Low Quality Member Posts

[Shawn Gossman]

How often do you see members make low quality posts on your forum?

Does this sort of thing bother you at all? If not, why not? If yes, how so?

Do you take any sort of action against those who create low quality posts on your forum?

How can we as a forum admin whole prevent such content without being too intrusive or strict with our members?

Low-quality posts don’t bother me as a forum owner, especially since some topics don’t require long, in-depth responses—while others might only need a sentence or two.


I’d rather see users engaging and having a good time than impose strict requirements on post quality.

I agree with @Cpvr
I rather the user feel welcomed and enjoy the time spent on the forum.

Sometimes you might want get deep or long comments on some sections or topics, but you can always ask the user to do so on such areas, but not in the entire forum or always to be like that, it's not natural and users will feel pressured.

Low quality post bothers me only when it comes from someone who has received incentives, either through a paid posting deal or through the posting package or post exchange deal.

If I post exchange or pay for posts and they're low quality, then that bothers me. If people are posting low quality because they want their signature link all over, that gets on my nerves.

If it's a genuine member, it's not a big deal to me.

It really bothers me how people can be half hearted with conversations that they make low quality contributions to that conversation. No one forces them to join such conversations and the least they could do is to contribute meaningfully.

I only let certain user group to use signatures. Not all of my users have signature privileges (specially the new ones)

I like comprehensive conversation whether offline or online. When I post on social media platforms, I like to express myself and I wish everyone could get to do the same.

That is how discussions on topics can become much better. This is because making low-quality posts would make another member not know how to respond to you.
