Doing a conga clear out tomorrow...

Emma · 14-02-11, 07:06 PM

and removing anyone who hasn't been active on eXceem for at least 4 weeks, and active means posting in threads, not just logging in and logging out again!

Cheers

suparuss · 15-02-11, 09:34 AM

Care to post your results? Just out of interest...

Emma · 15-02-11, 09:41 AM

You mean how many people I've removed?

**the_icks** · 15-02-11, 09:47 AM

any top spots available?

vster2010 · 15-02-11, 09:57 AM

does that mean whoever hasnt been active for 4 wks will be taken off the lists? and therefore, effectively, making the congas smaller in length?

Emma · 15-02-11, 10:15 AM

Yep to vster and icks - not finished yet!

Emma · 15-02-11, 10:55 AM

About 25 people removed, no top spots but a few 2nd spots on Kudos network congas.

Cheers

**the_icks** · 15-02-11, 11:44 AM

yeah, but such a long wait for offer credits (although to be fair, worldwinner is now 5 days)

firestarter · 21-02-11, 02:48 PM

Sorry, but I don't think this is particularly fair. I am an active member on exceem but I do not post too often, however I have logged more than once a month to keep updated. I joined the FJ gifts conga way back on 22-06-09 and my link was finally in the first post. It has now been removed. Now that I am aware that the rules have changed, surely you should give people a chance before removing them? I noticed shuaib was put back on for stating this, how is this fair on others? I have also been removed from the apple FJ conga.

Surely a better method would be to see how active they are/if they reply when it is time for their link to go up? I am subscribed to email updates and have visited the forum every time I received an email. Emma, I have sent you a PM regarding this yesterday, could you please get back to me asap?

Cheers

Surely Emma starting this thread was the perfect invitation for you to show you are active?

I personally believe that having congas is a great way to give something back to members who have something to offer the forum. Sure there are people on the congas who haven't posted in a while, but not even 1 post in a month isn't really contributing to the forum. I don't think it's fair if there are people who sign up just for the purpose of joining trades and congas, then never post again! (Not saying that's you) Obviously if there are extenuating circumstances for not posting then they would probably be considered. eXceem is a reasonable place!

Yeah I know what you are saying. Surely my post count shows that I haven't just posted a few posts then cleared off? I didn't sign up here just for congas, I like this website and community. I was under the impression that the rules were that you had to log on once a month to remain in the conga - I log on more than this anyway to view the website and 'I got my free item' sections. What I don't think is fair, is changing the rules then expecting people following the old rules to automatically know about them in the space of a day. Can we not have another chance please since one has been given to someone else in my position? Can I ask if you got my PM Emma?

What exactly are you saying thanks for ?

WaterPig · 19-06-11, 09:47 AM

This happened to me ages ago — I was busy with revision and didn't have time to post

And thus got kicked off a conga. Ah well, at least someone else benefitted from my green referral…

Thanks,
Barnaby
