What do you guys think?
0-49 posts = User
50-99 posts = Regular
100+ posts = Gratis Guru

Any suggestions?

I'm sure at a few hundred posts I'll be willing to setup custom titles.

Also, I'm adding a "Donator" group, so if you donated and you want that as your title, post here!

Neversky

Maybe you should let donators make their own titles... Cuz Donator... Just isnt a cool title...

Admin

I have hundreds of donators and custom titles are a pain in the butt. I don't wanna P

I think that 0-49 posts should be Newbie instead of User. D

(Speaking from my Forum Administration experience)
Just make a new usergroup called "Donators" and then just enable them in their permissions to be allowed to make their own usertitles. That way, you won't have to do the usertitles yourself, just add them to the usergroup, and they can do the rest. )

Yeah, I know, but this doesn't support user-settable titles out of the box, I'd have to install yet another mod and boy am I lazy.

I've donated three times now, so what does that make me?

Admin

12-09-2004 16:02:01

Donator + 3 green $'s!

Neversky

12-09-2004 16:03:08

Jeez a green dollar sign... That almost makes me want to donate...

Zephyr

100 posts in a forums is very, very easy to do... I've probably made more than 500 posts in the shoutbox...

Im not consirned about refs... I can get refs without spending anything... If I were to donate it would becuz I want to contribute to the hosting bills that this site must have... I'm kinda curious... How much bandwidth does this site use?

Admin

12-09-2004 17:08:16

Frankly I don't know. I have a special setup with a really reliable host but the bandwidth is more or less unmetered. I imagine that if these forums grow I will easily exceed the 300-1000mb/day I was doing before. Note that my images are hosted on another server so that b/w is pretty much text only. Heh.

Admin

Done!

I donated as well ....

Justin

13-09-2004 08:49:46

Yeah I think this forum will get very popular, very fast. You should make usertitles upwards to 1000, just to be safe. P
