The potential problem I have with displaying the number of posts per member (or having their status change according to the number of their posts) is that some people will clog up the board with nonsence posts simply to watch their numeral rise. Also, the larger the number of posts for a particular member may give that member a heightened sense of undeserved wisdom.

Just a thought

We could use this thing to give like a badge or HELLO type sticker to people. Someone could be a 'Helper' or 'Lurker Helper' or something. It's a good way to help include people. Remember the lurker adoption agency?

OR...we could have the poster of the month, or week, or whatever, and give that title to someone...or multiple people. You would get a certain status when you've helped someone special that week, or started the best thread that week or something. :-)

I know there's all this potential for problems, but can't we rise above that? Maybe not.

Unfortunately Neil, I don't think that's going to work here. On other boards that I belong to there's a type of member status and they have the number of posts displayed and I haven't noticed any problems with it. But since there seems to be some disagreement with it here, it may not work like intended. jmo fwiw.

Just adding my two cents...

Personally, Admin...do whatever is easiest for you! I'm not all that particular what's under my name nor if the date is entirely accurate. My students will call me many names (mostly behind my back) and the fact that I'm here NOW is what I'm concerned about...not whether I was around three years ago. As far as the "where we're from" idea...well, my name pretty much already does that! LOL

SOOOO.....thanks for whatever you decide. The new look is great! Yesterday seemed mighty long w/o my TVCH fix!

Tess, the babysitting part is just perfect. Except that I, unlike Pamy hee hee, don't require babysitting. I just need direction and a strong role model. }

Landi, you'd better make sure that "bubbly" isn't a code word for "gas" before you go dancing around telling the world what Tess and Juju are saying about you.

How about if the status shows how long you've been here?

For example, if you registered anytime between BB1 and BB2, you're a senior member. Between BB2 and BB3 an advanced member BB3 and BB4 an intermediate and so on.

I'm here almost every night, but I don't post very often, so even though I've been here three years, I'll never make senior status. I could probably be here 10 and never make senior status. LOL

I really liked the idea to put the geographical area under our names, east coast, west coast, I actually think it was a time zone thing. That would be so helpful instead of always having to say where are you (that you have -0 weather). Then we westies would know who the likely spoilers would be, LOL.

I will be happy with whatever you decide. The board is really cool looking.

Neil, I trust your judgement to do whatever the heck it is you think is best. I'm just so glad you made this place and made it so wonderful and we all have a fantastic place to come and play. Besides it's your baby, you can do whatever you want. Did you ever dream it would be this big or this much fun for everyone?

I like Dipo's idea. Since there are six choices we could have,east coast,west coast,middle US,South,Canada,and elsewhere. LOl,although I only know of one member that is elsewhere.
Anyway,something like that would be cool.

you guys are just way too funny LOL I like the time zone or even state/province thing. If someone wants to remain anonymous,just put NOYB (none of yer bizzness) or 'land of the polar bears' = alaska......I really like knowing where people are from...puts posts in context.....or really, it's just FUN :-) Can't it be automated, like our names? when we register, can't the info come up with our sn? or do you have to input that info individually? Isn't the name entered automatically with registration? If so, can't the time zone or location be linked without having to manually type it in?

Thanks Admin for all the hard work...great job!

just had a thought tho......linking locations with screen names during registration is fine but what about all of us who are already registered.....that's the admin nightmare you're talking about? LOL hmmm....I'll volunteer to do data entry duty...bet if we had a few hundred of us, we could knock it out in no time??? mebbee?? :-)
