Lemon Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 (edited) I saw something by a users profile picture, we have ranks now? can someone explain how they work? thanks Edited June 11, 2021 by quirkylemon103 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Cory Posted June 11, 2021 Administrators Share Posted June 11, 2021 I don't know how they work yet. The forum upgraded to a new version and these are new. I'll be researching into them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Cory Posted June 11, 2021 Administrators Share Posted June 11, 2021 It appears it will be an automatic system that gives out ranks based on actions performed on the forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lefty o Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 on most forums they just basically hand out titles based on number of posts. really more of a method to show how active someone is on a forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobbit Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 (edited) It seems the badges aren’t counting our old posts, just our new ones. The playing field has been leveled! 😮 Edited June 11, 2021 by Hobbit Well, kind of. The other badges (the ones you can see on your profile) do count old posts! Still figuring this out...

Streetwise Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 I will see if we can have this feature count previous activity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lefty o Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 you seem to have gotten previous post count to work. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrozenFins Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 How do these ranks work? do they go off posts, reuptation points, etc.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lefty o Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 seem to be post count based. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anewbie Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 Post count is not a good metric. There are other fish forums that rank quality of a poster by post count. Unfortunately they do not measure the quality of the actual posts. Now that would be an interesting system if they could automate point system based on the quality of the posts. Would win an aware in AI if one could manage that feat.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Streetwise Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 This is a new feature for us, but I think it also includes other metrics like reactions. I’m still looking into the details for the points. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemon Posted June 12, 2021 Author Share Posted June 12, 2021 (edited) I really think the ranks should be redone, I am definitely not experienced. maybe base it off specific reactions like, and thank you 🤷♂️ Edited June 12, 2021 by quirkylemon103 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobbit Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 @quirkylemon103 but you are certainly experienced in how to use this forum! 😀 There will never be a perfect metric, of course, because experience is soooo hard to measure. If you click on someone’s profile, you can still see the number of reactions they received. So if you prefer using that metric, it’s still there, just less visible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lefty o Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 thought just crossed my mind. highest rank should be NERM, not grand master. is it changeable? just a thought, not implying it should or must be changed. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BettasAreSuperior Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 (edited) I acknowledge this is an old thread but I had a question. The below pic says 283 pts till next rank. How am I supposed to get points? Does 1 post equal 1 point? Edited January 2, 2022 by BettasAreSuperior Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
