Dear Members
As all of us seen in the recent past that some gangadeshu's are using this reputable forum to express their filthy desires and trying to malign / undermine the reputation of this forum by creating p*rn related threads one after another in short span of duration after every few days although Mods later delete all this kind of threads but we need to take serious measures in this regard otherwise this forum will have no difference than Indian shitty forums.
I am suggesting few. Members are welcome to share their thoughts/suggestion.
- There should be some sort of verification upon joining the forum (and for Gangadeshu's they must need to upload recent 2 passport size photographs with attested copies of Aadhar Card).
- Must need to introduce Levels and set criteria for the new members to post their first thread and posting comments. For example New members (regardless of any country) should not be able to create first thread before reaching the 1000 posts and till 1001 posts they should not be able to share/upload any image or video by any means. Till 1,000 posts they should be restricted to only text based contribution to this forum.
- Mods and @WebMaster should evaluate the possibility to grant few rights to Analyst, Elite and senior members, for example, if 3 or more of them rate negative to any post or thread, then it should be hidden from public view and forward to the webmaster and Mods for their considerations.

I suggest that for some time the forum be made as invite only.
With this the forum will still get new members but at a slow pace. Only the members here be allowed to send out invites to ppl.
The invitations should be tracked...as in if a new member is invited the webmaster can see who invited that new member. So that the trolls that are already members here can't just use those invites to keep making new accounts for trolling. If a member sends out 3 invites...and all 3 of those troll accounts end up getting banned then that member who sent those invites out should also be banned.
This will give time for PDF to focus on its quality of members rather than quantity. Mods instead of having to play whack a mole with every new troll that pops up...can better spend that time moderating current forum members. With new accounts being invitation only and permanent bans being an option for repeated violations of forum rules...it would cut down the number of trolls on this forum...leaving only serious members.
Eventually the trolls that have been flocking to PDF will lose interest and turn their attention elsewhere...at some point the invitations only method can be terminated...resuming things back to normal.
Plz read my post again. It addresses that issue.There is no issue to have invitation based joining but issue is what if newly invited members posted the same ill minded graphic content which we are facing nowadays. Best solution is to have some checks on new members as I mentioned and further elaborated by dear @Xeson
Plz read my post again. It addresses that issue.
As for the checks like submitting some sort of identity like Aadhar card...no one is going to comply...including serious members.
The invitation based system would track who sent out the invitations. For example say I was a troll idiotic poster...acting as if everything is normal...and to troll I sent invites to create alternate accounts to troll with. Webby should be able to see that...with a strike system...3 strikes and u r out...it will take care of that. So if I created an alternate account and trolled...it will get banned(that's strike 1 against my main account that was used to send out the invite). If 2 more strikes like that(as in two more accounts that were invited by me) get banned...then my account(main account sending the invites) also gets banned.
Then I'm out of PDF...for good...unless some other member sends me an invite.
