Lost another one & I suspect many more in the future ...
I noticed my post count down this morning & started checking ... another long time member had deleted their account, groups and posts. They'd been here about 15 years, a great supporter of the site, nudism in general and many members along the way. They told lots of good stories, started many active groups, recounted varied adventures through the years and gave good advice to newbies. They were the picture book definition of a 'true nudist' in my opinion. They will be missed, much so ... though probably not a huge number will notice. Why would that be ... is an immediate thought that comes to my mind? Because ... this site is no longer centered around good times & adventures as a real nudist. It is experiencing slow exponential decay ... and there's not much that can be done except by the long absent TT crew and possibly a concerted effort by our dwindling nudist / naturist members. We're largely just watching. But, if you're really interested and concerned about this site becoming a multi-faceted sex (all types) hook up connection, just say a little something. Yep, give someone a gentle nudge towards TS or elsewhere. It's a big endeavor but I think it's worth it. Anybody with me or have any other ideas to contribute? Otherwise ... we're just heading towards the inevitable event horizon ... ughhhh. Not looking forward to that one. Please add your thoughts.
This nudist site has definitely seen a decline in the number of nudists here who corresponded on a weekly if not daily basis. We first joined this site in 2012 as non certified members when every member was allowed to post nude pictures and had numerous friend request from those who were prominently true nudists. Groups were more active in their posting of topics which lead to discussions about members nudist experiences following resort visits, non landed nudist club gatherings and social get togethers with nudist friends in the privacy of their own homes. Itd be great to to see things as they once were on this site again.
I agree with you I became a member to meet other people so I can meet and learn about the nudist lifestyle its said that True Nudist is going another direction letting non certified people on this site they should banned those people and if are not a certified member then you shouldnt be able to access others with fake accounts I delete friends request from non certified people lately I been logging off due to a lot of fake people and scammers I know that all nudist are not fake
The site should definitely be more restricted if you're not certified, for the certified and fully paid lifetime members we should have more privileges and this would help deter the fakes and frauds. Limit the chatroom to once a week unless certified, routinely ban uncertified after 1 hr on chat etc...
Only today i was asked for money to share a nude photograph, that's hardly the point of the site.
This is all off John's topic, people who go missing from the site, can be simply tiredness off TN and all its BS, or can be something more tragic.
I have had the pleasure to be able to chat with many fine people here since becoming a member. Been able to meet a few in person as well. But I am going to go out on a limb here and ask just how many of "us" supporters are also paying members? As a lifetime paid member i don't see any adds so I don't what that looks like, but I know it is not cheap to maintain a site. And I feel joining should be made a little harder. Just saying. And where would we go? Think ill send TN a check.
I agree with you, Heavy completely. You know as well as anyone what it costs to maintain a site. As for where to go, I'm currently a member of Barely ..., Naturist Hub and past member of Just Nudism; there are choices. I, too, would be willing and able to contribute (lifetime member) to TN but I at least want a occasional response to the many, many emails about taking over a group with a 'long gone' administrator and removal of the straight up porn shots that are found on the Feed everyday. It makes me feel like 'Sisyphus & his rock' with reporting & flagging the trash here. Maybe, TT (totally toothless) team will see this and make a small effort to reverse this trend. And you folks out there, please excuse me in advance. I intend to be a little more assertive with the "PM chat" and "cumonbi" and like wise $ex oriented chat participants. TS can use more members and I intend to start encouraging those folks to visit elsewhere. I would welcome & encourage fellow members to do the same. There's a reason my profile is, hopefully, set to Private now. For the record, my short Chat visit yesterday did not see an abundance of those folks. Maybe it's a trend. We'll see.

Has it been a while since you checked your post count?
Mine has not gone down recently, but did in late April.
I can only speak to our experience with the site, but others have probably felt the same way.
I gave up with TN because of all the fakes, fantasists and sexual deviants who constantly posted nonsense. By all means have your own kink, but this is the internet, there is a place for everything. Dont dress up (pun intended )your perversion as nudism. I left completely for about a year, then I logged back in to see if anything had changed.
Not surprisingly, it had not. Same garbage. I Ignored most of it, but had to comment on some of the misconceptions, misinformation and down right lies that were being posted about places I am very familiar with. Not that it would stop the rot, but I hope some people realise the truth when they read it.
The lack of any moderation on the forums and indifference of TT on many of the non nudist related topics does not endear the site to genuine nudist to invest in it with either time or money.
As for being certified. This means absolutely nothing other than you know how to take a selfie. It doesnt automatically make you a genuine nudist.
TN has the potential to be great, but its always been more interested in membership numbers than the quality of that membership.
