Curious how long it took some of you guys to become full members? I’ve posted on the forum several time but can’t really figure out what topics gets “likes”. Feedback or good advice would be appreciated!!!

What's in the bag threads are usually pretty popular, if you post pictures. We like the pictures of shiny objects. Also, posting in the How'd You Play thread people will give likes.

Have you posted a WITB with photos?

Post a round summary in how did you play.

If you practice, post what you practiced in the practice thread

Thinking about some new equipment post in the what equipment are you thinking about.

Did you buy anything golf related? Tell us in the what did you buy thread.

Those topics should get you to 15 likes pretty quickly.

And just like that you're a member!

Just stay involved, I can speak personally and attest to the process. Been a lurker for a year and started getting involved in January/February this year, Have enjoyed the back and forth and activity (COVID has definitely helped to escape and get involved) but now I am on page 4 for likes/reputation and testing Irons! Stay active!

Instead of specifically trying to increase the number of posts, trying to get "likes", why not just post in topics that interest you?  Write with some detail, use more than the minimum number of words required, engage in some back and forth, and let your personality show.  

In a way, this is like playing golf.  You can't hit individual shots while thinking about shooting 78.  You just have to hit each shot, and count 'em up at the end.

There are many discussions on many topics.  Join in the discussion.  People need to get to know you; same as in meeting people face-to-face, but we have to do it with just words, not actions.  I know it's a little intimidating at first; I was the same when I started.  As others have said, get involved and tell us about yourself and your game.  That's best said in the topics mentioned above.  Pictures are always popular, and help show that you have the skills and dedication to provide a quality review.

I will say that if the only reason you are posting is to get likes so you can enter testing opportunities, and once you become a member you quit posting except for those testing opportunities, your chances to test go down.  Staying involved in the community is certainly a factor in testing selection.

Be yourself and don't try too hard. Let it come naturally! 

You'll see some WITB posts just for the sake of it, no photos, no specs, etc. Nobody wants to see those.

Or questions that have been asked 20 times... instead of creating a new post, go to the thread and chime in. It'll be more helpful for all readers to have all the info in one place.

Believe it or not, even behind a keyboard and monitor, you can actually tell when people are genuinely interested or just doing it for the post count.

Also, don't be the guy that created 10 threads and 200 posts in 1 week and hasn't been online in 2 months.

Other than that, welcome to the forum and enjoy!

I've been here for quite a while. Maybe I don't pay attention, but I didn't even know there was such a thing as being a full member. What does that even mean? How long has this been a thing?...lol. What are the requirements to be a full member? Boy... the things you learn sometimes. 😅

Changes were made a month or so ago. Reading the first post in this thread should answer all your questions. You participate regularly so it really didn’t impact you.

Is it bad I had to google egalitarian lol? I have not been apart of something like this in years (military and large corporations) so I had to refresh my memory!

In my experience (which is limited compared to some but no longer a newbie) likes come from meaningful contributions rather than fly-by-night "I agree..." comments that don't add value to the conversation.
