    "add your signature" now defaults to on when you post and also added total # of posts and the date they registered under their username of each post...

    Thanks to everyone for their comments and help -- Any suggestions or feedback, good or bad, that improve the board are definitely welcome...

    Clutch,

    I don't know if this is a good idea ... now everyone is going to compete for the highest number of post, and of course, as you can already see, people will post useless GIGO babble.

    Thanks everyone for the comments... appreciate it.

    Space Ghost --

    "I don't know if this is a good idea ... now everyone is going to compete for the highest number of post, and of course, as you can already see, people will post useless GIGO babble."

    Yeah, I spoke to one already on this -- you're right. The last thing I want is the BBS to become a posting contest. I'm also scared, as Johny Rocket mentioned, that newbies don't feel like posting because they have 0-10 posts to their credit.

    I would love to hear everyone's opinion on that .... thanks [​IMG]

    i love the changes cluth, kinda lets everyone know how long people have been posting etc. and as for the newbies i think it helps them out. me and a lot of other posters are more likely to take it easy on someone if we see they haven't been posting long. looks good clutch and like the auto signature thing

    Clutch,

    It would be nice if the last poster could be listed on a thread in addition to the person who started the thread. After a thread has gotten to 30 posts, the last poster becomes more important to me than the topic starter.

    The number of posts doesn't bother me :)

    Having read the board for a while before registering I don't think any of the users who post regularly, and therefore have the highest post counts, would clog up a board that they help make as entertaining and informative as it is for something as pathetic as the highest post count.

    My feedback:

    I wouldn't worry too much about a post racing comment. Remember when you post too much, everything you say will have less value. Also then that'll affect your credibility. Plus I'm sure we can all tell when someone actually spammed his way to the top. [​IMG]

    BTW, I love the always show signature thingy becuase sometimes I would forget to click it. Too bad the register date doesn't go all the way back to 96 or 97...

    Clutch, to make inferiority complexes of junior members and post-competitions even worse, you could publish a top-ten list of posters ranked by number of posts. I was surprised to see how many posts cabbage had. Or, if you prefer, you can rank them by quality of posts and leave cabbage out. [​IMG]

    Mango, excellent idea! I too would love to be able to know who the last person to post in a thread was. Say for instance you are holding a heated debate with someone, yet have alot of other work to be doing, you can save alot of time by seeing if they responded rather than re-loading the entire thread.

    thacabbage,

    Exactly why I mentioned it.

    The next evolutionary step along that line would be some type of personal
    portal environment similar to personal pages like at netcenter and so forth. You would sign in and it would have remembered your top ten favored posters and would pop an alert window if they have posted recently. All kinds of variations possible if we were recognized before posting a reply or starting a new thread.
    Cookie time!!!

    Thanks for your support.
