I mean you've got it here in writing to the public, so that is pretty good. I'm a man of my word too, so that helps.

Guarantees are better. If you do your part, and we don't do ours - I could put a pair of skis on the line.

.Hugo.How could you not also throw in have a normal messaging box like on the regular site. The one big line of text thing sucks


Yes it does, this is linked to the fact that profiles still use the old super shitty version of our mobile site. The profile needs to be updated and then we're good to go. However, this is a decent amount of work.

How about this -

If you can not only be a good member for an entire month (which we're going to need corroborating evidence on) - but ALSO win MOTM. I'll give you the skis on top of finishing the features you suggested.

As I understand it, this is going down.

Here's the parameters -

1. Starting August 7th, 2014, El_Barto is going to become a 'nice, contributing member' for 30 days.

I'm going to go ahead and say that this means helpful threads, nice posts, elloquent responses and an overall exceptional member. I want all of you to keep your eyes out and report back if you see anything fishy.

2. The end date for this is 11:59EST, September 7th. One second past that and he can act however he wants.

3. Upon success, on the mobile site will be added ability to edit profile, View name change history and Feedback will be added within 15 days.

4. Failure on Newschoolers' part to do so will result in the sending of one pair of skis to El_Barto. Size will be chosen by him, but they will be new and of a brand of our choice.

5. Sending nasty PMs counts as a failure.

6. Using aliases to talk shit counts as a failure. (We will find you and we will publicly oust you)

7. If El_Barto somehow manages to both be a great member for the month, and win Member of the Month - he will be awarded the skis in addition to having his suggested features implemented.

So Barto - Challenge accepted?

Shit I'm 34 minutes late as of EST but could we throw in a taaaddd change to the mobile updates? Add videos to the list of things you can view on someone's profile!

As to Barto, this is merely a month challenge. I am in a boot from my injury and I get it off on the 7th as well.

Grab my hand, we'll do this together my friend

Wait, I want to clarify something on behalf of El_Barto.

Does this include cults? If he were to vent in a cult, would he be held accountable? Or is that a healthy outlet for pent up rage?

Definitely counts. All pages of this website count, aliases and any other attempt to circumvent the rules will result in an immediate loss.
