Member Ranking Idea
« on: May 20, 2005, 04:58:52 AM »
What about this (colored star next to the user name in posts):

Green Star = 100 post count
Bronze Star = 500 post count
Gold Star = 1000 post count
Platinum Star = 2500+ post count

I think it would be a good idea to incorporate some sort of system to reward the long-standing members that contribute on a daily (weekly) basis.

How MANY users would POST to EVERY topic JUST to raise their COUNT?

Yeah, how very true.

Eh, I don't think it's a good idea.  That would give new users the impression that I'm one of the best posters, and that's definitely NOT close to the truth at all.  Most of the "great" posters have about 1000 posts.

Hey, since they list YOUR reviews, how about listing YOUR POSTS as well in the info column....beats trying to go looking for them. Just an idea as well.

Uh, because that would be a lot for a bunch of people.  Besides, it works just as well to simply do a search and put your name in the "find posts by" spot...

Stan,

Consider all the ramifications of the work invovled for ALL parties and the websmaster and the utility of what the final result will be (NOT what you want it to be).

I see tons of work and little meaningful results.
