Should we change the posting ranks?

Yeah, make them like the old totse.
Yeah, but make them different from the old totse.
No, keep them the way they are.

Posting Ranks
« on: May 17, 2014, 11:55:54 pm »
So we have 5 posting ranks at the moment. They are:

Newbie: 0-49 Posts
Jr. Member: 50-99
Full Member: 100-249
Sr. Member: 250-499
Hero Member: 500-Infinity

Should we change them or are they good enough?

there is absolutely no need for posting ranks...they are absolutely meaningless.  if some asstard makes 5,000 posts with no content other than some stupid internet meme the poster still has less value than someone who makes 2 posts with constructive and useful content

edit:  it also encourages retards to make meaningless posts for no reason other to make their post counts go up

I'd make the gaps a bit larger

0-99
100-249
250-499
500-999
1000-2499

etc
You don't have to be a student of Sun Tzu to realize that going face-down ass-up for a bunch of paedo's is a bad move for a number of reasons. I hope the final dimming embers of Totse aren't finally extinguished by a few kiddie-fiddlers. Even death by furries would be better than that.

That would count as spam and he would be infracted for such.

it also encourages retards to make meaningless posts for no reason other to make their post counts go up
Even if there's no posting ranks, the post count is still there. And retards will be retards no matter what you do. In the end it's just a fun thing.

I'd make the gaps a bit larger

0-99
100-249
250-499
500-999
1000-2499

etc
OK, so you would like to keep the Post Ranks but change the values for them, right?

it wouldnt be spam if it is 5000 posts spread out over multiple threads.  again...you miss the point

What's the point of this?

Maybe I'm still missing the point. If he posts spam just once, he gets a warning. Another time even a week after, he gets a ban. Another time, he gets an even longer ban. In terms of garbage posts, again, he'll still post them no matter if there's posting ranks or not.

As to why, as I said, it's just a fun thing, like signatures and avatars.

example: hazza had a billion posts.  the majority of which were idiotic memes of one sort or another.  virtually valueless content

if there is no purpose or use than why waste the time?  its your sandbox...if you want to poop in in no one can stop you

lol Dude, you're so confusing me. Posting ranks are for fun. Nothing else. How would having no posting ranks on totse2 make Hazza stop posting virtually valueless content? How are putting up posting ranks pooping in the sandbox? It's just acknowledging something that's already there with an easy-to-refer-to-title.
