Title: Title name for everyone
Post by: Josetann on April 29, 2000, 01:08:00 PM

As all of you have noticed by now, you\'ve got a (stranger) title following you.  That\'s cause when you first sign-up, you\'re giving that title; once you\'ve been here more then it changes in status.  But I can change it at anytime for you guys, so if you\'d like something like \"Private Club\" or something along those lines, then let me know and I\'ll set that for everyone.  Need everyone to agree on one title.  And if you don\'t want yours changed, I won\'t.

I would like to know how many posts it takes to get past stranger. Or how about starting everyone off as \"newbie\" then \"Power User\" or something...

0   stranger
25   newbie
50   journeyman
100   member
200   enthusiast
400   addict
700   old hand
1200   veteran
1600   Pooh-Bah
2500   Carpal Tunnel

Think I should change these?  Remember I can override them on a per user basis, so you guys can all have \"Masters of our domain\" or anything else you want, instead of being labelled as \"newbie.\"

As is your home I\'ll only make a suggestion: for us \"members\" as starting point and may be fixed (without escalation), and just a thought: the escalation should consider only serious posts not \"beach ball\"
If I understood well the points are the number of each one posts

I can\'t change which posts get counted or not, besides everyone\'s supposed to bump the beach ball!

Are you saying I should have everyone start out at members, or just private club members?  Cause once I change someone\'s title, they keep that title.  I think it\'s good where it\'s at, have new people start at stranger (or maybe newbie instead, let me know) and work their way up.  Private Club members automatically get a title like TPC (Tech Private Club) or whatever\'s agreed upon.  So they wouldn\'t have a stranger or even a newbie title.

Anymore suggestions for a good title guys?  I think Private Club Member is a little, well, non-imaginative, I\'d like to give everyone a better name.  It\'s up to you all though, whatever you all decide on (within reason of course, I\'m not gonna name everyone admin now).

For Private Club Members I like \"Member\" is short and strong, remembers me \"the members of the round table of King Arthur\", TPC is also good, as I previously said is your home, and you have the right to make the rules, and we are thankful to be received.
I\'ll be outside for a few days

Not sure about \"Member\", I mean we\'re all members, whether we\'re in the Private Club, right?  Just my thought on it.

True, I have the right to make the rules, but I\'m not gonna be all uptight about it or anything.  If everyone wants to have \"Member\" as their title, and I had my hopes set on \"Josetann\'s Slaves\", I\'m not gonna make a big deal about it.  Think of it like the American government, just without as much corruption.  You guys are Congress, I\'m the President.  You come up with an idea most of you can agree on, and I can say sure or veto it.  If most everyone wants something, then I probably wouldn\'t say no unless it\'s really unreasonable like all Private Members get a free 600E Coppermine.  Take this forum as an example.  I was leaning towards it, but asked people to check out others they liked too (I also had Discus installed, it was pretty nice too).  Everyone loved this forum so I bought it.  If everyone would have rather had Discus\'s layout, then I probably would have gotten it instead.

Thanks again everyone for your support.
