know people will verify anyone,some have low standards..
Maybe there should be a standard verification like other sites have...
You can have with verification-
Admin verified-basically paid members(you can use site supporter medal to do that maybe ?)
Member verified-free members
You do not want your pics to be in someone's favorites, so what are you going to do if that person saves your pic on their computer and has it there forever even if you delete it from the site? And this is what people more likely to do if I put some kind of restriction on favorites. The only difference is that you would not know who did it. This "it's ok if I don't know" approach does not seem particularly wise to me.
The only sane answer is - if you do not want people to do something with your images you better not post them at all.
Just ideas, favourite thing wasn't mine, just passing it along...you know,some people are scared to talk to you...
Sometimes if it's too obvious I can remove some images from paid accounts in respect for the spirit of the site without DMCA complaint. But mostly I will not. Those members rarely claim those are pics of themselves so they are not deceiving anyone nor doing identity theft, for some weird reason they like to collect pics from internet and show them here to others and willing pay for it - it's quite innocent comparing to what many others pull off here.
I haven't verified a member in a long time although I was asked within the last month to verify a member. I simply asked him to post a verification picture on his page and let me know when it had been done. To date, there has not been a picture like that posted.
Being verified is a PRIVILEGE and should be something that members put some effort into rather than posting their image in a certain area or writing a blog requesting such.
To make sure that I know that I'm verifying someone legit, I have asked for specific things and given them a time frame. I'm not going to verify someone who takes 2 or 3 days to produce the picture that I requested.
Cuz it's posted in a section it's seen by more people at once..rather than just posting a verification pic on your page or asking for it in a pm or blog...
I don't see too much privilege in being verified,I still get labelled fake...just much less than before I was verified.
I’m not really a fan of the excitement thing at all - it just allows people to “like” without voting as they would’ve in the past.
Explain the voucher part, blue - i don’t quite get it? How does your idea differ from just donating points?
And maybe admin should tweak the excitement game to make it cost points to vote ?so two points cost-one for the recipient and one for admin/excitement game pot?
All the games give people something to do.... only so many times you can throw the same generic comments at pics...
New membership levels.
Points to remove a ban— so gifts can be left. Spend x amount of points and the ban is useless for 24 hours.
Main chat returns - you need 500 points to use it
Logs - bring them back. Fun to read
Checkbox for admin’s indemnification. Click and enter at your peak risk
Show a warning on a members page if they are suspected of having more than one profile. This will piss off several here.
d - everyone knows my stance on blacklisting by now (it’s weak); but let the cowards have evidence on their page that shows that they blacklist and are weak.
e - don’t know about main chat; but if it didn’t chase people off the site, bring it back - if people want to fight publicly, better their than here.
f - have i ever been here for when logs were around? Fon’tknow what a log is, so can’t comment.
I want to be able to see the pages of the people who ban me..
Why ? Cuz fakes ban me and I can't report their pics....
