Maurice 274 Report post Posted January 6, 2011 Hey all, Since the community has grown quite a lot since 2009, I think it would be nice to start "prettyfying" and organizing the forum a little bit. And I think we could use your help for that! What I was thinking we could do is implement new ranks and icons for members. Right now, the only two ranks we have are: Members and Advanced Members (not including the staff like moderators). We also have a special group called "Donators" (only one person in it so far). It would be interesting to have more of them and eventually DC-related. For example: 0 posts and more => Novice 10 posts and more => Detective boy 50 posts and more => High-school detective 100 posts and more => Detective etc... or we could be original and have: 0 posts and more => Genta's friend 10 posts and more => Ayumi's friend 50 posts and more => Mitsuhiko's friend 100 posts and more => Detective Boys 500 posts and more => Ai's friend 1000 posts and more => Ran's friend 2500 posts and more => Gin's nemesis etc... You get the idea. So, what I'm asking of you guys is to suggest nice/cool/fun ranks and then we'll choose the best ones (or do a vote, we'll see). Don't hesitate to think outside of the box! As for the icons, you may have noticed that we only have: x number of dots for members: Admin: Moderators: Once we decide on the ranks or if you feel motivated, we would really like some suggestions or designs for the icons as well. For example, it could be Genta's face for the "Genta's friend" rank, etc... Again, any idea is welcome. Just let your imagination go wild! I hope this is gonna be a successful little event here and that you guys have fun with it. Thank you and may the fun begin! 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Southpaw 61 Report post Posted January 6, 2011 I think I like the first ranking system better than the second, but instead of going straight from high school detective to full detective, there should be other steps in between, like traffic cop (ie. Yumi), police officer, and then after full detective could be inspector... or something 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blueberry 25 Report post Posted January 6, 2011 500 posts shrunken high school detective or maybe 10000 posts blueberry's friend hehe nvm or maybe just like southpaw suggested 0 = Detective kogoro 10 = inspector megure 100 = officer takiki 500 = detective Hieji 1000 = detective Conan but then some people will argue about who is better :| Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cheesus 6 Report post Posted January 6, 2011 I say for Genta's friend the picture should be Eel rice. I think the one before Conan should be Okiya. Some other people in my opinion: Inspector Megure Sonoko? Kaitou Kid's Assistant? FBI agents Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ŧђǎт's how I ended up with my rank ' DCW's greatest sniper' and I don't want Τ☺ lose it. Hahaha... True, you can edit it if you want but the icon will stay. And the icon shows which rank you're at. For example, if it's a detective icon, we know that you're at that rank level even if you change your rank name, which is totally cool. As for quadruple posting, there are a few things we can do about that. First of all, if the person is seen to spam on purpose, he/she will be warned (there's a warning system integrated). And if it's too much abused, we could remove post counting from some forums like the General Chat one (i.e. post count won't increase). But really, there's nothing to win by spamming. It's just a rank name and that's it.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maurice 274 Report post Posted January 7, 2011 Yea, if like someone who is known for quadposting such as rjb, how will чöü know whether he is spamming or not? It's called "post quality". If the post that person creates is relevant, it's good. If he/she makes too many futile/irrelevant posts, then he/she may be labeled as a spammer. The other thing you guys need to realize is that we're certainly not trying to put the emphasis on "posting more and more" or to create some kind of competition among forumers for who has the most posts. That's really not the goal of this event, and neither is posting on those forums in general. We're simply trying to have nicer names than "Members" and "Advanced members" cause, let's admit it, they're a bit boring. :/ And that's really all there is to it. We're not promoting spamming and if someone is found spamming, proper sanctions will be taken. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Emy Ulfsdotter 6 Report post Posted January 8, 2011 I agree that we need new ranks, or at least more of them, it might make people more active. Not that I'm very active at the moment, my life got a little crazy around Christmas, hopefully I'll get back on track soon.^^ But it would be kind of fun with new ranks, I'll get back to you if I can think of a good one, but they should definitely be DC related^^ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Officer Kaoko 142 Report post Posted January 8, 2011 0 posts and more = Corpse -? Mysterious Person? Oww... that's hilarious ! Yes, we should do that ! 0 -> 10 = Corpse Oh, and as for my ideas and suggestions ... How about like this. Make a group, like which group would we like to be in. Group: FBI Black Organization CIA Metropolitan Police Department Detective Agency Etc. Because everyone of us have favorite groups, so, for instance, like if you joined the BO group, your title would be something referring to them . Black Organization: 0 -> 10 = Corpse/Tool/Guinea-pig/labs experiment/Shiho's Lab Testment/Gin's servant for brushing his hair, etc. 11 -> 50 = New BO Agent/Scientist/Burglar 51 -> 100 = BO Agent/Killer 101 -> 500 = BO Middle Ranking Agent/Assassin/Thief 501 -> 1000 = BO High Ranking Member/Skilled Assassin/Spy/Sniper/BO Expert, etc. 1000 -> 1500 = Boss's Fav 1500 -> 2000 = Vice Boss 20000 -> more = Boss Metropolitan Police Department: 0 -> 10 = Suspect/Victim/Corpse/Criminal/Prisoner 11 -> 20 = Newbie Police 21 -> 50 = Police 51 -> 100 = Police Officer/Police Detective 101 -> 500 = Inspector 501 -> 600 = Vice Intendant 601 -> 1000 = Super Intendant Haha, and so on... [edit] Oh and... I recommend to omit post counts from these threads: Questions [Forum Game] Count to One Million [Forum Game] Word Association [Forum Game] This or That And most of the Games' threads . hey hey sir maurice. Can you also add Shinichi's Girlfriend for us girls? :"> Kaitou's Lovey-dovey, Heiji's wife. hahahaaaaaaaa. OMG. anyways, the idea sounds nice. see my post, sir. OMG! I don't want to be either of them's wife/girlfriend/spouse ! Though I don't mind... Agasa, Megure, Kogoro, etc. ROFLMAO man I agree I like reading RJB's posts they're totally hilarious!!!!!! Mitsihiku is shiho 's dad I loled reading this also his posts are all like "gin spy because help shuu" Haha, aren't they ? They are hilarious. I hope he/she keeps posting more . OK, enough already, guys. Oh, haha, sorry for going off-topic ... MR M-O-D-E-R-A-T-O-R. You can change your own ranks???? How?

Officer Kaoko 142 Report post Posted January 10, 2011 Great idea! But what if you wanted to switch to another group? Would you have to build your rep/rank again? You've betrayed that first group, after all.. Umm.. haha. Well, you could, but you'll still have the record of the previous group you were affiliated with. For instance; Ex-Member of BO, Ex-Police Officer, Retired-Detective, etc. Haha, I don't know. That's for Maurice to decide . Oh, and how about to that specific post counts, like as mentioned above. For example: 0 -> 10 How about you can choose your title? Like, give more choice to the specific levels. For instance, you have 5 post counts and you chose the BO group. You could choose between the titles for your level... "Now you are in the 0 level of BO. Choose which title would you like to have : Corpse Tool Guinea-pig labs experiment Shiho's Lab Testment Gin's servant for brushing his hair Did I make it clear enough ? what the!!!??? first of all Agasa and Megure are a couple so... please we don't want anymore love triangles and you like Kogoro wait that means Officer kaoko = Eri (how come you like the old men and not the young guys) yup Hahahaha, yes!
