User Ranks

What does everyone think the user ranks should be? and how many posts do you think you should have for each one.

Subject: Re: User Ranks Tue Sep 16, 2008 10:30 pm

250

500

1000

5000

and so on.....

Something like that? It's not hard to get 250 posts.

Do you need suggestions on names for them too? Like Pony, GT, Mach, Shelby, etc...

or maybe shifting gears..

250 = 1st gear poster
500 = 2nd gear poster
1000 = 3rd gear poster
5000 = 4th gear poster

or start out as 1st gear poster and when you hit 250 go to 2nd gear poster.. and so on.. and when you reach 5000+ posts... you're a 5th gear poster

10,000+ could be 6th gear *woot* Wink

I like the gears idea. I have never seen that before.

Subject: Re: User Ranks Wed Sep 17, 2008 3:33 pm

WOOT!

I think we should start out as 1st gear posters, and then work our way to a 6th gear poster. That would be sweet!

I changed that tonight. For now I made them a little lower though.

That's cool. Was only a suggestion anyway. As the site grows, you can modify it how you see fit

Subject: Re: User Ranks Thu Sep 18, 2008 12:04 pm

we could also give certain people nicknames

such as, bring it on

Subject: Re: User Ranks Tue Sep 23, 2008 1:48 pm

yea we can do that in the admin panel tim. Im thinking about increasing number of posts for certain ranks, people seem to be posting more than I thought they would right away. And i dont think people will like having their rank lowered. This is what i have right now.

1st Gear Poster 0
2nd Gear Poster 100
3rd Gear Poster 250
4th Gear Poster 500
5th Gear Poster 1000

Subject: Re: User Ranks Tue Sep 23, 2008 1:50 pm

Subject: Re: User Ranks Tue Sep 23, 2008 1:53 pm

im thinking this

100 2nd gear
500 3rd gear
1000 4th gear
5000 5th gear
10000 6th gear

Subject: Re: User Ranks Tue Sep 23, 2008 1:55 pm

i'm never gonna get to sixth gear lol, i've been on some sites for over a year and just broke 100 posts...=( guess i'm not a post whore

Subject: Re: User Ranks Tue Sep 23, 2008 1:56 pm

yea me too, i have been on stangnet and corral for year and are like 100-300 posts.

Subject: Re: User Ranks Tue Sep 23, 2008 1:59 pm

hey if you put in enough time maybe there can be something like honorary gears...1 1/2 gear lol

Subject: Re: User Ranks Tue Sep 23, 2008 2:00 pm

yea thats a good idea, do special rank and make it time ones, and i can just check like once a mo nth and give people it.

Subject: Re: User Ranks Tue Sep 23, 2008 2:06 pm

provided they are still active, not just sitting idle regestered but not contributing, i think it would work

Subject: Re: User Ranks Wed Sep 24, 2008 10:42 am

It really doesnt take too long to get posts in.

The other rankings are a good idea too.. let people know you appreciate them being here supporting the site.
