Posting and ranking.

Post by Baby Bear »

I gave a lot of thought about this and I wanted to suggest that all of the warrior rankings can post as many times as they want and for the people that are in other rankings such as Orphan, Hi-hat,Rogue.etc. Will still have to make 5 post until the reach a warrior rank.

Im just like cyrus making a change and wants to make a differance.


And im pretty sure u want alot of people to keep this website alive so let them post as many times as they want when they reach warrior rank. Trust me I've seen a site like this called resident evil t-virus lab and :cry: its just a shame that site is dead.

that isn't fair to those who don't have the warrior rank but are very good posters. WC wants to keep this place fair. the five post limit isn't something to punish us. could you imagine how much bandwidth this would take up if everyone who is a Warrior rank posted as much as they want to every single day? WC would probably go bankrupt.

You can get a warrior rank in less than eight weeks.  over 1000 members posting as much as they like.  I dread the thought.  Apart from the drop in quality of posts that would cause, when exactly would we find time to read everything???  My beards going grey just thinking about it.  Things are fine just the way it is.

:shock: Eight Weeks! People post way too much here. By the time I was excatly one year on this site. I only had 500 posts. And there are some people who are even less than that. Some people post 5 posts every single day. Where others might post a couple times a month.

I know other sites that are even less that that. One site has 1 post a day! It increases post quality, so instead of 5 posts that are like 'yeah, he is awsome' there are posts that are about 50-100 words.

Ive been registered a year and ive not yet reached the 200 mark.  Even if i included the posts made as a guest, i still wouldnt be near warrior rank.  Not that its really important.

What ever happened to the 5 word minium rule?

I know man. I hate it when people just post a few words. Like when one person points somethin out, a hundred people will post a couple words to agree with him.

Even now. Some people are using all 5 posts a day to just posts in the Fan Fiction section. One person will post "Good Job" in 5 different topics. It ruins our forum when people act like that.

It's something we are aware of as there is a spate of it going around at the moment. We did have a system whereby if you used less than 5 words, you had to add more. This was annoying for the posts where a few words was justified. However, I will look at reinstating it. I am currently working on the main site and once that is done it will provide a platform for changes to the forum and maybe that RPG I left lying around here somewhere!  ;)
