Forum levels?

Post by demonofaj »

You think the forum can have some level thing...like I see on other forums below the username (Level 10- Pacman)...you think we can have somethign like that here, but more portable orientated? Like a Level 20 (max) being Heckendorn? Cool/Possible, or not? Personally, this is the first forum I was/am 'in to' and need some pseud-recognition, like a level under my name :P

Based on post-count? Meh, that's pretty cool, but it would be sweeter if we did it by portables/sweet mods completed, or general 1337ness of hacks. I know they're trying to set up a system for titles; would this be any different?

In phpBB, ranks can be set to special or by post-count. Senior Member is a special one, right now there are no post-count ones. All a post-count system would do is encourage Spammage.
Shhh! I'm not officially back yet.

Not necessarily. If you enforce the "no spamming" rules heavily enough (and ban outright spammers…), you can have a successful system going. However, I know m2k2 used to have a good system, and the webmaster removed it at the first mention of "how do I increase my rank?".
