Hey, I realize this isn’t a major issue, and I don’t see it causing any hassle or confusion in the future however, I was just re-reading over the forum rules and guidelines documents / pages and noticed that for the SitePoint “Ranks” a member who has over 1,000 posts will have the rank of “SitePoint Wizard” and 6 orange pips yet the same goes for a member who has over 10,000 posts (but 7 orange pips).
I was just thinking, for the sake of differentiation, maybe you could come up with a different rank for the last one and change it? I was thinking of “SitePoint Master”.
It doesn’t affect me, I’m nowhere near 10,000 posts and I don’t anticipate I’ll reach such a number. I don’t find it to be such a big deal either. Nobody has had any problems with it previously and I don’t either. But I was justing reading over the guidelines and seen that they were the same and figured, heh, maybe I should suggest they make a different ranking name for the last one. No biggy
Oh I see what you are saying…most have new user titles other then teh default anyway (at least, those above 10k) so I don’t think it’d be of much use :))
Though for the record, I’d like a new default rank title
Heh, I’ll repeat my first paragraph with some emphasise.
I realize this and I know you can have a custom member title after 200 points. However, as I said in my original post, whether it is of use or not, I think for the sake of differentiation it could be changed. As I also said, I’m not all that bothered by it or anything really. I just thought maybe they could replace one word with another word and there wouldn’t be much fuss about it.
As I said, I don’t believe anybody is bothered, hassled or confused by it. I don’t think many people notice or are bothered about user titles, the same goes for myself. I’m not bothered how many have over 10,000 or will do in the future. I’m just saying for the sake of differentiation, just replace the word Wizard with something else?
I’m not entirely bothered about it. If you don’t want to change it then I don’t really care. I just thought for the sake of differentiation, seeing as having over 1,000 posts and having over 10,000 is a big difference, that it may be a good idea. That’s all.
Unless this is a laughable suggestion, it would seem that way! Lol. Bleh.
Yes there’s this place called Webmaster World and Google has several places in something called Google Groups for their stuff and there’s places for each of the browsers like Mozillazine for Firefox and Opera Community Forums for Opera. There’s such a wide life outside of SP.
Lol. Bleh.
