    I'll be making a few changes to the forums in the upcoming days:
    • The forum will move locations, and will soon be found at Cancuncare Forum All links will be redirected automatically, most members probably wont even notice.
    • Some forum sections, individual posts, all member profiles and all photos will be blocked from being indexed in Google.
    • Page titles will be improved. You wont notice this while browsing the forum, but it will (should) improve our search engine traffic.
    • A small number of old threads (about 10-20) will be deleted. This may affect your post count if you posted in those threads.
    • All new photos submitted to the media page will be subject to admin approval prior to being published.
    The changes are intended to:
    • increase the amount of search engine traffic that is actually wanted, and eliminate the traffic that isnt. There might be a small dip in overall numbers in the short term.
    • keep photos compliant with our rules which are clearly defined on the upload page, but consistently ignored every day.
    • reduce the amount of useless pages in Google's index.
    • discourage those members who think the forum is about showing off their wife or seeking sexual partners.
    • reduce the amount of creepers and lurkers that the above attracts and encourages.
    Any questions please let me know below and I'll answer.

    Your business, your rules. It all looks like positive changes to me.

    @Steve Thanks for the heads-up and rationale for the changes
    Couple questions....
    - Please explain how the 'Ratings' system works and it's value/interpretation: e.g. " +473 / 2 "
    - Are any or similar changes coming to your Cancunswingers site as well?

    It's just the ratio of positive to negative feedback when other members 'rate' your posts.

    No changes planned. Cancunswingers had a revamp around this time last year.

    I have tried to be extra nice lately so I don’t pass Steve in negatives with his 27. :)

    But when you have opinions and aren’t afraid to share them in this politically correct world having 27 negatives isn’t necessarily a bad thing in my opinion.

    Edit: damn just realized I tied him at some point recently. Note there are some items that count towards negative that you wouldn’t expect like ‘optimistic’ I believe.

    Well, negative ratings aren't necessarily a reflection of someone disagreeing with a post, it could be a reflection of not liking the post content.

    For example, when I said Lollipop was leaving people may have disliked the post because they were sad she was leaving. Not that they disliked me reporting the news.

    Anyhow, I dont really take much notice of ratings myself.

    I was hoping you did take notice and you would be giving the first person to +5000 a free night in the penthouse. ;)

    I never really took note of the ratings, but there are some heavy hitters up there on the "most positive ratings". I must say I am pretty happy my humor competes with some of those smoking-hot lady pictures. I think I am actually going to attempt to one eye my camera on my upcoming trip and get more pictures of Elyse.

    In my attempt to make +5000 and get a free penthouse night (jk), here is literally the only half sexy one I can post from the last trip.

    (We did Star Trek on schoolgirl and nerd night)

    PS. Thank for continuing to maintain and improve the site @Steve!
