I feel it necessary with the growing number of VBSwaggerClub Members that something along the lines of a "Literacy Test," so to speak, should be implemented. Now when I say Literacy Test, I mean that one's previous posting would be examined as to sort out the spammers from the good quality posters we have here at VBSC. Now, I'm not saying we would instantly punish said "Spammers" but rather we might put them on some sort of probationary period, or subject them to some sort of "Literacy Test."

I propose that they would answer a few questions pertaining to what might be exactly, or pretty darn close to, proper sentence structuring.

Such as "Identify the Adjective in the following Sentence" or rather "Edit Several Past posts so as to change them from spam to quality posts, WITHOUT disrupting the next post's main idea."

Rofl. Supplements?

You make it sound as though swagger is a pill that you swallow.

Thanks none the less.

I think this is a great idea. Not only would it give the club a more "exclusive" feel since we would have better posters in our midst, it would also incourage new members/ spammer cyborgs to make better quality posts here and around the board, ultimately making visiting Vizzed a much more enjoyable experience.

Best Keep your concience as clean as you can, or charma will come with a blade in it's hand. It will strike all those who seek to gain without giving, and spare all of those who are weak and forgiving.

VERY GOOD! I love this shredknives. You are proving to have been the right choice for a mod spot here. Since it is your idea, I will let you lead it in any way you see fit, if you need any action out of me, please notify me.

I am willing to give everyone a chance, see this as the chance a spammer has to turn around. If this idea hits home and is a success, we will be a great service to Vizzed.

Aha, excellent idea for such a smart VSC moderator as yourself. This will most certainly keep unwanted pests and annoying spammers away from this marvelous creation called "Vizzed Swagger Corner"

I have approved the measure, and we have already tested it. The rule is that anybody who fails the literacy test should they be asked to take it by myself or shred, will be demoted immedietly to the lowest rank and receive a ban depending o how poorly they did on the test. It is not a hard test as I myself have looked at it. The average 13 year old could pass it easy.
