So, I had a long well thought out post typed up earlier explaining my position and how I plan to go forward.
So, I had a long well thought out post typed up earlier explaining my position and how I plan to go forward. For some reason Google wouldn't post it. I let the little spinning wheel turn, turn and turn for nearly an hour before finally refreshing the tab and losing everything.
Gah!
I can't recall the words or how I phrased everything, but the gist was this:
1 - Google changed their UI/UX for the Plus.
2 - In doing so, they messed with Profiles.
3 - Since this is a closed community where potential members have to be approved, the moderation staff generally peruse all the Profiles of potential members weeding out spammers, link dumpers and non motorcycle riders.
4 - The new [lack of] Profiles severely limits how we can determine the validity of Profiles.
5 - I was waiting for Google to sort out Profiles before verifying and admitting the "waiting list."
6 - We can't make them wait forever.
7 - So, We're going to start going through the waiting list and hope there is some way to keep spammy accounts to a minimum.
and
8 - If you see something that looks like spam, or otherwise breaking the community rules, don't hesitate to reach out to a moderator and let us know.
9 - If you want a moderator's cap, let me know. We can discuss it.
