User Permission Updates and Forum Changes

while i'm eager to be able to join the special groups and all of that. i don't really want to spam posts just to get access (with this tiny post as an exception ;) ).
i really want to contribute and be of some sort of help for people. share some of the long term experience from activity and losses that 36 years has given me.
so far this place seems decent enough of a forum :) just a bit sad i didn't find it sooner.

Zooville is what you make of it.

Come here looking for hook ups with easy women, you're in for a disappointment. Come here with the idea of being a part of the community, you'll be fine if you do that. There are a whole bunch of good people here, but also an endless stream of internet clowns of all shapes, sizes and flavors that cycle in and out through a revolving door.

It's easy enough to determine which is which, and who you commonly interact with tends to dictate your zooville experience.
 
I have no issue with lurkers/low volume posters expressing an opinion, especially in quiet conversation on a profile post. Good ideas can come from anywhere. That said the forum should be geared towards contributors and safety issues.
 
Well, a forum is about community so yeah… I was looking for a place to share and see what others shared, not a tube but a forum
 
Is it 20 from the change? Or more than 20 in total? I’ve hit 20, but still can DM. But before the change I had 15 roughly. So I’m assuming another 20 from the changes..
I hope this is an appropriate question to post here

-New accounts will be REQUIRED to make at minimum 20 forum posts in relevant sections (not fun and games) to gain access to the PM function. Not 20 new threads, but posts in threads. This is due to ongoing spam and harassment of newly made user accounts. Lurker accounts will NOT be able to PM until they have recieved atleast 20 forum posts.
Enabling PMs then may take up to 12 hours.

12hours? now we wait ig 🤷‍♀️
 
Darn going to be a lurker forever
Hang in there

<FWEEEEEEEP!> Personal foul - Excessive use of facts - Half the distance to the goal and loss of down!
You have the rights. I see the button to start conversation with you.

Just click in the user name, and in the openen information you should see:
"follow" "ignore" and "start conversation"

If you can not PM a partcular user, either that user does not reach the criteria yet... or has elected to block DM to him (um... *her*?)

In any case. Use the power wisely.
True

Very cute

Hello ZooVille!

I'm just giving everyone a heads up that the user privilege permissions have been updated on the forum, along with some other changes to the layout.

NEW User Permissions:

  • To be able to access PMs (Private Messages) you must now make at least 20 posts AND you must be a member for at least 30 days on the forum.
  • Further restrictions have also been applied to the PM + Pictures privilege. You must get 150 posts on the forum AND you must be a member for 60 days to be able to send pictures in PM.
  • Note: that if you do not meet these new requirements, you may lose access to the ability to send new PMs until you meet both thresholds.

PMs are not a right, they are a privilege that needs to be earned. While setting the bar to 10 posts did cut down on lurker spam, it's become obvious that it's too easy for people to spam 10 posts and then start breaking rules in PMs. While 20 is not a hard number of posts to reach, there's nothing that can be done to subvert father time. You must be patient.

Logged Out / Guest Forum Access:

  • The ability to read the forum while you are logged out as been revoked. You'll now see the forum categories, but they will all be set to private.
  • This excludes the "ZooVille - News and Announcements" section of the forum, which will still be visible to Guests / Logged Out users.
  • The ability to use the search function while a Guest / Logged Out has been revoked. Only members with a valid account may use the search function.
  • "ZooVille.org News and Announcements" has been renamed to "ZooVille - News and Announcements" this is because "ZooVille.org" is a locked domain, and I don't think the registrar is going to give it back to us. You may also notice that this section is it's own category now and no longer a part of the general section. This was the only way to unlock it for Guests / Logged Out users.

These changes are mainly due to privacy and user safety concerns. To view the forum you HAVE to be a member of the forum. Due to the nature of zoophilia and bestiality, and due to the fact that this is the largest forum about these topics, we believe having an account should be a bare minimum requirement.

Thank you for your understanding on the matter.

Another update: October 4th, 2025: Changes to Groups...

As of October 4th, 2025: The ability to create new groups in the social groups area of the forum has been disabled for all members. This is mainly because there's too many of them already, and our moderators are not able to effectively moderate them due to issues with the plug-in itself. The groups plug-in is, quite frankly, broken. If this update is reversed, I'll let everyone know. But for the time being you may join groups, leave groups, interact with groups, post threads, post photos, post events, etc. but you will not be able to create NEW groups.
Love the saftey of the new requirements but.. kinda sucks cause I dont think i have enough to send pics to me friends now 😕

So when you mean post does this mean replies to or do you need to make 20 individual forum posts?
