We need to have an anti-Ai mechanism because it is a pandemic right now in many forums. Check the resourcefulness of members before approving or rejecting them. The original admin rejected me over people who don't know what they are saying.
From a content writers' stand point:
Better pay. The pay rate was complete and utter garbage, particularly for those that make a living writing.
Better protection from hostile, even unhinged, forum owners. Generally speaking, many forum owners would rate fairly decently, but there were plenty of exceptions. One recurring phenomenon was angry and frustrated forum owners lashing out at writers. It got really nasty towards the end there.
Broadly speaking, a better mechanism, such as tiering, to reward excellent content writers for their work. The original system had something like that, but in practice, it didn't really matter: we're talking a few pennies difference, so not many writers, other than perfectionists, cared.
For forum owners:
Better quality content. By and large most posts were drivel. There were some "rock star" writers, and any forum owner worth his/her salt rewarded them, but most were sub-AI slop. As with the first bullet point above, you're just not going to get the highest quality writing from people being paid ~5¢/post.
More protections from disgruntled writer retaliation. There were a disturbing number of, well, nut cases that wrote there. If they felt slighted (real or imagined) by a board owner, they could and did a lot of damage.
Less dramatic than the last point, but still valid: making it less obvious there are paid-to-post members on board. At this juncture, a lot of forum goers are savvy and can pick out a fake immediately. It didn't help that most Loopers recycled the same username/avatar across all boards.
A system that actually works in launching a forum, rather than just a shower of low grade, uninteresting content.
Anyway, just some off the cuff thoughts to consider.

Thank you so much for your feedback. This will all be taken into consideration when developing the new platform for PostLoop :)
The obvious that they were paid posters is one we want to avoid at all costs, as we understand that it is important for community owners to get content that will, in turn, help their communities and not content that is forced just to be paid.
@Shortie I think that this version of PostLoop is great, especially since you are in charge of it 🙂👍 However, I would suggest you to add more sections in the forum. For example, sections such computers gaming, health, science, technology, online money making opportunities, real estate, travelling, etc. that would make this place much better! 🙂

Thank you so much for these suggestions :)
Feel free to add suggestions for new forums that you would like to be added to this forum here :)
We are always looking for feedback and suggestions to make this a place that you would want to be part of :) and of course, the more content we have, the better chance we have of finding potential writers for the PostLoop service :)

I have created a topic/thread in there. I really hope that Postloop would expand and create more sections. This would be a great thing to do. I reckon that Postloop has great potential and it will become a really successful project. 🙂 Postloop is already growing. 🙂
I will love to use this opportunity and thanks the post look crew for their effort,but regarding payment gateway I believe postloop should add direct bank transfer for Nigeria ,like what fecom does on trendri forum.
It's the only thing I will like to see here on postloop because Nigeria can't operate PayPal.

Adding multiple payment options is a great choice. I do not think that a payment option should be available for a specific country only. Payment methods like cryptocurrency can also be good as well. You can use cryptocurrency in many different countries as well.
Some forum owners were mean. I was rated 5 for a long time until I was brought down to 4 by some mean forum owners. The payment is related to ratings and they had no business to do that without any valid reason
Even sending them messages did not help. Suffice it to say however during the time I was there I had reasons to be contented otherwise.
