Looking to change user titles for TRF.

What does everyone think ?

I need some input for the titles and the amount of post required to get that title.

You all are asking, so give me some feedback. :comeandge

Mark, do you mean things like "Member", "Founder" and "Moderator"?

What about a progression like "ND Sub", "Sub Date" and "TT Sub". For banned members, we could use "Leopard Daytona". :chuckle:

Excellent idea, Mark. That is done at a large number of forums throughout the Net.

If it encourages JJ to post more then I vote no!!! :bullshit:

:justkiddi


That would be fine but please no Rolex related names.......I think it will confuse new members into thinking we own such watches when we may not.

Just my $0.02 Canadian......

I'm the admin of an MG forum. I use these:

Registered member
Bronze member
Silver member
Gold member
Platinum member

After a certain number of posts the members are allowed to change the title within their CP to whatever they want.

Let me ask a threshold question. Why?

Why do we need to distinguish? One of the things that I think makes this place so great is the sense of egalitarianism (that means equality for the neanderhals among you - and you know who you are, JJ :rofl: :rofl: ).

Seriously, though, why can't we just keep it as "members" and "mods". I admit we need to know who the mods are for contact and problem purposes, but is there really any need for a heirarchy?

Well got to agree with you on that part Ed, did not want to bring this up but remember the Easter eggs.Myself think we are OK as we are IMHO,it might start JJ posting Polls about polls,to get extra points.

I agree with Ed and Peter. We have mods and we have members. I don't see a reason to differentiate between the main body of posters. It would take a new guy a very short time to determine who the senior members are simply by reading how they are accepted and treated by the other members and they can always look at their post figures and see how many they have, as well.

I just think labeling people as "new", while boosting the the members with more time here by adding some level of seniority to them, alienates the new members and may, in some way, hold them back or even keep them from joining TRF and remaining lurkers.

I guess I'm of the old "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" mindset

Just MHO though :cheers:

The reason was ... someone asked.

Now my feelings on the subject aside from trying to listen to want our members want ....

I like it simple, that's why it is what it is.

Mark, you've created an amazing place here and we know how much of your time and effort it consumes. I just don't see much room for improvement here. As simple as it is, it just works :cheers: :cheers:

What a bunch of self-glorifying tossers you are! :rofl: :rofl: But to get back to the point: some forums award their most active members with a ranking it the title. JJ would thus become a supercalifragelisticexpealedotious member or something like that.
