rep?

I said that. lol

Derp, I skimmed.

well then lets get the word out and get more people to join

It's a lot cooler a system than the simple post count titles other forums have (like proboards, for example).

We'll probably be in 2013 before somebody makes level 100.

You're almost there, Roph! Power level! Power level!

If I'm not mistaken, admins could just alter their level via their profile lol. I know I can alter post count.

We could if we altered our post count like Roph did.
He's got a few thousand nonexistant posts :p

Just curious, but imagine a person had been here since March 2006, and had made 24,000 posts, what would their level be?

Don't you dare tempt SBGX to come back with a line like that.

Say it and you won't be able to walk in the morning.

We'll get there faster if I mess up the algorithm!

Personally the algorithm seems kinda broke to me. I think post count should hold a lot more weight than signup date.

Well when it was made, the signup rate was much slower ;o

FIX IT THEN, DAMN

That would change + lower everyone's levels, and make it even slower to progress though =o

I guess another way I could do it is by increasing the power of postcount, but then everyone's levels would jump ._.

The less rep you have, the more obvious it is you did something really stupid at some point.

Counter balance the two by equal measures

profit

Impossible, it would affect every user differently

Funny, I seem to have a stereotypical view that anyone below level 20 is not someone worth listening to. Aside from a few exceptions. Pure freaking essence of awesome cancels this rule (eg. Grace/Stocking/Salad Fingers). Unless someone proves they can stand some flaming, hazing, - rep, etc. (in other words, has actually stayed around long enough to reach 20), they are not worthy.

Im halfway there! XD

all of which has nothing to do with levels.

Length of time spent on RMRK since registration?


EDIT: Ah! Here's the quote!

Levels are just a sign as to how much you post and how long you've been a member.

I'm saying that criteria for someone being worth listening to has nothing to do with level.

Ah, actually, now that I think about it, that's completely correct. Perfect example in this case is Bio.

However, notice I said "Stereotypical" view.

Yeah, its all about word choice. Modern Algebra and Roph always talks with reason and meaning, so people listen to what he has to say:)

Roph talks with reason and meaning? Since when?
