Rankings...
« on: October 12, 2006, 07:49:42 PM »
I was just thinking; as most of the veterans of the site are in the 4000+ posts bracket or higher, is it possible to have some new ranks above Guru Meditator to aspire to?

Not really an important 'feature', I admit, but...

Tchaa !! You have far too much spare time Karlos  :lol:


The truly worrying thing is that I post here *far* less frequently than I used to, what with being permanently busy with work and stuff these days...

-edit-

Can you imagine if KennyR had never left? I bet his post count would have been close to wrapping whatever datatype is used in the schema back to zero :roflmao:

-/edit-

@X-Ray

Nice suggestions, but I reckon "Clockwork Parrot" has a better ring to it than "Mechanised Parrot".

Of course, it would be nifty if we could think of some more amiga related rankings :-D

Some silly examples:

RTG - Relatavistic TonGue
AGA - Always Gabbering Away
ECS - Ever Consider Silence?
OCS - Opinions Ceaslessly Spouted

Man, 9000 posts.. Thats more than 6 posts a day, every single day, since you first joined.


I never bothered to do the maths before. That's quite astonishing :-o

Still, I consider myself way behind KennyR in terms of posting frequency. I was still well behind him months after he left.

I dont think we should modify the existing ranks, people get used to them and many could get demoted. Adding newer ones at the high end is the way forward in my opinion ;-)

30,000+ posts -> For God's sake, get a job...
