This is a rather neat idea. Not only is the atmosphere of a game dependent on the community of players, forums are as well! |

To claim you know everything only States you know nothing |
Originally posted by Taera Haha! After a workout in this Floridian Sun an Idea struck upon me. What if a idea posted in those forums got 20 positive responses from 20 different user's? The number could change according but...It would help sift which idea's have a strong falling and which ones are just too advanced for there time. |

Yay! Another use for all the bots used to vote up/down games like Guild Wars and EVE. I'm sure the people who made the 500,000 something trash accounts will be excited to hear that they can now "mod up" their own posts, and, in doing so, make them seem more "important" than the everyday forumgoers. |

Originally posted by AethiosI'm not talking simply +1 posts being positive. I'm talking actual people posting actual feedback about an idea. Hopefully you frequent the idea's thread but it "seems" to me that you don't. As the last place a bot or a clone account would go is a developers corner thread.
If you really want to look at it like then. Just think about the entire forum title system. What makes my idea any different from the current idea used now? You get a title based of a sticky, now how does a thread become a sticky?
Sorry but I just don't see how your logic can apply to me alone here. You should be quoting the original post then and complaining that the system fails like that. But honestly anyone can do that on any forum and there's really no way to stop it. So like my old gym coach used to say. "don't whine if you can't fix it" |

Posts are stickied/given titles based on the helpfulness and positive impact that they provide to the community. While some people might write guides just for the purpose of obtaining a title - they're still helping the community and providing great information. I'll think about a way to integrate this in the Dev Corner :) |

Originally posted by zensaber We don't give/take away stars or hardcore status; those are based off of activity and it's entirely automated. That's like getting mad at ice for melting while you weren't watching ;) The new titles will not disappear or decay unless your posts are found to be plagerized. |
