C'jais Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 My proposal for a new post count system. Your post count is replaced with the following: If you have from 1-100 posts, it says "newbie"/"green user"/ (or something like that). 100-1000, it says "veteran poster"/user/banana or whatever 1000-10000, it says "Master poster"/"overposter"/"forum monkey" etc 10000-?, it says "forum lord"/"forum master"/"spammer" or whatever. (the post count titles could be forum specific) Once you reach a 100 posts, you get a custom title. Bear in mind, those titles mentioned above are put in your Post count box, so it will not interfere with your actual title. Another option would be to remove post counts altogether. Anyone with or against me? Anyone thinking this could be done, or that it would be impossible to code? -C' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hannibal Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 I thought they already were forum specific. In LucasConsoles aren't they different than everywhere else. I think I remember they had it where you were game systems(Atari 2600, NES, etc...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C'jais Posted March 11, 2003 Author Share Posted March 11, 2003 Originally posted by Hannibal I thought they already were forum specific. Nono. I'm talking about making it a title in your "post count" area. It's not like it's gonna replace the actual title. Once again, bear in mind you'll get a custom title at 100 posts. Did I make it clear?

Wraith 8 Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 uhmmm... i agree with you that people are depending to much on the postcount and that it promotes spamming to get rid of the (sometimes anoying for some people) user titles. but i will tll you now.. it will never work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C'jais Posted March 11, 2003 Author Share Posted March 11, 2003 Originally posted by scabb Why? Because from what I've experienced, most users are spamming in order to reach the 1000 mark. It's all about that damn custom title from what I've learned, so if we hand it to the new users at a whopping 100 posts, they're less inclined to spam, and more inclined to post the good stuff. Then again, this is just me coming from Jk2.net - it might be completely different conditions where you're from. And to be fair, the "noob rush" has cooled off.

Bob Gnarly Posted March 12, 2003 Share Posted March 12, 2003 doesnt matter the regular custom titles are still preatty cool, like the ones at indyjones.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mex Posted March 12, 2003 Share Posted March 12, 2003 I don't mean to be rude KingPin, but has your teacher taught you captitals and spelling recently? I agree with this system Cjais, it would decrease spam alot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rogue Nine Posted March 12, 2003 Share Posted March 12, 2003 Let's play nice, kiddies. JKII is by far the most active forum. Places such as XWA and RSN where regular members have over 3000 posts, I don't think it really matters. We'll be getting a noob rush soon enough when Episode III comes out.
