User Ranks - United Bimmer Community

**komodo** · 04-14-2005, 11:49 AM

All right, this forum is just starting out, so we need feedback from the members on how it should be developed. One customization we need to decide on is the user rankings (based on post count). What do you guys think the titles should be based on posts? So far it's boring (knowing it's going to be changed) setup like this:

Cute Little Newb - 0-50 posts
Active Lurker - 51-200 posts
Member! - 201-1000 posts
Enthusiast - 1001-3000 posts
1337 Bimmerer - 3001 and up posts

Whatcha think?

Its a good start, I think it will work for now, but I am sure there are better ideas out there, lets here from some of the members

I think you got it set too high... 3000 posts ? At least make it so that they get custom ones at 3000...

Does everyone get custom user title privileges right away, or just us mods. ? If everyone gets it right away, remove it and set the bar at 3k.. then toss out the 1337 bimmerrer.

defintaly make the gap way smaller for the beginning like every 50-75 and then make custom around 1500 or so... if i was a mod i wouldnt have to worry about this

haha

Haha, besides numbers, what about names? What should the different levels be called?

on maxbimmer, you can have custom 1s even if you only have 1 post...i liked that.

**528man** · 04-17-2005, 12:13 AM

i like the fact you get assigned names until youve been here a while

gives a sense you need to come back

I like the level names as they are, just my 2 cents

**doughboyea** · 04-18-2005, 12:34 AM

Btw, I've seen this in other forums and still have no idea what the hell it means....

1337 Bimmerer

**cruzin 323is** · 04-20-2005, 10:15 PM

member... how boring!

**bitcore** · 04-21-2005, 12:03 AM

Keep the forced naming scheme, add more towards the beginning so people become encouraged to go up to the next rank and eventually become hooked to the forum like a heroine addict, and give changeability at 2,000 posts, I don't wanna wait too long :P (or go in the DB and give the first 50 people the ability, muahahaha)

**komodo** · 04-21-2005, 12:13 AM

All right, but what are some suggestions for "[adding] more towards the beginning..."

You guys need to suggest what each rank should be named, and how many posts should be required to achieve it. That'd help more than anything.

**Torque** · 04-21-2005, 09:25 AM

1 - 100 = new member
101 - 300 = active poster
301+ = custom

**spiff** · 04-21-2005, 12:57 PM

i think custom should be 1000+

1-100:Cute Lil Noob
101-300:Active Lurker
301-500:Addicted Member
501-999:I Live Here

**komodo** · 04-21-2005, 03:13 PM

I'm thinking we should have the 1-100 broken down more... like 1-50 and 51-100... keep the newcomers interested.
