Haha yes I've hung out doing photography with Tom years ago and had new years dinner. He got pretty dang good at photography but haven't followe much of what he's been doing recently.
In any case it would be nice to have more tools to view the posts of your referrals which we have a link to that in referral page however how not sure how well it scales when you have hundreds of referrals.
I should've maybe just included it in the post the way I was envisioning it, but here goes, which would maybe scale as well.
so basically like this, making life easier for the Toms of Hive to track down more likely legit newcomers and checking out their first post/first comments and guiding them. With additional options like, only displaying the first 3 posts of said users, or 5 or 1 depending on the viewers preferences on the site, being able to remove some referrers from viewing their accounts on their list, and the list would just be updated with recent post/comment when you refresh. They could easily click the peakd link and if someone else has already been there and offered help/guidance they'd move on to the next one.
I think it should be pretty scalable, especially with more filtering options for each user in the future if the need be.
