Well what about the 5 star rating system that www.mariokartdoubledash.co.uk had . I think that would be great for people with less posts but intelligent things to say .

If you do decide to follow this , how about the person adds a comment on why he rated the certain person a 1 star . If its something like "you suck" then report it . I would explain better but im tired.

Anyway what do you guys think .

Not a chance...There would be people who would try and lower the scores of others...

I still say it should all be based on how long you've been a registered user, not the number of posts you've made or on the opinions of other users...

Why not give the older/really active...like everyday active users custom titles?

Awww, poor Hostile Creation......KnowsNothing, can you give him one of those cookies you always seem to have so many of?

Hostile Creation · « **Reply #57 on:** December 09, 2003, 04:40:28 PM »

That'd be nice

Thanks for caring, Ms. Pikmin.

That would not work cause people will begin to spam threads for extra posts . I say my idea is best , what Bill said is true but what if , when you rate someone you send it through to the mods or something with a reason why that person deserves 5 stars or what he did to get 1 stars.

There will be no rewards for post counts whatsoever.

Well are there any ideas or plans for rewards at all or is all this just a waste of typing and bandwidth?

Not to turn away the ideas, but it seems PGC has gone quiet on this issue.

akdaman1 · « **Reply #62 on:** December 10, 2003, 01:53:20 PM »

Well I still believe the mkdd system is good but when you rate someone you add a reason why they rule or suck ...

manunited4eva22 · « **Reply #63 on:** December 10, 2003, 03:59:45 PM »

I think I have one of the lowest post counts of non moderators. I am sure I am lower than practically everyone who has been around for more than 3 months. I mean honestly, I had this count in 2 months at the ezboard forums...

I honestly think post counts should never be factored as proof of anything. I really don't even think rankings matter. I mean when I go through the forums, I will either say, oh great, lets just skip him, or god why cant he die? but if you respect that persons posts, you recognize their name. If a noob lacks common sense and can't decide who is posting what is basically good information, then they wont last long without getting banned. It's a sad fact but it's true. Just let nature work its magic.

Hostile Creation · « **Reply #64 on:** December 10, 2003, 04:30:01 PM »

I'm not fond of rankings at all, either, but I think custom titles would be great if we could get them. Only problem is that the titles are the only way to recognize that an admin or staff member is talking. But don't matter none to me; I'm more than happy with these forums as they are.

akdaman1 · « **Reply #65 on:** December 10, 2003, 05:30:03 PM »

How about cool people like me and my toe get custom titles ?

Swordsplay · « **Reply #66 on:** December 15, 2003, 05:06:28 AM »

instead of a ranking, just put the number of posts under the members name. How about that? Or is that considered "ranking"?

manunited4eva22 · « **Reply #67 on:** December 15, 2003, 11:14:15 AM »

Well considering it would encourage spam....not going to happen.

vudu · « **Reply #68 on:** December 15, 2003, 11:38:57 AM »

also, considering swordsplay is one of the largest spammers on the board, that might not be such a hot idea.

Hah hah. It is, but it's intentionally turned off for normal users for just the reasons listed above.

Plugabugz · « **Reply #70 on:** December 16, 2003, 01:00:43 AM »

How about a giant cookie for all the mods/admins to signify that we are merely "people"?

CardBoardBox · « **Reply #71 on:** December 17, 2003, 12:54:06 PM »

OR you could just give one to a random person every month...or something...but random=no spam

Hostile Creation · « **Reply #72 on:** December 17, 2003, 02:43:10 PM »

Or the coolest=no spam, too. . . though that'd be boring, because I'd get it every month.

oohhboy · « **Reply #73 on:** December 18, 2003, 02:23:41 AM »

Don't people know that respect is an intangable thing? Numbers and rewards do not amount to respect. Niether does medals on your chest matter. I mean look who they are giving MBEs to these days.

manunited4eva22 · « **Reply #74 on:** December 18, 2003, 01:22:10 PM »

All I know is that dictators have many many medals that mean nothing. Hmmmm, I wonder if we could ever talk Rick into taking a picture decked out in his former nazi /communist/bad person medals. I mean, he is like the most infamous dictator since......the nights who say nee.
