Broncomaniacs!
Thanks very much for your patience while we developed the new features of the board. We know you've been waiting patiently while we got ready to unveil the new tools for the community.
We have now installed a contributor status feature onto the boards. This is your opportunity to decide as a community who has given to the community through their posts, their longevity, through making sigs for members or whatever else you deem important. It is solely controlled by the members and is a direct reflection of the kind of community you folks want to have here.
At the top of each post, you will now see a small scale near the report button. This is the contribution features menu. In order to use it simply click on the scale, and make a comment if you choose. Your opinions are then tallied, and that user’s contribution status is updated to reflect your input. A complete FAQ will follow soon that details all aspects of the system and how it works. Well, not all aspects. We're going to leave a few secrets for people to find on their own.
Everyone is currenlty starting with 10 "status points" at the Practice Squad level. This will display for your title unless you set a custom one. As members acumulate status points they can advance in level all the way up to Ring of Famer. Each level along the way includes rewards like the ability to have profile pictures, use larger avatars, access hidden forums and other stuff. Again, some rewards will be apparent and some you'll have to find out on your own.
Currently we are simply enabling the system to see how often it gets used, by whom, in what ways, and to see how many points flow across the board once it’s turned on. Based on the information this test period produces we’ll add other features and enhancements.
It’s a rather intuitive system, but the scale is hard to notice at times if one’s not looking for it. Again, it’s at the top of a given post near the report button. Please make Sure you're clicking on the right scale for the post you want to comment on!
If anyone has any questions about this system in the immediate future please ask them on the feedback portion of the boards and we’ll respond to them as quickly as possible.
A note: This system is not to be confused with a private messaging system. While other users cannot see who left which remarks, the staff CAN. These notes are not confidential – we have enabled the system to be anonymous to members so that we get a more honest level of feedback going through the system, but it is 100% available to the staff. While we respect your privacy and will do our utmost to allow the community to express itself freely, the staff reserves the right to observe and react to any portion of this system that is used to damage the community or its members.
Special thanks to Alastor for all his hard work building this system. It was a team effort between all of us, but he has definitely been driving the train.
Enjoy, and thanks for supporting the Denver Broncos!
