Forum Ranks?

Concise description:
  • Forum Ranks

Specifics:
  • So this idea struck me in all sites i have been to, they have ranks based on number of post they have been posting. Now since we already use a ranking system ingame. That will be to much the same but what if we have a bounty system? Like 200posts = 1 Million $/Dollar. So It will say General Tittoff Bounty 1 Million...as an example.
  • Maybe have Wanted Bill Setup as background?
  • Should be limited to all Main forums but not Flame or Chatterbox.

This will improve the following aspects of the site:
  • More People On Forum. More Write on Map Suggestions, Suggestions.
  • You get the point..

ever since chatter box and clan posts didn't count because of the forum upgrade, I said GFY to forum ranks...
but now Androiz has brought this up, I'll be interested if it counts ALL of your posts

Now if i add Chatterbox then? The reason i wanted not to add them is cause i want the activity on other forums to go up.

No, this would just encourage people to say stupid things when they have nothing to say just to increase their post count.

It's a good example :)
Of just why this is never going to get adopted ;)

Also, everyone has the exact number of posts underneath their name.

no, you have about 1,700 posts displayed, but when I click search user's posts you have about 2,000 in total.
Same case for me, I have almost 600 posts displayed, but in reality I have about 1,000
the actual number of posts you have is shown when you click "search user's posts"

Forum ranks have been disabled, as they mostly just encourage spam to get one's rank up. ;) If you want to get A rank up, play some World Domination games. ;)
