A message to prospective members of this group

Prospective members
being denied ... This thread is intended for those members wishing
to join this group but are being denied, by me, for various
reasons.

The rules state clearly that BLANK, PRIVATE or MINIMALLY filled out
profiles will not be allowed to join. Posting
numerous pictures of yourself, you and your spouse are not enough
to join this group or any of the groups I moderate. Filling
out your profile is more important than pages of nude pictures.

Furthermore ... and this pertains to the male members here on TN;
if your profile contains pictures of yourself with an erection or
pictures focused on your penis ... I will NOT allow you to join
this group or any of the groups I moderate.

Thanks!

4X4 Off Road Nudists, Bathing outdoors, Camping in the Nude, Driving in the nude, Nudists who golf, Nudists who love wine ... I co-moderate a few others but not my groups so I can't make that policy.

well we have to agree. it is a shame that people don't read or understand a very plain statement. we encounter the same thing on most of our friend requests. we are nudists we are not swingers or into the lifestyle. that being said we will talk to anyone, but we are not interested in anything else.

Since this message went up here about 40% of the people requesting to join that I've seen have been under 50 (often well under) and had N/A in most, if not all, of the information categories on their profiles. There are many others who obviously don't read anything about the group(s) before clicking on 'Join Group'. I welcome the message being posted but its not made much difference to the numbers who have blank profiles or are '27', or similar.
Thought I'd mention this to illustrate my experience of helping administer the group.
Ages ago I got fed up with 'blanks' requesting friendship here and amended my profile to state that I wasn't into being friends with blanks, that I prefer actual true nudist friends. Amazingly that made a significant difference. I don't know why its so different with group membership. Any ideas?

Currently there are issues with TNs media servers - mediaconnect. There is a grey banner near the top of the page stating this.
While this problem exists it is difficult to administer membership applications and photos that are submitted to groups. I can't see the photo or a certain parts of profiles that are waiting for approval. I'll act on them asap when the media servers are working again, please accept my apologies if you are waiting to join the group or have submitted a photo.

It is perplexing. I also never understood men joining ladies groups nor the group owner allowing it.
