Lately there have been several posts from a handful of users hellbent on spreading false propaganda about how WebFlake Staff manages and moderates this community. Most of the posts all follow the same rhetoric.. "WebFlake is ruled with an iron fist", "Nobody likes X Staff member", or the popular shtick of today's society: "freedom from oppression". When did WebFlake become Cold War Soviet Russia, Somalia, or North Korea? I'm going to address the most common complaints, and clear the air. Warnings / Suspensions / Bans When a user is warned, suspended or banned.. they have access to the reason why. Either by notification, email, or the No Permission page presented to you when logging into the site. Warnings do not go away, points are not removed, and only serve as a reminder to not commit the same violation (or any others) again. Suspensions are often handed out to users who frequently violate our guidelines, or simply ignore our warnings. Occasionally, if the action is severe enough, we will suspend a user without warning (i.e. if the user spams vulgarities repeatedly, uses racial slurs, etc). Bans are doled out to habitual offenders, spammers, leechers, and duplicate accounts. If you have questions on what actions may lead to these forms of moderation, or how we utilize them, feel free to PM me directly for clarification. One member PM'ed me earlier this evening to ask what the difference is between Head Moderators and Moderators.. I was happy to oblige. Alleged "Oppression" This is really just a cry for attention people. No one is being oppressed, you're simply confusing your dislike for our guidelines with real-world problems that millions suffer from every day. Not being able to sell ripped skins or request content via PM does not make you "oppressed". We put these guidelines in place for the best interest of everyone in the community, not just a few that we allegedly hate so much that we are trying to ruin their lives... (notice the dramatics?). We're always open to suggestions on altering our guidelines, but don't expect making a spectacle of your topic will bring the change you seek. All of these theatrics as of late are downright annoying and immature. Anonymous isn't going to bring us to our knees, and you won't rally thousands of members for your ridiculous "cause". We are a file sharing community, powered by our donators, and managed by volunteer Staff. Complaints against Staff I was not-so-politely informed tonight that I am apparently "hated" and many people have grudges against me. It's true. I have a long line of haters and wannabes, and an even longer line of critics. It's something I've learned to tolerate a long time ago as a game developer. If you have a legitimate complaint about how I moderate on this site, feel free to send a Private Message to Phun, who will be glad to review the complaint. The reality is though, that 95% of the users who already sent complaints are vulgar, belligerent, and hateful users who just wanted to complain. The other 5% are bandwagon users who see one user complain and promptly join in on the fun. Whatever the case, instead of whining publicly, contact Phun.. or, send me a direct message and we can talk about it. As for other Staff, you're welcome to send complaints to Phun or myself about Moderators. Can't say I've gotten one worth reading however. Membership on WebFlake When using this site, you accept the fact that your membership here can end at any given time with or without prior notice, either by your own choice or that of a WebFlake Staff member. There are no guarantees of "privacy" on a private domain, nor are we obligated to allow you to use this site any more than you are obligated to be here. If you do not like our guidelines or our moderation, you are free to seek out a new community. We will wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors. In short, we're not a community for troll fodder or shenanigans. People come here to share and download files, offer and hire services, and get a running start on becoming a webmaster without the ridiculous fees most software developers charge for the content. I can't possibly fathom why some users take it upon themselves to make this community into a Broadway drama, instead of simply familiarizing themselves with our guidelines and having a good time here. There is much to learn, many files to be had, and ample friends to make throughout WebFlake. If you have a penchant for drama, rest assured, it won't be tolerated here.

Just wanted to hop in and say that i really appreciate this post, davlin. Also thanks for the feedback Justin.

Being a former administrator here, I know it's impossible to please everyone all the time. I was hated by some too but, had a job to do. The rules and guidelines were set up by Phun and every staff member did/does their best to see that they were followed. Trying to be a little lenient only brings on more and more violations which lead to a lot of good members leaving due to the immaturity of others. I've seen this happen too many times on IPBCore/ForumCore/WebFlake. These "drama queen" members add nothing but animosity and have no place here or on any forum. As I said many times before, if you don't like the rules here, leave. No one forces you to stay and all the hateful posts will not get you anywhere.

