Quote from: smilodon;255815I have no idea how anyone would be able to monitor every poster on the forum and rate their contributions on a continuous basis so that the forum badge was awarded consistently and kept current unless we make it very exclusive. We've had 2612 posts so far this month. If someone wants to monitor that lot for quality then you have my total admiration :)

Good point. Well made :)

Quote from: smilodon;255815I always saw the forum badge as being something that went to 'content providers' rather than forum posters. It was for people who actually added stuff worth reading and that encouraged people to come here to read it. i never saw it as a badge for the rank and file. We have 170 odd active users and I imagined about a dozen or so would have the badge?

Forum posters are content providers. It's the quality of the content that I was hoping to be able to reward but, trust me, I do appreciate the logistical problem this would entail.

I think my idea of keeping ABC has merit but needs to be shelved for now. We'll push on with the badge system and see how things pan out.

First, discount anything I have posted. That'll trim it down a bit. Unless there is a 'top spammer's' badge in which case count me in. :woot2:

Quote from: BlueBall;255827What happened? TL was way ahead, has he deleted some of his posts? I thought he was near15k by now :blink:
I moved a batch of SOG ones out of circulation, so yes I probably lost a few thousand somewhere.  Gratz on taking the lead!

At the risk of sounding like a complete saddo with no life whatsoever, I have to say that I pretty much read every post posted on the forum. If they're in WoW or LFS I just skim them but 99% get read.

I hit new posts then expand them all into separate tabs so it's easy to do and read quickly.

From that it's pretty easy to tell who posts regularly and posts well. My idea was to offer up suggestions for people to Smilo (and you all) who can then hit their public profile/statistics and  see all their posts listed. That's then an easy way for people to make a judgement. Apart from that, you will know who is good within your individual sections.

You utter sad act. That's what comes of living in a road with no street lights and strange green carpets as far as the eye can see.  Igor you may flip the switch

RISK: Implies an element of chance. :g: No risk was taken as far as I could see. You ARE a complete saddo with no life whatsoever! :lmfao:
Now get your chaps on and go for a nice horseback ride. :)
