"I think I've got a solution! Tony!"

We all know that this 'Class System' doesn't work. we get Newbies spamming to become regulras because the think it will gain them some more respect. Which it doesn't. But that doesn't stop them. Now with the added "Regular Only Forum" Newbies are going to spam more and more just so they can have access to that particular forum.

Well instead of having the Class System based on number of posts and words why not have it based on how long they've actually been here??!?!?! It'll stop the spamming to become a regular as that won't have anything to do with it. Let's say you had to be here for 75 days to become a Regular.

I think this would work much better than the current system. Anyway, let me know what you think!

I have just read the original topic. Although I haven't been able to trundle through the milions of replies, I think this idea is excellent!

I could swear I suggested this too when I turned up, but there is more to being a regular than people really think, I was listened to more when I was a regular, because I was one of a few 'different' regulars!!

We can move up from there if we need too.

Yeah he does I think

How about having a 'system' where well-written, gramatically sound, sensible, non-topic flooding Newbies can be promoted to Regular sooner than normal.

As like an Incentive to post quality stuff. Not everyone can have perfect SPaG, BUT you could measure their posts by effort!

Have a think about it.

No he shouldn't because it didn't really help the site like RBS' will

I'd say it was something extremely similar. Ask Ali to give you it, then compare it to mine. I will re-post it if you want.

I agree that you were right about this, and initially I jumped to the wrong conclusions, but I doubt if your code was used.

Remember I'm not a programmer.

Tell me otherwise?
