Forum Rank suggestions.

[Miku Forum Mod 132]

So yeah, I was thinking about this for awhile, and since I'm a huge forum whore and like when forums are active, I thought I'd suggest something. This "Something" would probably take awhile to do, but I believe it would be worth it.

 

For starters, on many other forums, not neccesarily for minecraft or games, there are posistions or titles/ranks one can or could have the oppertunity to recieve. Here are my ideas of the whole forum.

 

Lets start with post count titles, these would be a cool little thing to have under a players name for a specific amount of forum posts that you have, a title defining the members.

 

0 -  14 posts would indicate that you are a member, and have just began posting on the forums. The title would just say member. And be your basic color.

 

15 - 40 posts would indicate that you are a "Wooden" Member, and are starting to post more content on the forums. The title would say Wooden Member and obviously be a brown color.

 

41 - 100 posts would indicate that you are a "Stone" Member, and have posted a good amount of content and have been somewhat active on the forums, the color would be Dark gray.

 

101 - 210 posts would indicate that you are a "Iron" Member. You will have posted a decent amount of content, replied and interacted with others slightly and created some of your own threads. Color would be white.

 

211 - 350 posts would indicate that you are a "Gold" Member. You will have posted/created the ideal amount of content, replied in a decent amount of threads and are over all, active as a forum member. The color would be yellow or gold.

 

351 - 450 posts would indicate that you are a "Diamond" Member. You will have been greatly active during your time on the forums. Posted a great amount of content, replied and are even starting to help others in need of forum related help. Color would be cyan.

 

451 - 600 posts would indicate that you are an "Emerald" Member. You are over all active with creating, posting, and replying to others on the forums. Helping people with other things related to the forums, and posting more suggestions. Color would be light green.

 

601 - 1000 posts indicates that you are a "Obsidian" Member. You pass the active marker and are now dedicated to your forums and to helping others aswell as posting content consistantly. The color would be blackish.

 

1001 - 1500 posts would indicate that you are a "Bedrock" Member. You are the picture of Forum dedication, you will have helped many people, replied to who knows how many posts and have been active daily. The color would be dark blueish.

 

1501 - Infinite posts would indicate that you are now a Forum Veteran. You are now a Veteran of the forums. You have posted daily, and are active alot more than you should be. You urge people to stay active on the forums and help others constantly with thier forum needs. You plan on exceeding the posting limit without spam, and follow all the rules. The title could be any color.

 

 

Now for the post count titles it would be a little Tag under your name on the forums, and it would be colored

Not your actual name though lets save that for something else.

 

Addtional tags could include:

 

A "Forum V.I.P" Rank which could be donated for, basically to change the color of your display name on the forums. However, the color would need to be selected from a set list of colors, that do not match the staffs ranks. Then again, perhaps the title would give it away xD but yeah.

 

A Title for the top donar of the month, aswell as an additional title for the top voter of the month.

These could be colored, but would be chosen by the staff. The names would be "Top Contributor" and "Top Voter."

 

 

Here is a picture to break the amount of words you've read (If you got this far ily. Continue)

 

 

 

Now for the Staff Ranks:

 

Please keep in mind that this is just a suggestion, not a Demand.

 

There would be two staff ranks.

 

A Forum Moderator:

Basically would moderate the forums activily enforcing the rules of the forums, helping players that need forum help, moving threads to where they need to be and overall be a forum lover.

The requirements for this staff rank would be to have atleast 150 forum posts (NON spam) and be mature enough to handle the forums daily.

 

A Forum Administrator:

This person would do everything that a forum mod would do, and also have the power to archive threads, sticky helpful forum posts, and the ability to grant Donation titles/rank name/colors on the forums.

 

Thats it for the Staff.

 

 

If you buy a donation rank on the game(ingame) You could post proof in a section that could be created on the forums, allowing a Forum Admin/Admin to grant your color name based on what it is ingame, and handle other things aswell.

 

For example the rank names ingame based on if there is a name for the ranks you would be able to grant them it. So lets say someone was on Survival and they bought the Vip Rank, or something.

 

On the forums they would post proof of them being VIP and thier name color and title would be changed, adding a tag that would say Survival VIP

 

On the other hand if the donation isnt a rank, and is for a kit or items/money they would get a seperate rank, based on what they donated for, lets say A skywars kit or something.

They would recieve a title called Skywars Donator.

 

Last but not least, The implementation of FORUM RULES.

These rules would consist of something like:

 

 

- No Double posting.

- English is highly preffered.

- No advertising other servers on the forums.

- Do not spam for post count.

- Do not have a HUGE signature.

- When posting use atleast a sentence, and the same goes with replying.

More Rules could be added but those are just my suggestions ^

 

Another quick thing. The Forum Games section of the forum should not give you post count, and you shouldnt be able to Like your own posts.

 

 

Thank you for taking the time to Read my fairly large forum suggestion. If you made it all the way here then you have my respect

 

I'll post more suggestions if I think of any. See you - Miku

Sound like good ideas Miku, I already think that the post -> rank is somewhat incorporated already but would be cool to have it more minecraftish. From the staff list it also seems as though there are already some mods and admins on the forums. But it would also be a good idea to get some forum staff that are active a lot and allow the server staff to not also have to guard the forums and be active at multiple places at the same time.

I'm pretty sure this is built into almost every forum software in existance so it's entirely possible.

 

 

 

 

A "Forum V.I.P" Rank which could be donated for, basically to change the color of your display name on the forums. However, the color would need to be selected from a set list of colors, that do not match the staffs ranks. Then again, perhaps the title would give it away xD but yeah.

 

A Title for the top donar of the month, aswell as an additional title for the top voter of the month.

These could be colored, but would be chosen by the staff. The names would be "Top Contributor" and "Top Voter."

 

 

 

I believe we have plans to do something like this.

 

 

 

A Forum Moderator:

Basically would moderate the forums activily enforcing the rules of the forums, helping players that need forum help, moving threads to where they need to be and overall be a forum lover.

The requirements for this staff rank would be to have atleast 150 forum posts (NON spam) and be mature enough to handle the forums daily.

 

A Forum Administrator:

This person would do everything that a forum mod would do, and also have the power to archive threads, sticky helpful forum posts, and the ability to grant Donation titles/rank name/colors on the forums.

 

 

If the forums start to blow up, something like this will most definitely be taken into consideration.

 

 

 

If you buy a donation rank on the game(ingame) You could post proof in a section that could be created on the forums, allowing a Forum Admin/Admin to grant your color name based on what it is ingame, and handle other things aswell.

 

For example the rank names ingame based on if there is a name for the ranks you would be able to grant them it. So lets say someone was on Survival and they bought the Vip Rank, or something.

 

On the forums they would post proof of them being VIP and thier name color and title would be changed, adding a tag that would say Survival VIP

 

On the other hand if the donation isnt a rank, and is for a kit or items/money they would get a seperate rank, based on what they donated for, lets say A skywars kit or something.

They would recieve a title called Skywars Donator.

 

 

 

We're planning on processing payments with our own forum software. If i recall correctly, automating this would be an easy task.

 

 

 

These rules would consist of something like:

 

 

- No Double posting.

- English is highly preffered.

- No advertising other servers on the forums.

- Do not spam for post count.

- Do not have a HUGE signature.

- When posting use atleast a sentence, and the same goes with replying.

More Rules could be added but those are just my suggestions ^

 

 

 

Once we find a good place to put forum rules, we can do that.
