Member Rankings = Stupid BMB Feature

BAMBAM · 07-31-2007, 09:54 AM

Only thing I hate about this site is how its so much similar to the BMB which I can't stand. The whole ranking thing is absurd and only leads to give some a false sense of superiority.

BAM
Junior Member

I will probably remain a Junior member for a while. I tend to read, listen more than POST.

my dad once told me that Successful people monopolize all the listening.. it hasn't worked yet but I'm not one to give up on a good idea too soon.

Great thread Terry!

I thought I'd get that in there to begin my quest to be a senior member.

Well might as well help myself get a little closer to the next rank

wingin98 · 07-31-2007, 10:28 AM

Ya I think it will hurt folks like myself that read a lot and then when I do post my needs for the different sets folks are going to look and think hmmm this guy hasn't been around long enough to trust him... I agree a big thumbs down on that one

It does show your join date as well so your length of time on the board shouldn't be affected.

pat_blowoutcards · 07-31-2007, 10:35 AM

ok..no more "rankings".

You are now either a "Member" or "Administrator".

Just to let you guys know, we are listening to your comments and suggestions and will make changes where we can. We can't please everyone all the time, but we will do what we can to make this forum easier to use as we grow and get more members.

I know this may look like the BMB, but the software we use for this board is basically the industry standard when it comes to message boards. The search functionality is a ton better and there are a lot more features.

thanks,
Pat

Pat's right. This is just what a lot of message boards use. In other words, it's just a coincidence that Beckett uses the same things. It's the people that make a board, anyway. I, for one, am glad that we're all Members.

aww no more rankings? I was hoping to be able to boost my self confidence with meaningless posts!

I guess i'll have to find another way to boost it....maybe by pulling M**O, perhaps?
