V. Member Ranking

From the HELP section:

V. Member Ranking

Ranking
Each author is assigned a ranking based on the number of posted messages they have made. The ranking appears underneath the user's name. Below are the current ranks.

Title Posts Required
Junior Member 0
Member 20
Senior Member 200
Golden Member 1000
Platinum Member 2000
Diamond Member 3000
Lifer 10000

Since this is a tech site I propose we use techie numbers for the status rankings. Everything should be common numbers we use in every day computing or at least they should be based on base^2 numbers. Perhaps something like:

Title Posts Required
Junior Member 0
Member 32
Senior Member 256
Golden Member 512
Platinum Member 1024
Diamond Member 4096
Lifer 16384

Moving "lifer" up to 16384 might even make Dannylove come back, too.

Cool idea. I concur that you need one for 8192, and also one for 32768 (some people in ATOT will be approaching that one soon ).

 

[MadRat]

Bump!

Me no like. I wouldn't be a Diamond member again for a long time. But the "No Lifer" designation is a good one.

Awww, so simple. I like it. That one at 32768 really has alot of merit. Even better title than "Elite" IMO!

Why drop the requirement for golden from 2000 to 1024? It should be 2048.
32768 should be: "Still here

"
