I like this site a lot, but there is one thing i really think it needs. Rankings. You know, to show how much people post, how reliable they are, ect.

I think serenitymovie.org has rankings...something like that.

To go along with the rankings, a kudos system would be nice as well. (such as the one Red Vs Blue uses)

With all due respect I can think of nothing more tedious than a forum full of people sniffing each other's post counts.

Eh.
Our posts should stand on their own merit. We don't need ranks and ratings to have a good time.

Now, if it had free soda and potato chips, THAT I could behind!

Agreed. So many forums are ruined by people getting to preoccupied with 'who has more posts' vs. 'seniority' vs. 'what-have-you' and it's inevitably followed by newbie bashing.

If it ain't broke . . .

But if there's food involved, I'll totally sell out.

Well, what about everyone has a rank, but it's only visible to you (and mods)?

Yeah. Part of what makes these boards so shiny is that there is no sense of seniority. It makes no difference if we've been here since the Fox broadcasts or since this morning.

We're Browncoats. We don't need any other distinctions.

I apprieciate the shoot-down.

But, I think a more distinct profile would be nice. With stuff like "Browncoat Since..." ect.
I don't think any of the people on here are going to compete over things like posting, "anyone we can't spare," it would just be nice to know.

There's no place I can be since I found Serenity.

Everybody's profile already shows how long they have been a member here, when the last time they visited, a selection of threads they have posted to recently, plus any blogs, fanfic, filk or images they have posted to the Blue Sun Room.

What more do you want?

Although come to think of it...folks that decided they had seniority would make it easier by letting the rest of us know who to shoot

I'm not too fond of rank, myself. Who cares how many posts a person made? Quantity is a notoriously bad gauge for quality (hey, that sounds actually pretty good; lol). Seriously, though, when people reach out, and touch me personally, I know rank would neither add to the experience, nor detract from it. I hope, vice verse, that others feel the same.
