    Question Suggestion: VIP rank

    Hey guise,

    Just a suggestion to make a new rank called a VIP, this rank could be awarded to a forum member who reaches or exceeds 1500 post count, this can show other forum members that this member is well known amongst the JustCommodores community and is a valuable member. A custom colour of orange would be good to show their difference also. This would add a bit of colour to for forum and differentiate them from the crowd.

    What do yas think.

    i think 1500 posts is a stupid idea.. this just promotes spamming..

    i do agree with the idea of VIP tho... for certin members who've contributed for many years to the great cause of JC :P

    we all know JC is the only reason i still have a commodore

    I think the ranking of members is covered in the Executive - Belina - Calais.....

    I'm already a VIP to my dog, Pain in the neck to the missus, cash cow to the kids....

    O.k. how about this, a hall of fame type thing where a user has contributed alot of time and energy, helped out others when needed and generally been a positive influence on JC.

    You could gain eligibility at 1500 posts but then have to be voted by either the mods or all users?

    O.k. feel free to shoot holes in it now

    i reckon it would be fixed by changing the rep system a bit. the little green dots mean nothing unless someone bothers to hover the mouse over them to find out what rank it is. maybe keep the dots, but put the rank next to it if possible

    Ive been around like just after conception from what i remember, i find when point systems are in, it makes people sit there and count up the post they make just to get up there, We are here for posting about holden and our cars, not for the numbers next to our name.

    A hall of fame/VIPs sounds good, but then what will acount for that?

    The reputation system is flawed.

    and by flawed im mean a useless peice of ****....

    People can give rep for anything pretty much. No one is gonna ask to have stupid positve rep removed are they? no... I dont use the rep system, not because i have a bad rep, just cos its crap. HONEST CRAP. Its abused, its not moderted enough. CRAP.

    time for a new system.. not that other crap we had either... that was SUPER CRAP.

    But it makes it more fun, fun is what the internet is about. Also, somtimes it can encourage people with knowledge to post, I know sometimes I just CBF posting or answering someones plee. This way we can get moar information onto this forum. But from good also comes bad, with the event of unknowledgable people posting random crap to raise thier posts.

    No, the internet is for porn, everything else is just things to do in between porn (or while waiting for it to download )

    lol

    How do most other forums work the rankings? Our rep system is very flawed as said, and is largely a waste of time especially as many turn their rep off now.

    Gah, people with over 1500 posts and have been here and active for over 3 years should become black and gain access to the hidden porn section. Sounds good to me.

    I payed him enough so that i'd be the only black member. (lol, black member, get it)

    Which will probably increase depending on how much money i waste this week.
