To avoid people that switch to read-only mode after getting the title and all the perks that come with it. No one likes those. And we aren't asking too much, it's just 2 useful posts per week, at least... can't take more than 30 minutes of your time.

What about members who simply are busy, thus they're limited to contribute to SB-I? Are they too demoted per the same clause? I would sincerely hope members were allowed to have breaks, such as 3-6 months and return back. In such a case, they ought to notify the staff so they're aware why they aren't active.

Though, I feel this would be better to discuss in a new thread.

Definitely. Many members have done that, and we acted accordingly.

[anon]

No need to worry about that. Nothing will happen to your account.
