Ranking

[Colapop]

I don't feel much like working and I'm sort of in holiday mode already so I thought I'd create a thread about something. (And this will probably get moved to PD.)
In Site Stuff there is a thread about user titles and image ranking. See here;
http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/showthread.php?t=747
It explains all the current titles and image ranks associated with them. My questions are, is there a need/want to have a different image ranking for those that have exceeded 5k - 7k? ie. one for the 10k member/s that will soon arise (Arise, Sir Sniper!). If so, what should it be? I thought a crown emblem or heart or something?
Another thought was about the titles themselves. Perhaps the moped rider etc titles could be spread out so that they cover a greater range? ie. moped L-Plate rider 0-99 posts, Scooter Boy (or Girl - PC these days) 100-199?
Given the traffic and increased memerbship that a site like this is bound to garner should a senior member be one with a longer time here/more posts - 1000 perhaps? Also having intermediate members or something?
Yeah I know Spankme does so much work for the site and us already and there is no intention to add more to his plate but I thought I'd just while away my time by asking these questions. There have been members who have been frustrated by their status and maybe this is a place that they can voice those concerns in a constructive way. Bearing in mind of course that Spankme and Wari and Co. are in no way obliged to take any notice of these thougts at all.

I'd also note that it has been said before if you have any problems go straight to a Mod. or Spankme and they'll get it sorted fairly smartly for you or give you a reason for whatever has happened.

A crown for Sniper, What are all the names for the amount of posts? Do you have a link so I can see?

[SpankMe]

Been thinking about a star ranking for 10,000 posts. Me wants a cylon eye. A red dot with trail going left and right. Needs to be 10 pixals high by about 60 wide if someone wants to make one.

[DemonWolf]

That would be impressive..

[Colapop]

See edited post above for link

[*sic]

10k.... damn man peeps gotta get out more!!

[Colapop]

No denying it's gonna happen.... Sniper hasn't even chimed in yet - He must be surfing for pron.

[Waylander]

Did you mean a Cyclone eye Spank? Or is Cylone Eye actually something that I've never heard of before. could have happend lol

Cyclops eye maybe?

[Waylander]

That's what I was thinking of. Just woke up so not thinking straight yet.

[Colapop]

Knowing Spank's preferences ..... are you sure the 'Cyclone' eye isn't a euphimism for somefing else? Maybe brown....?
There's so many icons that can be used for different levels of darkness dwellers (those who don't like the light) you could theoretically go on and on.
Even so far as the current King rep holder. A little crown that transfer s to whomever has the highest? We've already got stars for the lower ranks so how about a diamond/s? Can't be any harder than flashing x's?

[Hitcher]

I think Spank may have been referring to the eyes of the bad dudes from Battlestar Gallactica....

You never heard of a Cylon??? Does this sound ring a bell?

The new Cylons are far more sexy.

[Waylander]

Never watched that show.

[Deano]

Hey, who attached the Cyclon eye noise ? Wicked

Had me searching around for a second - if this thread hadn't been about Cyclon's I would probably still be looking for it !!

[DemonWolf]

hmmmm... loverly sound. Though I still like the old battle cylons voice.

[SARGE]

Cyclops eye maybe?



:Oi: ... thats right ... pick on the handicapped kid...

[Colapop]

:Oi: ... thats right ... pick on the handicapped kid...Hey, no-one said anything 'bout a gimp suit!

[Virago]

And Sniper still hasn't posted - the suspense is killing me.....:wait: :chase:

[Sniper]

If I may choose a gift for being hitting 10000 posts. May it be a stripper. Also a crown would be cool. :lol:

[Sniper]

And Sniper still hasn't posted - the suspense is killing me.....:wait: :chase:

Oooooo, you will never have to wait long for me.

[Virago]

Sniper - where the hell ya been - you're late!:rofl:

[Sniper]

Sniper - where the hell ya been - you're late!:rofl:

Sorry, I had the day off and I have been pre-occupying myself with a search for more virgins to join my castle.



ARGH, the noise......................:blink:

[Colapop]

Oh surprise HE wants a crown! I suppose HE also wants a septre and throne for 15000 and 20000? Don't be thinking we all know you'll go there.

[Sniper]

Don't be silly. I want a stripper and at least a supermodel on 20000

[pyrocam]

I can make one for you if you want spank. no probs. ill have a look at it now


something I noticed at gbbikers.co.uk is they had a little icon for 'site donator' or words to that effect.... just thinking out loud.

[pyrocam]

first ones:
large: http://www.pyrocam.com/files/images/test1.gif
and the right size
....

<img src="http://www.pyrocam.com/files/images/test2.gif">

but I'll work on it a bit more, a bit too small I think. I assume you wanted the eye-visor part in spankme? if you just want a dot.....

[SpankMe]

Just the red dot.

[pyrocam]

Just the red dot.
roger. working on that now.

10px x 60px you say.

done.
Ok well in a few mins yes

[SpankMe]

Any progress?

[Sniper]

Actually, I want the girl in Spanks Avatar

[pyrocam]

Any progress?
ha. Totally onto it.

let me find the last one I did

[pyrocam]

test 3 is the latest version. just tell me how you want it changed.

[Hitcher]

Not enough drama. Seems a bit lame for all those who have sacrificed real lives to acquire 10,000 net posts (excluding those lost to PD)...

And how well does it work in "The Dark Universe"?

[SpankMe]

Maybe a little bit bigger. Slightly longer tail that fades off. Needs to be bright red with a glow if that is possible at that size.

[pyrocam]

try this for drama


and err. dark universe would look like this http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/showpost.php?p=536884&postcount=5676

(drop the ZOMG WIN part of course)

[SpankMe]

Looks the same.

[pyrocam]

Looks the same.
havent fixed it yet. just a sec

[pyrocam]

ok heres the next one
27800

or a slightly more elongated version
27801

[Hitcher]

Woo hoo! A red racing tadpole!

[SpankMe]

hmm, it's just not doing it for me. I guess the Cylon eye is just not as good without the sound effect. Thanks anyway pyrocam.

Anyone got any other ideas?

[Hitcher]

A pink triangle?

[Colapop]

How about the same thing but a series of lights? (been done with Knight Rider)? Very kistchy old school?
Or how about a spinning bike wheel? Sort of ironinc - more time on here less time riding.

[bugjuice]

knight rider.. that's what I'd want..

[Colapop]

It's just a means for you to get hold of the Hoff!!

[bugjuice]

pfft.. don't want that poof.. i want the car..

[Colapop]

Oh, K.I.T.T?
as seen on tv (http://www.knightrideronline.com/)
Like those lights....
