Most of the problem posts are from people who joined quite recently.

And from from other boards, regurgitate here by the gullible.

Seems to me TN would benefit from an affiliation with an established organization like AANR or TNS, a purging of inactive accounts and cleaning up the gallery. Since naturism is about being free, being certified and full frontal with face should be a requirement and non-issue. Generally suffering from a lack of legitimacy and leadership.

I agree with you, but sharing a scan of my driver's license is.

Respectfully, I just want to say I have a few ideas, but I am not saying they will work.

Here is what I think will work:

1. Make complete "real" Location (City or town, ADMIN. Division or State or Province area, then Nation Country Area) mandatory (for the immediate time now and forever)

2. Make it a paid website or lose the paywall, don't do the "little bit of paywall" attitude.

3. If making it a free website, so do not make anyone able to use the site unless proven 18 or up and certified by or "Digital ID" or with "Digitized ID" with a mandatory "location"

4. If making it a non-free only paid members paywalled website, mandate

A) All Users Pay and provide a billing address that is the only option for the location

B) mandate all users Get Certified

and

C) mandate that all certification either is by ID submitted by the users or some other form of ID so as to comply with regulations,

or else to go by the suggestion to get a substitute for Passport or Real ID either by

(a) not requiring Photo ID but other proof of age verification like providing a birth date and verifying it with cryptographic zero-knowledge proof, among other forms, including using Zilch framework for Zero-Knowledge proofs

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-knowledge_proof

or

(b) require some form of credit card verification system, such as entering credit card information.

I do not have all the answers, there are several alternatives to these ones that are out there. One could do Photo ID, one could try to do it without photo ID. Some ideas work better than others and it is not my job to decide these choices for the community.

I really wish websites like this could organize well and get rid of the trouble with bots. A site that works similar to this could help spread naturism and social nudism, but not many sites like this exist, and many of the ones that do do not have reach. If this site were to work and get popular, which has not happened, it would be good, but I do not see it happening nor attitudes changing as a result of increased awareness for naturism.

I just could only want for the fakes could just get flagged and blocked by existing users. People need to be aware of how to spot fakes in the mean time. It really saddens me that TN is getting run down right now.

I hope the moderators can listen, because a lot of us of us are bothered. I wish the Admins would listen too, but they must be so busy I think with different things other than listening to users. (trying not to say anything to get me in hot water.)

If you criticize someone's credentials or question their authenticity or call them a fake, you will be banned. Been there. A simple straight line purge of all members not logged in in 10 years and a lot of problems disappear.

How so?

yes this site is slowly dying

The chat room used to get into the 400s to 500s, and now it seldom gets above 350

Cleaning up this site would be so very easy, but it seems the owners have no interest in doing that.

I really enjoy this site and hate to see it in decline. Hope they decide to make this site good again.
I would love to help

YES this site NEEDS a major purge. All none lifetime paid members that havent logged in for 3 years should be deleted unless they are still paying monthly as well.

Would be so easy to start making this site good again.

This site has people listed who have not logged on for over 10 years or more. I complained that doing a search these ghosts appear and anyone who has not logged in in the past two years should be deleted . It seems that True want the 500,000 plus members for the masthead even though the majority have no logged in for yearsPerhaps I'm missing something, what difference does it make to you, me, or the man on the moon if there are members who have not logged on for years? I don't see how it effects me in the slightest way and I certainly don't care about the issue.Do I wish that 100% of the members were certified and paid? Absofreakinglutely! If everyone was paid, instead of being a freeloader, then the site owners would have the capital to invest in modernizing and improving the site. Requiring payment and certification would certainly eliminate the fakes.As an active, paid but not certified member, I believe that if certification is to be required there needs to be a route to certification that does not require uploading a copy of the front and back of your driver's license.I don't disagree, but how do we prove we are who we say and we are "of age" it is difficult without official documentation of some sort? They can't just take our word for it.Paying would help stop some fakes, certainly the bot generated accounts but not all, who would no doubt see the cost as investment against future income.If anyone has an idea how to prove age and identities without loading docs, please do say.Richie

I would rather upload my birth certificate than my driver's license.
