Title Rank For Post Count

[/SIZE]

Many a day were I would sit during long hours of work to type up a short thread, response, or whatever came to mind. One of the main attractions to this was that I was awarded a post count title as my posts went up. For example, in the gears of war forums, once reaching 100 posts, you will see a small title under your avatar. We once had a forum user of the GoW reach 10,000 posts. This earned him the well deserved title of (seriously...)

So why have titles?
Titles help increase forum post counts, threads, and replies. Thus giving more feedback to your community. There are plenty of forums that use post count titles, and I would love to see original titles given to your forum users.
For example, once reaching 100 posts, have a title (Prestige Knight) or something like that. Another is upon reaching 10,000 posts, have (Vana'diel Conqueror)

So would this encourage spamming?

Not really. Forum Moderators check for spamming and threads. Other forum sites like gears of war use this also, and there is a strict rule on spamming, same as these forums.

What do you users think? Would this be a cool edition to the forums? A small edition yes, but awesome none the less.

I get the feeling this would only encourage spam and needless +1 posts that don't contribute anything to the conversation; case in point, this one.

As someone who has managed nearly 30k posts over on alla before, i support this.

I think this is a silly idea. We don't need rank titles and we don't need post karma.

No. It keeps you from being rewarded for posting, which means you'll probably keep the posting to more necessary chat.
Think they intend these forums for game ideas, feedback, complaints, etc, all game related stuff, not E-Peen boosting like on zam.

Post count mean nothing at all, at this point better put a +/- button and have a rating about what you post, that would mean way more then the total post you did. But i doubt SE would do this option also, because is too easy to discredit opinion from someone by only clicking on a +/- without any argument. If SE did this forum it was to know general opinion and not only how about people like you or not.

No. It keeps you from being rewarded for posting.

Just having a chance DEV read my post, is already a nice reward for me. This is not a contest of who post the most or who is most loved on forum...


*Edit* i can already smell the little 'click' that slowly build over all thread and ready to discredit everything with not argument, please no thanks, if the forum about to be lead by those player, then this forum worth nothing better then Zam, BG, and so on.

And no karma either, because then anyone who has a genuine complaint about a feature everyone loves will be rated down into oblivion like on zam. Even if its a good constructive post. As will anyone who defends the feature. It's just a stupid thing.
