I just noticed that the ability to make polls was removed. And although I can understand why dan removed it. There should be a better way than to completely remove polls.

Why not give members rank according to their posts like I see in other forums. Also dan can remove certain previlage from members not completely remove ability to make a poll.

There are some players that really need to stop making polls but then polls are important too.

Just my thoughts. I know its late. But I've been away from the forums

+1 for rank system... and penalties that would apply to people that abuse the forum.

Yes to both rank system and Dan taking privileges away from certain people.

How would the rank system work for us theoretically?

Lots of forums have a "karma" or "points" system or something. (+1 to the concept)

Every post you make has a + and - counter next to it.
The sum of all of these counters is displayed below your avatar.
As you reach certain "milestones", say +100, +250, you unlock certain features. For example, the ability to vote posts up/down, ability to make polls, etc.

This would have to be excluded from the main pub and probably legion forums though - too many flame wars/hater posts/votes there.

On the CoD Zombies forums (briefly a member) people had scores called 'brains' (original, right) and people voted up peoples posts that were really smart, and raised peoples brains.

What's that?

I just notice it on a lot of forums - usually when I'm doing homework/looking at forums for games.
