Increased Efforts to Combat Abuse
PerfSpot is dedicated to providing a safe and friendly environment to all of our members. We are proud to say that this network is seen and used by people from all over the world, ages 13 to 107! Our dedicated customer support staff's number one task is to ensure that the less than 1% of abusive accounts are quickly isolated and removed. In addition to new, more powerful automated tools, many times it is reports from members that serve as our first line of defense. PerfSpot has added a number of new 'Report Abuse' button locations that allow members to report abuse directly to our staff. If you or anyone you know is ever harassed or offended by another PerfSpot member, please let us know!

You will find the " Report Abuse" option on all PerfBoard comments.



Launched Picture War
Since PerfSpot was launched almost a year ago, millions of pictures have been submitted by our members. We quickly realized we needed a fun and creative way to share some of these great images to all members! One of the most entertaining ways to view popular content is in the new Picture War section. Pictures from matching categories and similar popularity are matched head to head, you choose your favorite of the two, and then see the collective results of the thousands of members participating.

To submit your own pictures just click the "Upload" tab in the upper right corner of your page and be sure to select the "Submit to Perf Pictures" option to include your pictures in the Picture War.

To view the Picture War section, click the Pictures tab just below the PerfSpot logo then select "Picture War" from the sub navigation bar.



Created Profile Visit History
Each profile you visit is conveniently stored in your Profile Visit History. This section is a great way to navigate back to a profile you can't remember or haven't made friends with yet.

You will find your Profile Visit History in your PerfLife/private profile beneath the quick links under your profile picture.



Launched Public Picture Section
The power of PerfSpot lies in the collective energy of our rapidly expanding member base. When you upload pictures to your account, you now have the option to "Submit to Perf Pictures". By doing so, your pictures will be reviewed and posted in the newly redesigned Pictures Section. All visitors to PerfSpot will be able to view and rate your pictures with the most popular earning center stage on the Pictures homepage. You can be a PerfSpot Star!

Click the Pictures tab just below the PerfSpot logo to view picture submissions from your fellow PerfSpotters. To submit your own pictures just click the Upload tab in the upper right corner of the page.
