Member in good standing
By definition, What does a member in good standing imply? Is it a universal
definition, or one that changes with whomever defines it?
Is it a rhetorical question that cannot be answered?

It really depends on who I am with whether my member is in good standing.

I would guess good standing would be a member who's not troubling. I will be one to admit that I've had my conflict in the hobby, however I've tried to make mends so would that make me a good standing member or what that mark me for years to come?

Some folks have tons of rep, but are not really trusted and some folks that fly under the radar are golden when dropping a single word. Some follow the prevailing winds and some can weather any storm, it's a very interesting question Carlie.

Not necessarily. It's all about how that member gains YOUR trust. I'm a Houston mod, I've only met a select 3-4 gents in person and I trust them. but there are members who post some very useful stuff and although I never meet them they gain my trust by always providing useful information.
In Houston there was or is a mentality that since I have not met or hang out with a certain group of people I wasnt worthy or reputable enough to be a mod, but I see it different however. By not meeting other members for lunch, hanging out, etc etc i'm not easily swayed to think their way. I do shit the way i feel is right and if that gains a few members trust cool if not oh well.
So in answer to your question i think a member in good standing depends on your perception of what makes someone trustworthy.

I think everyone is pretty much aware whether they are in "good standing" or not.
On the site here
If you aren't a drama queen/king, don't cause the mods a lot of difficulty and stir up shit all the time with other members, and can follow the guidelines established; you are probably in good shape.
If you do, you know you do, and....well...then you are probably not in "good standing".
If you are in doubt, ask your local Mod!

In a generic sense, it is a moving target.......one persons "member in good standing" is another persons fucktard.
In a specific sense pertaining to access, it is a definition determined by those who control access.

*Chuckle*
Not exactly, we thought that perhaps we could help you, save you some of the mistakes we made over a decade ago. I've never asked or told anyone to thinck my way, only wanted them to actually thinck with some clarity. While it may not seem so this is meant with more than a little kindness.
If you can't see the board, can't identify the pieces or even understand the real rules of the game, it's kind of hard to be a respected referee, much less the good sheppard that is so often needed in this thing of ours.
What you don't know can hurt us and the ones that need you most of all. In time this will all become clear to you, perhaps that process has already started... No man is an Island.
