RULES ON HOW TO USE THIS HERD. PLEASE READ THIS FIRST!
1: Reserve your spot in the queue - Post something like "1 - t/p" or "thumbing then posting".
2: Thumb every post from the FRONT (page 1) to the BACK (last page). Do NOT thumb from the back to the front.
3: Do not thumb a user past 8 thumbs unless you really want to.
4: Delete the users spam (posts) who has reached 8 thumbs and then notify them via message.
5: Post in the "Cleared and Notified" thread who you have cleared and notified.
6: Post your spam (the remaining 29 posts - your first post is NOT a freebie).
7: In your 30th post also state who you have cleared and notified.
8: Finished. Just sit back and wait to be notified of your next turn. :)
Additional rules of usage and etiquette:
Only 1 (one) set of 30 posts in the herd at any one time for each member.
10 minutes. If the person with the spot reserved in front of you has taken longer than 10 minutes since their initial post reserving their spot in the queue you may overtake them in the queue to post your set of spam. The posts are time stamped so it is easy to see how long a user has been in the herd. Not everybody has all day to complete their set, and additionally, some users have slow connections. They do not wish to hold other people up, they just can't get through as quickly as others..
When you are first admitted to this herd please message me so I can give you herd leader status so you can delete posts if I have not already done so.
Do not accuse others of wrong doing. This herd is about sharing and helping each other to gather points. If there is a problem then please take it up with me, or message the person involved in a civilized manner. We may not all be adults here, but we will act as they do with courtesy and grace.
Maxed member policy: When a member maxes (10,000 thumbs) either giving or receiving then they are entitled to a set of 30 posts in their own thread. Name your thread something akin to "My maxed posts". A member gets to post a new set of 30 every time they max. These posts are never to be deleted. It would be great if ALL members of the herd thumbed all these maxed posts all of the time. Many maxed members give out 10,000 thumbs per day and have earned the right to their sets.
When a member maxes out please inform them and then delete their posts within the herd (not from their personal thread).
UTD markers are NOT allowed in this 30/8 herd. They simply cause a mess.
Please do not post gifts and emotions (faces) and the like in your set of 30. They just slow down the turnover of the herd. Leave that stuff for the discussion area.
