Does anyone have any suggestions on how the ranking should be set up on this forum?
Currently it is set like this:<table>
<tr><td>Between</td><td>And</td><td>=</td></tr>
<tr><td>0</td><td>49</td><td>Squid</td></tr>
<tr><td>50</td><td>99</td><td>Rookie</td></tr>
<tr><td>100</td><td>499</td><td>Back Marker</td></tr>
<tr><td>500</td><td>999</td><td>Road Star</td></tr>
<tr><td>1000</td><td>1999</td><td> Road Star Fighter</td></tr>
<tr><td>2000</td><td>+</td><td>Road Star Warrior</td></tr>
</table>
Been here about a year and after checking other sites this still kicks major league ass over anything out there. The postcount I donno guess promoting sooner is fine. I come here for the info and brotherhood of a common thread ground pound torque[}/emoticons/emotion-1.gif]
Hey, Y'all are kickin,' keep up the good work. I am not sure what y'all are fussin' bout with that rating stuff, but if it helps others to ride safe and repair their bikes cheaply and conviently-- more power or rating to ya. I would check out your competitors though. Chinese proverb said: 'know yourself,...know your enemy.' Myself, I can't help but laugh. Seriously, this ain't no beauty contest compared to the world. Maybe you should do away with the competition for rating stars and seriously go about the business of providing help to the supporters and users of the site. I mean, How Long Is The RSW Going To Live? I would hazard to guess, not long enough for the membership to catch the attrition (or the next generation Harley turns into a Kawasaki)? Harley is a lucky SOB, he's lived longer than any Jap' or 'Merican bike out there, even with poor life cycle. Sincerely guys, don't alienate the hand that feeds your system. The marketing will pass too, probably before you've made a decision to react to your membership attrition.
Don't know what your talking about, this thread is almost 5 years old. It's still active so people can see the when they get their next star (a frequently asked question and a common element in all forums). I guess we stuck around for a while in spite of ourselves. [/emoticons/emotion-4.gif]
I am not so sure I like the term 'Virago' because the definition is:
- a noisy or scolding or domineering woman
a large strong and aggressive woman
- Virago is a pejorative name for a verbally abusive and angry woman. It is derived from Latin virago, which means "resembling (-ago) a man (vir)" and was a positive word used to describe heroic females, usually in a mythological context.
- A woman regarded as noisy, scolding, or domineering. 2.A large, strong, courageous woman.
I have to admit, there are some better versions of Yami bikes out there that we could use to fill in our names, not even sure what the current ones are anymore, especially since there are some that seem to have custom names, once they qualified as RSW level.
But I do agree that some current verbage should be inserted.
Current rankings are at the bottom of page 1 in this thread, the only change would be to substitute Go-ped for Scooter. The lower levels aren't usually very appealing on any forum. It's what motivates you to participate and "earn" more.

I can understand the whole 'earning' a new name and all, but then you will just get a bunch of people posting 'cool' or 'yea' just to earl a point. I ain't bitch'n about it, just making a point. Ya'll are really doing a helluva job with this site.
You can call me anything you want as long as I have access to this 4M. Every name/title on here is 100x better than some of the names we have been called in the real world. Enjoy the forum and be safe.

Nope, that's where we come in. If you constantly postwhore, Carknee will change your title to "Permanent Newbie" or something equally as flattering and set your post count to -1, permanently. [/emoticons/emotion-2.gif]
huh, I hate go-ped under my name, one star is all I need. I have been on here for a little while now and havn't caught on to how that changes. Now i know.

Maybe this would apply to a certain Tall character who really likes the Welcome Forum!

been talking to another member here that has noticed the same thing, ratplem posted about it a few days ago and it got locked.i have no problem with members posting or chimming in after all this is a open forum but to constantly dig up topics that are several months old and commenting on issues that have long been resolved just makes it seem like you have way too much spare time on your hands as far as the welcome mat though i think its cool to give all of our newbies a warm welcome and to assure them this is a clean and well managed site
im still a newbie and i find it hard to read some topics when there are fifteen pages of "welcome to the forum" stuff. it takes forever to get to a meaningful response for the situation. but hey i still love this site, i have learned more than i could even want to here and it gave me MODFEVER
The ranking dosntexistlike itused to. This thread is almost 8 years old. We now simply have a purple thingy unde our names. Some of our purple thingies are simplylonger than others.
