Hey. Damn right you haven't. So, check out global feed. See any spam?

The downside: If a user hasn't commented to the point of getting a hub wheel, or being promoted by an active user, they don't get to make a post. There's probably a happier medium in there.

There's no spam on global. Great! I'm just concerned about a member of over 2 years not being able to post. There is clearly room for improvement.

I'm on break for the next week so I decided to hop on here and there. I've got a trip report or two as well that I may put together soon.

Yep, we completely agree on that. Any thoughts on how to improve this? The original workaround was well, people will just promote users!

The more trip reports the better!

It would be pretty degrading to tell newcomers or current members that they have to comment on another's post for a promotion, but that's probably what I would have done if I was in the newcomer's situation.

In the case of a long-time user, I think the muting thing needs to have a time limit.
