Control Panel changes

Ok, it took me a little while to figure it all out, but if you now login to your account (top left of the main page) and start looking around at your control panel, you will see new features.  There is both an internal private message system, as well as the ability to e-mail other members.  The memberlist link is at the top right of your control panel.  There is also an internal bulletin board system that you may use to post general messages that anyone can read on the bulletin board.  From now on, information like I am posting now will be done with internal communication and not be posted on the blog, so check your control panel on occasion for new developments and some beta testing that I may ask members to participate in.  You should consider updating your profiles, you can now add a picture and an avatar as well as a signature file.  As a member, you should also look at your settings and determine the permissions to be set.  You can decide if anyone can private message you, or e-mail you, and basically what access you want other members to have to you.  Your e-mail address is never shown if someone sends you an e-mail, but if you send an external e-mail through the system, the person that receives it will see your e-mail address.  Private messages are exactly that, they are internal and no information is given except the member’s screen name. 

There are 1100 like minded people that are active members of this blog, so I thought I would create a way for people to be able to communicate with each other privately.  NOW FOR THE BIG WARNING- I almost stopped blogging due to some of the bullshit spamming and other crap that was going on.  One thing that I have added to this system is some of the best “blacklisting” software money can buy.  If you start spamming the bulletin board, harassing other members, or generally just start acting like an idiot, you will be banned.  This is not just your username, not just your e-mail, but also your IP address.  This doesn’t mean that you will no longer be a member, my software makes it so you are automatically redirected to yahoo.com when you try to access my page.  So if you ever type in http://www.thespankingblog.com and end up at Yahoo, then you must have crossed the line in a very big way.  If anyone finds they are being harassed in any way, contact me immediately.  As a member, in your control panel you can ignore anyone, you can choose to never receive a single PM or e-mail, so take a look around and decide what settings are best for you.  For global problems you encounter in your control panel, post a bulletin, so I can respond in a way that everyone can read.  If you have an individual concern, just select “compose new message” in your Private Messages folder and input Michael Masterson as the recipient.  Please still post comments in the blog comments section and try not to overwhelm me with PM’s unless it is something that really needs my attention.  Thanks to all of my loyal members, this is step one in membership to this blog really having its privileges.  There is much more to come as this blog becomes more of a community and not just a place to read a pervert’s thoughts.  So get to work updating your profiles so we can get to know everyone better.

Cheers,
Michael Masterson