No you shouldn't have any issues unless something calls to that exact field that you removed which shouldn't

BEWARE OF MANY DOGS! Haha. Spartacus: Sophie (Spartacus's Daughter): Joe & Elimae: Josie (Joe & Elimae's Daughter): Oliver:

In the code find <if test="membertitle:|:$author['member_title']"> <li>{$author['member_title']}</li> </if>in the database find the table pfields_content and browse ir using phpmyadmin. Find the column field_?? that has the data you want displayed. then replace the above find with this <php>$member = IPSMember::load( $author['author_id'], 'all' );</php><p class='desc member_title'>{$member['field_1']}</p>Remember field_1 should be the column name of where the data is stored in the table.

could you provide a link to you're website or at-least a screenshot? I have sort of a clue of what you are trying to do, but need to fully understand and to see which skin you are using, and what is the custom field?

In Getting to Know SEO, content analyst and SEO expert Andre Kibbe gives you a solid grasp of what SEO is all about, and how it can help you generate steady and sustainable traffic to your site or product. Search Engine Optimization, or SEO , is one of the most powerful tools you can use to get traffic to your (or your client’s) website. As you progress through the book, you’ll learn about structuring a website for SEO , the importance of keywords, research and strategy, link building, and understanding backlinks. By the time you reach the final page, you’ll be equipped to use SEO personally and professionally to give your websites an edge against the competition. What the book covers… Content + Links = SEO: The particulars of SEO might change from moment to moment, but the two pillars of SEO —content and links—remain unchanged. We’ll discuss how the content on your web pages need to closely match what is being typed into a search engine, meaning that it needs to have “relevancy”. More importantly, it needs to have links from other websites to be recognized as an authority source, which give the content “authority”. Authority depends on the number of links received and the text used in those links. The Importance of Keywords: The biggest flaw in the “just write good content” argument from an SEO perspective is writers’ frequent misunderstanding of how search engines recognize content, which often requires more literal wording to be indexed under a particular search term. You’ll learn how a few simple changes in the wording of your page copy to focus on keywords (the phrases people type into search engines) can have dramatic effects on search engine rankings. Keyword Research Explained: Once the effects of keywords choices are understood, you need a strategy for picking out better keywords. We’ll take a look at the Google AdWords Keyword Tool, used to generate and compare hundreds of keyword ideas by showing you their search frequency and cost-per-click (CPC). On-Page Optimization: By learning a handful of simple HTML concepts, you’ll understand how to optimize your web pages for search engines. On-page SEO involves placement of keywords in certain HTML elements: the title tag, the meta description tag, the anchor text used in links, the alt-text used in photos, and so on. Understanding Backlinks: Due to Google’s revolutionary PageRank algorithm, links unquestionably play the most important role in a web page’s position in search engines. You’ll learn the main factors that determine the quantity and quality of the links you can attract naturally, and the ones that can be built… less naturally. Getting Links: Link building is the hardest part of SEO . We’ll take a look at some of the safest and most reliable techniques for getting links. Understanding Competition: Some market niches are more competitive than others, and within a particular niche, some keywords are more competitive than others. Evaluating the competitiveness of the keywords you’re planning to target is critical. Competitive analysis will show you how to find keywords that you can rank for in a couple of weeks, rather than several months. You’ll find other keywords that, however seductive, are simply too competitive to spend time targeting. Sharpening the Saw: As mentioned, SEO is a rapidly changing field due to Google’s frequent algorithm updates. We’ll take a look at a handful of highly respected websites that provide great information on current best practices.

The 'hate' comes with the job, but you may find it's spite more than hate. Only guarantee of privacy is an SSL. A good one. I don't understand why people hate the staff, imho, if you hate the staff, you hate the people who run WF - who keep it secure, friendly and fun (phun) for everyone. I think the "Drama Queen" is bored and has no other place to strike or feel better than themselves than here, creating problems. Phun, Care package bagel sandwiches.

I appreciate the input as always, Justin. As a Head Mod, I handle most of the banning and suspensions, and review issues our Moderators submit to me for further review. We have a capable team, but I get most of the dirty work. In regards to leniency, you and I obviously followed the same path. I used to issue warnings without points, but that leniency has been taken advantage of one too many times, so I do everything by the book nowadays.
