Well, back to the drawing board on that one.
Treat this thread as a discussion on what, if anything, should replace it.
Onya m0nts, love your work. 8)
Yay love it :D
Awesome thanks mOnty
I honestly just think a like or dislike button for each post would do
Didn't get positive :(
Mmm, like an individual +/- section for specific posts? Then a point system where you get points based on positive rated posts?

Yeah, turn this into Facebook and add a like feature. ;D

m0nty has said on numerous occasions that this system can't support something like that. So unless the whole forum got an upgrade that won't happen unfortunately :(
Thanks for removing the cheer boo Monty I think new people joining looked to then to see who was good. There were numerous good posters with lots of boos.
The only other thing I would like too see is ossie hellopplz and I mods on most if not all of the boards. There was a recent increase in spam which I deleted most of as I'm on a lot of the day. There were instances where I couldn't delete spam and either it was only hellopplz or nobody who could remove it.
Apart from that I personally have no issues and loving your work. I keep tinkering around with my team an fan planner.
Thanks m0nty!
But I must say it looks weird without the cheers/boos.
I like KB's idea, or even just a like button would be good.
Maybe just a cheer system :P
Yeah, I wish we could do a system where each individual post gets reviewed! Maybe people could store it as a total point system (similar to reddit) but done on a post by post basis.
Also, m0nty, can you please reply to me PM from the other week? :)
I'd go with the reddit system where you can see a user's karma if you click on their profile.

Yes, this! It doesn't have to always appear, but you can see it if you view their profile.
Thanks Monty the system was open to abuse and even the hour limit was no deterrant.
Know you said the system could not handle comments on individual posts but surely if we have a like button on posts and the number of likes recordeed on the profile people can see how many likes the poster have and make judgement,
A couple of other matters that need addressing
We do need more mods to rteplace those that are now not active as Holz as siad and we need to ensure we have mods on all boards (there are a couple still un-moderated) now to assist with removing posts more quickly.
We also need to address the copy and paste issue although it had its benefits with the bots when not all was able to be posted. But it is annoying whebn all appears ok when you check preview and then come back in and find that article has been cut at at the first apostrophe dash or other punctuation marks, Still doing it by the way happened to me earlier today.
Really luv the work though and well done.

*cough*CheckYourPMsm0nty*cough*
But all good points, Ringo!
thanks for listening to the people m0nty 8)
boooo
I was just starting to enjoy being the second most infamous FF'er :P
It looks weird without the cheers/boos there.
BRING THEM BACK!

The novelty of the C/B wore off very quick.
Anything else would just be another novelty value thing, unnecessary to the forum IMO.
Yes, I would agree. We don't need a system like that really, it doesn't add much to the forum at all. What we should do though, is make the XVs boards count for posts. Then I would have a few thousand instead of a few hundred :P
Always hated the concept of a boo/cheer system. I say we just leave it as is and move on.
Yeah I think just leave it as is
But the forum could use an upgrade also

I was about to say the same thing, just post, and so be it, No need for anything after that in my view
There is no need for a rating system,, forum goers can work out on their own who the trolls are.
As for what could be added, a way to acknowledge certain achievements i.e. Elxam League winners, FanFooty Group comp. highest rank, Elite league winners, XV comps winners etc.
Maybe by giving them a special avatar or a symbol/trophy under their names. Something that the coach keeps until the following season.
Having to wait 7500 posts for a rank change after Veteran sucks. :(

That sounds ok.
Also, m0nty why don't posts in the AFL board count? If they did count there would be probably be more people posting there.

Maybe an Avatar for say Top 100 DT/SC finish, Top 500, Top 1000, etc. That could give newbies an idea who has performed well in the comps previously.

I agree with KB, it's something special if somebody can actually make it to the 10k mark :). Nobody even knows when the next milestone is, I am assuming it'd be 20k :P. Could possibly make one at 5000 post mark if people really want to :P.

Maybe just a slight rearrangement of the names Master Coach at 5000, Veteran Coach at 10000 and Coaching Legend at 150000 0r 20000. or Veteran at 7500 and keeping Legend at 10000
Different colored stars would be the only thing I'd change.
Mods have got green as their color for example.

that's a flowerton of posts :P
I just think it's a bit silly that someone on 9999 posts has the same rank as someone with 2500.
