JayPee:
You may be on to something. The forum could solicit the name of the favorite adult beverage of each member. Those who do not consume would be assigned Kool-Aid as their choice. Then a poll could be conducted which does not reveal the results publicly. The top choice would get assigned five stars and last place would only receive one. Assignments of two, three or four stars would be based on the math in the middle. Now the poll would need a deadline or the math would always be in a state of flux when new members come on board and make their beverage election.

Hello noglock, Well, personally I like to drink beer. Mostly Coors Light with a wedge of lime added. (Yeah, I know that I am a lightweight compared to some out there)! JayPee: You may be on to something. The forum could solicit the name of the favorite adult beverage of each member. Those who do not consume would be assigned Kool-Aid as their choice.

Assignments of two, three or four stars would be based on the math in the middle. Now the poll would need a deadline or the math would always be in a state of flux when new members come on board and make their beverage election. To be quite honest, I would just like to give everyone the title of "Member" that joins here. That way, we get out of the "post whoring" game and recognize everyone for their contributions. The board was set up with preset defaults that actually attribute titles to members and I guess we lost sight of that and just wanted to recognize folks for their contributions. To be honest, I share a lot of the responsibility for setting up the membership titles and if you all have better suggestions; than please let me know? Best, Chris

There is another good idea. High post count could merit the title of promiscuous poster.

Hello noglock, Well, I went ahead and fixed the problem for you and others and we really don't need any further discussion on the subject. There is another good idea. High post count could merit the title of promiscuous poster. So now, you are all just "members" of the forum. Thank you for your input and the deal is done! Best, Chris

Another forum that I like a lot (and to wich a number of members here are also members) simply uses 'member in good standing.' I have always thought that was a great idea and it promoted free discussion and made new members more comfortable.
I think the new approach will work well...
Thanks
Chuck

Designations change with the different phases of the moon......kinda of fun, don't you think?? I am enjoying it. So far, no grumpy old poot, so I can't complain. As a Five Star Expert you are probably pretty safe. :-) I have been demoted!!!! Perhaps I now have a good reason(like I need one) to make a trip to the adult beverage store.
