rednekrubbrduck · Jan 05, 2003, 04:07 PM

moderator1It s kind of six of one..half a dozen the other when it comes to the muffins thing. As far as the charter member tag?...I ve been called much worse.

moderator1I would like to vote yes, and no.

I d like to see how long one s been a member and maybe how many posts one has made but the icon thing I would not miss.

moderator1Tammy, I recently discovered that no matter what is listed (or not listed) under the member s name in their " frontpage" posts, THE TOTAL NUMBER of their posts is listed in their PROFILE[

moderator1I thought the pu s were cool. Can t see any harm in having a rating system. It s not like you win/lose anything. If someone feels the need to post a " got me another whatever" , oh well. I ll prob do it also [

]. Gotta admit, some were pretty good attention getters.

moderator1Now I know what those little pop-ups were for. Shy Suzie

moderator1Well, Y know, I probably had quite a few of those little guys behind my SN too, but to be honest with you, I don t remember how many. I never really paid attention to them, because I didn t care if they were there or not. And if anyone were to get the idea that I might have more good advice to give just because I had lots of little PU s, well, get real, you all know me, I had to ask lots of goofy questions to get where I was, and the reason I had to ask was not because I was wise. Having said that, I guess my vote will be for no icons for posts, just to keep us all on an even keel and so no one thinks anyone is any smarter or a better camper than anyone else.
When I work with youth groups, I always have the kids in a circle, for many and varied reasons, but the first one is that in a circle there is no first or last, no higher or lower, no one on a pedestal or at the bottom. With everyone on the same level, the ideas exchanged are fantastic. Let s just circle these wagons and get on with camping. That s all I have to say about that.

wiininkweOk is it just me or is the number of posts gone already too?

I can t see it anymore, except when I look in someone s profile.
I think that s the way it should stay. I don t need them anyway.

You dont EVER have to wear a nametag again, Jeffrey! (Dang, I miss those kissy Faces!) And I miss your jeffrey signature, too!

moderator1I liked the pop-up icons. Better than the muffins & remember how happy I was when I got my first one. Yes, I have no life. [

wiininkweWell for what it s worth I like it this way. Just because someone started earlier and likes to gab doesn t mean they re better or more special than a first time poster.

slowpez · Jan 06, 2003, 09:20 AM

moderator1They were cute (I wouldn t mind having one added to my signature) but I was a bit intimadated when I first started lurking on the board. Anything that may have a negative side by discouraging participation is not a good idea to my mind.

moderator1 Well, I never earned a popup but I think if we all just get one like Marcy said (of course she d have an aliner[

]) that would be good. Or, instead of giving people more popups as you post, you just change the color of the popup. Then people won t be intimidated by them. I also think we should get rid of " charter member" because anyone who joins now will not be charter. But if you look in the profiles, keep charter member.

Just my opinion. [
