Grav 2004-06-23 12:18 PM

Hey guys, shutup!

GAHH added to first post.

Jamesadin 2004-06-23 12:20 PM

I don't know, it sounds kind of cool.

WetWired 2004-06-23 12:48 PM

:rolleyes: Please; I think you're the only one that hasn't gotten over that yet.

WetWired 2004-06-23 12:50 PM

Well, there is the as-of-yet unused "Advisor" rank which could be used to grant non-staff members staff privledges if it was decided that such access was needed.

undeadzombieguy 2004-06-23 12:52 PM

That doesnt sound bad...So will every1 get judged (that would be alot of work O_o) or will there also be ppl who dont get anything. Also I assume when u get ur soa (sexual transmittable disease in dutch language.:P.) this wont be forever, but when someone starts acting like a retard who has the soa this will be taken away?

Thanatos 2004-06-23 12:53 PM

Anything to spruce up the forums is okay by me.

Some people won't fall under any category. I.E. Xenn, he's not here enough to be SoAed, but isn't GAHH or BLIS worthy either. (lol)

Yeah, if, say, Bob was stamped and he started pulling slaynishes all the time, he'd have it revoked.

Slim 2004-06-23 01:23 PM

Ok, say Bob did start acting like Slaynish and you removed the SoA, would you immediately give him a GAHH, or would he have to keep being stupid for a bit longer to earn that?

Grav 2004-06-23 01:24 PM

Different situations call for different measures. If he kept it up for a while, he'd probably be GAHHed.

Titusfied 2004-06-23 01:32 PM

Then we should make more inbetween ranks, for inactives, etc. I'm taking my vote off No, since I originally voted that way because you initially made it out so that only you were deciding all their fates.

Demosthenes 2004-06-23 02:21 PM

I have a feeling that I'm not going to like my ranking in Grav's ranking system, but this might be funny, so whatever. I guess I'll vote for it since.

kockblocker1 2004-06-23 02:25 PM

As of now you are at 93.33% (not sure if that 1 vote against was Titusfied but that would make it 100%)

May as well just do it already.

Jamesadin 2004-06-23 03:05 PM

Alright, this isn't a bad idea. So, will (should) there be more ranks other than the ones stated?

Titusfied 2004-06-23 03:26 PM

I think there should... 3 is a little too restricting.

And there were 2 No's so far. Myself and Chruser. I took myself off, and the initial post didn't get Chruser approval. Maybe it will now, that it is updated?

!King_Amazon! 2004-06-23 04:26 PM

I dislike the idea because it would end up being a popularity contest.

Slim 2004-06-23 04:32 PM

I don't know. It seem like more of a way to punish stupidity, and make intelligence a bit more well known. Take Slaynish for example, just because he's stupid doesn't mean he isn't popular. I think most people here know the name Slaynish, but that doesn't mean he'll get the SoA. Only using Slaynish since he's been a running example the whole time.

!King_Amazon! 2004-06-23 04:41 PM

I'd rather the members show their stupidity and intelligence through actions, not a title. People who act stupid around here are well known to be stupid and don't need a title. People who are intelligent are known for this and don't need a title for it.

At least put someone better than grav in charge of it.

Slim 2004-06-23 04:48 PM

Well, I think Grav, Raziel (if he accepts) and a few others will be making a little council so to speak, so he won't have the final word in it.

Titusfied 2004-06-23 05:05 PM

Right, and this probably won't work anyway. WW would have to program everything needed, and Chruser doesn't even like the idea.

Slim 2004-06-23 05:06 PM

The original idea, or the updated version of it?

Titusfied 2004-06-23 05:07 PM

Eh, I'm not going to speak for Chruser or WW..

Slim 2004-06-23 05:08 PM

Ah, I thought maybe you had talked to Chruser about the updates to it, since you weren't sure if he'd go for them or not. My mistake.

Titusfied 2004-06-23 05:09 PM

Well, I have talked with him about the update, I just don't want to speak for him..

uncapped 2004-06-23 05:37 PM

It sounds hilarious to me. Go for it.

!King_Amazon! 2004-06-23 05:41 PM

I'd rather the points system be added. It sounds like more fun.

Thanatos 2004-06-23 06:06 PM

/me agrees with KA.

WetWired 2004-06-23 06:31 PM

I'm still waiting for Chruser to DL and unpack the new vB version before I can start on any such hacks

Grav 2004-06-23 09:45 PM

Chruser, if you vote yes, you can have the SoA!

Randuin 2004-06-23 09:46 PM

sounds like a good system, what is there to say though? I don't want to be on the crap lists? That's just blatently obvious and is a total waste of space to post, oh wait... I just posted it... Shoot me now

Grav 2004-06-23 10:25 PM

Right.

Bang.

Vollstrecker 2004-06-24 07:39 AM

This actually sounds amusing. Count me in. ^_^

Jessifer 2004-06-24 01:48 PM

Yeah, it could be amusing at the least. So...why not, I say?

symnzXx 2004-06-24 05:27 PM

because Chruser said no.

Penny_Bags 2004-06-24 08:10 PM

You know what, this sounds like a damn good idea to me.

And you know, I have been here for quite a while, rarely spam (and I mean RARELY spam), and unless I am joking, I rarely say anything stupid (and I mean RARELY say anything stupid). My judgement is usually pretty damn good, and what do I have to show for it? Nothing. I have never been a staff member, and I am rarely said to be one of those people who is "one of the smarter members" or "one of the better (blanks)"............................... if you know what I am getting at. But the Nazi's of uber cookie cutting popularity are quite obviously the better choice for a position like the council. :rolleyes:

Anyways, I am for the idea, no matter how judgement systems pan out, however I reccomend as man categories with catchy names as possible. I also suggest that these categories aren't just on a ladder. They could vary to different personalities, such as a comedy stamp of approval, a flaming stamp of approval, a grammar stamp of approval; these would be quite similar to badges or medals in the military, except that we would have uber 1337 h4xor names for them.

GG folks.

‡AC‡ 2004-06-24 08:32 PM

For as much as I dis-like Grav at times, I still repect him enough to say this is a damn good idea.
Well theres my two cents.
Poll as of now is
  • 21 - yes
  • 5 - no

Hmm.. for some reason, I don't have any opinion of you, good or bad. Kind of like I didn't even know you're here. I usually associate people to their avatars; get one.

Vollstrecker 2004-06-24 10:24 PM

Swish! I'm Al Bundy!

So, any word on if we could actually MAKE a system like this work, or if it has officially been vetoed by Chruser?

Penny_Bags 2004-06-24 10:24 PM

Avatar... gwah...

Penny_Bags 2004-06-25 12:08 AM

Even if Chruser "officially vetoes it", he can't stop 5 People from making a council, making special sigs or avatars or something. After that, those 5 or so people could all have listed in their signatures who they have put into what groups... however quite obviously, the only way that we could make this truly official, is with the Swede's approval.

Grav 2004-06-25 12:12 AM

He is against good ideas. Just look at how fucking long it has taken them to get donuts out for the old members. By the time we get them, they'll be the last donuts in our post apocalyptic world.
