  • Seed Swap Poll; rules for the Vine

    Just a poll to gauge Grapes' thoughts on the subject.

    We are thinking of setting some guideline limits to when a new member can effectively seed swap.

    Please vote on the poll, and make your comments here. The results will be taken to the next team meeting and some guidelines drawn up.

    None, anyone should be able to swap

    Just to be awkward I would have said 15 but that wasn't an option. I would remind people to check where the posts had been made though. All ten or 15 on the seed swap ain't good!

            Trouble is you can rack up 10 posts real fast in the 'Just for fun' thread.

            I'm the meanie that voted for 50 - you have to have contributed a little bit to the vine to rack up 50.

              You - be awkward - never!



              I think the 'check that all the posts aren't on the seed swap' with how to check someone's posts will definitely be on the guidance.

                  Agreed, but as Fi says above, I would check what their posts are and use my, erm, judgement

                      I guess the difficulty is that it might make a swapper less guarded about being scammed if they assumed that someone had 'passed a test'?

                      I voted for 10 posts, but I'm not really sure it'll make a difference...

                        My thoughts are that to have racked up 50 post you need to have entered into some discussion and put some effort in. I agree that passing a set post mark won't solve the problem, but surely it would put off the 1 post chancers.

                          Or the Zero post chancers; who launch straight in to PMs.

                          Even if having guidelines makes people think twice and do some research, then that's got to be a good thing.

                            I'm in the 50 camp - 10 posts is an easy "target" for someone to reach. 50 requires a bit more effort. To get something out - you have top put something in.

                            Might be worth stipulating that if you want seeds you have to send an SAE.

                            I know I can post for England, but 50 isn't that hard to reach is it - if you put your mind to it?
