(followed perhaps by me?) either way i dont mind, juding people on the quality of their posts is the best ofcourse, we are on a nintendo forums, lets follow their mantra of quality not quantity!allthough... i spose it could be held for a trial basis, and if the amount of spam shoots through the roof, then obviously get rid of them, if everything stays the same keep it? (hrmm when did PGC become a democracy?)

I got my first thousand posts at IGN in less than 4 weeks. I'm at about 1,800 on these boards so far.

We don't seem to have a problem with people being judged that particular way, so why not make another detail available? Just for those who are interested enough to look.
Of course, that's just my opinion.

I once posted over 5000 posts in a day.
Mind you that was in a specific place, and it was basically just a spamming contest. We didn't outright multiple post or anything, but our posts were all one line pieces of garbage that didn't really serve any point. On the last forum I was a regular at, I had over 7000 when I left after a year. Upon my exit, I requested my post count cut to zero though.
Post by: Hostile Creation on August 22, 2003, 09:35:12 PM
Nah, don't worry, I do to.I'm around 1,200 here. But I too would not mind if the posts stayed hidden (even though I just posted mine
). Having a date joined accessible, though, either in the profile or under the avatar, isn't unreasonable. It couldn't cause any sort of spam, though it could alter opinions. Well, whatever. Me do not mind either way, true?

I still think it would be a good idea to award a poster of the month just to set a good example for some of the newer guys, but hey, it is pretty obvious who the guys who know their stuff around here.
Post by: mouse_clicker on August 23, 2003, 08:46:17 AM
At IGN right now I'm closing in on 9,000 posts, but I haven't posted regularly there since they locked the boards last February. The only reason I'm able to post now, besides on the free boards, is because a guy I know there got a friend of his to buy me Insider for a year.
Should be running out soon, though.

this is a good idea that also ties into my other idea of user voted titles, either way im bored of PGC user, either let us vote for some for everyone else, or have you guys (the mods) asign us some

Post by: The Omen on October 21, 2003, 09:07:25 AM
I'm on another message board, and under your name, they put a little phrase based on a certain song of this particular artist. The newbies start off with something real obscure, and the real old time posters get a phrase with the hugest song or album made by that artist. This way, you never know how many posts, and some of the newbies get some real cool phrases, so theres no contest or bashing.
Example:
The_Omen
Yellow caped Mario
Mouse-clicker
Zora suit Link
ThePerm
Varia suit Samus( sorry, i know samus is a she, but the character is what i'm going for)
Newbie
Bob-bomb
And this can go with any characters in all the Nintendo games, so you'll virtually have thousands of choices. Maybe if the mods set their own parameters for when you reach a new level, then we wont know what it takes to move up.
Come on people, with some fine tuning, it can work!

I didn't make the list, crapmonkeys. Well, even though I haven't been on in awhile (less than 150 posts) I was here to see these forums hit 112 users, so
.<maturity>
Anyway, I'm glad post counts aren't public, but I do wish there was some sign of seniority, like 1st gen, 2nd gen, etc. Or maybe a good idea, as opposed to mine. I'll shut up now.

For posts, your experience goes up, and eventually your level.
Like they do in giveupalready.com/ that sort of idea.
That would be cool!

And a reward system like experience still has the ability to be abused.
What about a voting system, where people choose others (cannot vote for themselves) like the PGC Awards idea, and moderators select five or so and everyone who wants to can *cough*POLL*cough* and the top one or two gets to change their title.
It could be weekly, monthly, whatever. But I haven't seen it mentioned yet so I thought it could be useful!

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 .
Post by: Bill Aurion on December 09, 2003, 01:08:16 PM
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...

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.
Post by: Shift Key on December 10, 2003, 01:02:37 AM
QuoteWell are there any ideas or plans for rewards at all or is all this just a waste of typing and bandwidth?
There will be no rewards for post counts whatsoever.
Not to turn away the ideas, but it seems PGC has gone quiet on this issue.

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.

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