Subject: New poll at HFCS!

-S

The moderators were recently discussing the possibilities of having the "Member" above our forum avatars changed to reflect our moderator status. I listed a few possibilities. Go over to HFCS and vote! Or, if you have a better suggestion, post here. =)

Also, I want your guys' take on titles. I can't promise anything, but I would like to know if a title other than "member" would act as incentive for users to participate more in the community. What do you think?

Excellent idea Shishka. I thought it a bit strange that you moderators still had Member as the title.

The idea of member titles, too. Ambitious, but I'm sure it would bring out the best in people.

I think you should have added "We Pwn U" to the poll...

Cool idea. I bet this would work well, especially with younger members though; give them something to aim for thanks to good forum behaviour (and yes, I am a teacher! Who would have guessed it!).

I'd be a bit worried if it got looked upon as 'favouritism' by the Mods. It would have to be done in a suttle way, but it's still a cool idea. I've spent a load of time here since i joined, so i guess it would be nice to get something back.

:)

Ok. Just to be clear, are you talking about if we participate alot in the forums, we'll get a different title, other than member?

Sorry, for the stupid question. Just trying to understand it better.

I think that's what he means. Which would be awesome. But I would probably end up with some crappy name, like Stacy or Flower Boy.

Yeah, that would be awesome. But only if they were good users. (Ex: Davester would not be getting a title.)

That's the basic idea. As Achronos and Sketch have pointed out before, Bungie is looking at making a system that rewards users for being a healthy part of the community without creating a barrior between veterens and new users. How people go about earning these rewards and what rewards will all be available have yet to be described, but I imagine part of it will be titles other than just "Member." How people will get these new and better titles, though, I'm not sure.

Yeah, that sounds like a good idea.

It would make it more appealing for new guys to post good stuff and would probably increase member sign-up levels.

Hm, while we’re on the subject of new titles- will being able to have a custom avatar be thrown into the incentive box as well?

Or is that too much?

Doesn't look like it's gonna happen.
