New poll at HFCS!

The moderators were recently discussing the possibilities of having the "Member" above our forum avatars changed to reflect our moderator status. I listed a few possibilities. Go over to [url=http://seventhcolumn.bungie.net/perlbin/blam.pl?file=/fanclub/10481]HFCS[/url] and vote! Or, if you have a better suggestion, post here. =) Also, I want your guys' take on titles. I can't promise anything, but I would like to know if a title other than "member" would act as incentive for users to participate more in the community. What do you think?

  • Excellent idea Shishka. I thought it a bit strange that you moderators still had Member as the title. The idea of member titles, too. Ambitious, but I'm sure it would bring out the best in people.

  • I think you should have added "We Pwn U" to the poll...

  • [color=red]Argh, everyone's voting for Minion of Achronos. I guess there's no room in this modern society for boring old[/color] [color=blue]Psyched[/color] [color=red]and his simplistic idea of having Moderator as the title.[/color]

  • Cool idea. I bet this would work well, especially with younger members though; give them something to aim for thanks to good forum behaviour (and yes, I am a teacher! Who would have guessed it!). I'd be a bit worried if it got looked upon as 'favouritism' by the Mods. It would have to be done in a suttle way, but it's still a cool idea. I've spent a load of time here since i joined, so i guess it would be nice to get something back. :) [Edited on 8/18/2004 4:34:22 PM]

Just to be clear, are you talking about if we participate alot in the forums, we'll get a different title, other than member? Sorry, for the stupid question. Just trying to understand it better.

  • Yeah, that would be awesome. But only if they were good users. (Ex: Davester would not be getting a title.)

Sorry, for the stupid question. Just trying to understand it better.[/quote] That's the basic idea. As Achronos and Sketch have pointed out before, Bungie is looking at making a system that rewards users for being a healthy part of the community without creating a barrior between veterens and new users. How people go about earning these rewards and what rewards will all be available have yet to be described, but I imagine part of it will be titles other than just "Member." How people will get these new and better titles, though, I'm not sure.

  • Yeah, that sounds like a good idea. It would make it more appealing for new guys to post good stuff and would probably increase member sign-up levels.

  • Hm, while we’re on the subject of new titles- will being able to have a custom avatar be thrown into the incentive box as well? Or is that too much?

  • Ideas for members: Construct Mods' Lackeys Leader (simple but gets the idea out if you're a useful poster) Flaming Bodyguard (okay, starting to stretch) Fish Food (...and stretched) I voted for Flaming Ninjas for mods. I need numchuck skills, bow hunting skills, computer hacking skills. Girls like guys with skills.

  • [i]Minion of Achronos[/i] is just too -blam!-ming cool. Archronos is the overlord, and the mods serve him directly. So to me, it makes the most sence.

  • They could have special titles for those who have 1) been ninjafied X number of times, 2) been here for X amount of time, or 3) deserve a "special" title for whatever reason. Like Anton P Nym could get Volunteer Worker for all his volunteer police work. Just my thoughts though. [Edited on 8/19/2004 1:40:26 AM]
