Black Posted October 20, 2001 Share Posted October 20, 2001 There are only 4 statuses: Monkey, Three Headed Monkey, Devil Skull, The Secret. Wouldn't it be cool if they invented some more statuses? I have some ideas For ordinary members: -"New Guy" for less than 10 posts. -"Slacker" for someone that didn't post any messages for a week. -"Most Active Member" for the person who posts the most messages in a week. -"Criminal" for someone that uses the most insults. -"Member" for a normal member. -"Enemy" for someone that uses more than 25 insulting words in a week. -"Smiley Member" for someone who uses the most smiles in the week. For moderators: -"The King" for ZeroXcape. -"Abusive" for very abusive moderators. -"Lazy" for lazy moderators. -"Moderator" for normal. -"The Best" for the best. -"Amateur" for the new mods. Do you have some ideas that you would like to share with the rest? ------------------ <IMG SRC="http://www.sonymusic.com/artists/MenInBlack/art/men.gif" border=0> I am just a freakment of your imagination!

Those are pretty much identical to the current MI Legend ranks alright. However, you can pick whatever text you want to go below your name in addition to the ranking. It's one thing I really like about the YaBB engine (what we use over at MI Legend), but it also has it's downsides. I like the current rankings here; you guys shouldn't worry about them too much. And Black, if you're not satisfied with the status quo at these forums, you could always make your own and run it anyway you want! ------------------ <A HREF="http://home.dal.net/metallus/index.htm" TARGET=_blank><IMG SRC="http://home.dal.net/metallus/images/art/metbanner.jpg" border=0> </A> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest grannen Posted October 22, 2001 Share Posted October 22, 2001 If there will be a change in ranking my suggestion is: 0 – 200 Monkey 200 – 1000 Three Headed Monkey 1000 - 2000 JoJo Jr 2000 - ? JoJo Sr That keeps track of the oldies. ------------------ <IMG SRC="http://www.grannen.com/Calvin.gif" border=0> <IMG SRC="http://www.grannen.com/Hobbes.gif" border=0> and Grannen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metallus Posted October 22, 2001 Share Posted October 22, 2001 I've long thought that rank should be by age (not actual age, I mean length of time spent on the board) instead of post numbers, or perhaps it should be a corellation between posts and time that the person existed on the board. I mean, some people will post 1000 times in a month just to get ahead in a board totally based on post numbers. I don't even know if it's possible to have a ranking system not based entirely on post numbers, but there are definitely flaws in that system if people just post crap and get bumped up in the ranks. ------------------ <A HREF="http://home.dal.net/metallus/index.htm" TARGET=_blank><IMG SRC="http://home.dal.net/metallus/images/art/metbanner.jpg" border=0> </A> [This message has been edited by Metallus (edited October 21, 2001).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest murta Posted October 22, 2001 Share Posted October 22, 2001 I think that's a pretty good idea Metallus.
