*grin* This is particularly apropos since I am taking a break from solving a PDE that right now I have the first term of a double asymptotic expansion.

I vote for the ranks on that website, the ones above sound rather childish admin.. no offence.
|
|
|||
I vote for my post count as it was on bsdforums.
I really start to hate all of you admins, because I am again noob/New User. |
|
|||
So, what were the ranks on BSDForums?
|
|
||||
With the post count I've accumulated between the forums that I visit daily: I would be happy if my post count stays LOW in comparison to other people...

Well, post count might simply mean that you have a lot of questions that you're too lazy to research. So, I've never been too concerned about my post count anywhere.
For example, on bsdforums, I had to laugh when a particular FreeBSD developer posted and was called a Newbie while I was some sort of kernel saunders or whatever it was called. |

However, post count doesnt indicate how competent user is. Maybe he asks too much, he loves spamming or simply he is very active. The more accurate way to assess is the number of times he is thanked. But at the end of the day, ranking is just spice of the main course, I'd rather spend more time to improve the forum content. The success of the forum depends upon how good the content is.

I'm with richardpl & BSDfan666 on this one. BSDForums' ranks are one of the few things that site got right. Using powers of two was a true insight.

i'm with scottro and nexus ones. and i totally agree with 18Googol2 about user competency not being measured from the number of posts, but having ranks keep the users around. no users => no forum .
all the best, v |

I may be in the minority..
I don't care.. |

I don't care either. Right now my learning is 'spikey', that is, on a graph it would show I know a lot about things here and there but have trouble with the troughs in between. Being a one man shop I can be too 'jack of all trades'. If I soon reached any kind of loftier status based on posts alone, it would be a lie.
I like the idea mentioned above of choosing your own. Or if it was possible to have a form where one would select from that Unix Wizard site anything one could do, then use that to determine it, I just like that. |

In light of the exceedingly mixed response to the new ranks, I will post a poll to see what we should end up doing. I will leave it open for some time, just so we can get a good representation of users. |
