I have never seen you go after a new guy or someone that you do not know which I appreciate. That being said when the new guy sees you guys going back and forth in reports the new guy might avoid positing a report so he isn't treated the same way. Those long W threads in the reports section hurt the site from a report encouragement perspective.

I do not want to kill the ability for people to reply to reports, I think that would also hurt the site but we can't keep going in the direction that we are going.

Is there any way to make it where certain people cant comment on a report? Like say you get an infraction 2 times for bashing or starting a fight just remove their privileges from commenting in the reports section for a month or something

Agree

This site has been up and down and bought and sold a few times since it's inception,
the same problems have been here since the start.
I have over the last 18 months asked a few guides and marinas to advertize and / or post on the site .But when they came here to look around, i got a Thanks but no thanks from all of them. The word i got from ALL OF THEM was . Most post turn into a joke ,a pissing match or some ones ego trip. In their opinion it would be a waste of their time.
I couldn't refute anything they said because it was true.
Hopefully things can change and the site can keep growing.

This is the part that our Problem Children don't get. Yes we are all adults here and should be able to police ourselves but time and time again certain individuals have proven they not have this ability.

This site is more stable from an ownership perspective right now than it ever has been in the past so that is a non issue. Also more thought (and money) goes back into this site now than it ever has before. I disagree with your up and down comment at least under my leadership but you can have your opinion. My consistency with infractions and decsions has been just that, consistent. Keep in mind I run three other businesses this being the smallest so I do not have all day to babysit people on here. I get no less than 20 PM's a day and I answer all of them no matter how inmaterial they may in fact be.

This is not a thread where I want to see people rant about the history of the site, that is the past. I want suggestions and I want to see people post reports, that's it.

Also if these "people" do not want to advertise with us or guides do not want to post that does not bother me. We grew at an 80% pace last year and we are adding 200+ members per month. We will pass Rodnreel.com as the number 2 site in the state later this year. SaltyCajun is far from "broken" but can be improved. If you think it is doom and gloom on here then you are very mistaken.

This is a great site that has helped alot of people I just want to see it get even better.

I agree also

I agree guys I want to keep the reports open but to do that I need your help as follows:

1) If you someone bash a report please report it so we can stop it and take action.

2) Post your own reports, we do not get enough reports on the site. If the number of reports does not pick up I can only assume it is due to our policy on reports so I will have to make a change to try and encourage more reports. Remember it is worth $30 SC cash towards free items.

3) Keep the fighting and insults down in the premium area, the open area is intended to be a fishing/hunting site.

I really enjoy the fishing reports especially those of Big Lake, because I can't make it down there as much and like to keep up with the action, however, I do more freshwater fishing since I live on Black River Lake, so I will start to post some reports from over here soon.

Do you have a moderating team on this site? One person cannot police this big of a site; way to much work. Perhaps have 2 mods per section that are logged on most of the day. Have an area for discussion that only mods have access to. Quick pulling of post and temp. baning of poster might help alleviate future problems...

We have 3 plus me and we are about to add a 4th that will be announced on Monday. Our new members are up 80% while we only added one mod last year. I agree we need more folks involved.
