Down Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 You know... Wouldn't this imply some of us play VN's? Damn, I knew I had overlooked something... I like these titles quite a bit myself, but not being the kind of person who catches onto this kind of stuff easily, I'm afraid those who don't even bother with VN's won't really understand some of them. Inside jokes are the true essence of nerddom. That said, we can make more general ones. 0-40 Little Youkai 40-100 Onii-chan 100-250 Robot pilot 250-500 500-1000 1000-5000 Demon Lord And someone fill in the blanks or suggest other stuff...
Aniki Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Better than our current member titles, don't you think, Maef?
Guest Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 No, I'd rather not change anything than be called Onii-chan or Nii-san. Not everybody is into that kind of stuff ^^". Well that's my opinion. You guys do what you want, but I'm glad I can change my member title.
Aniki Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 You can change your member title, but you chose to remain a Veteran Member. Therefore, you don't need it. Can I have it instead?
Nosebleed Posted December 19, 2014 Author Posted December 19, 2014 After scrolling through all the suggestions I really think fuwabased titles look pretty neat and are a nice fit for this. Zaka's idea of mixing the previous titles with the word fuwa is nice and more subtle too. The text field can be kept but then you'd have, for example, "novice" as a member title and then the badge "fuwanovice" underneath it. They're a little conflicting. Or maybe no one minds this and i'm just being nitpicky?
jeftai Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 dunno since when we got so uptight with titles. inb4 shit hits the fan and we have to remove the titles because shitstorms about she/he/me/you being better then the other members only because she had spammed more then you. iam just gonna say either leave it like it is now or just make 1 standerd thing that does not give one a mindset that makes them think there better then the others.
astro Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 inb4 shit hits the fan and we have to remove the titles because shitstorms about she/he/me/you being better then the other members But I am better than the other members
astro Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Also what kind of person makes 1000+ posts except for you guys
Nosebleed Posted December 19, 2014 Author Posted December 19, 2014 Well we can just add more balls too. Can't go wrong with that. dunno since when we got so uptight with titles. inb4 shit hits the fan and we have to remove the titles because shitstorms about she/he/me/you being better then the other members only because she had spammed more then you. iam just gonna say either leave it like it is now or just make 1 standerd thing that does not give one a mindset that makes them think there better then the others. My original idea was to give a single badge to members after a certain amount of posts (possibly 500) but then I got complaints about how it was kind of boring that way.

Don't we already have that award for "contributing to the community by being active/ posting 500 times" ? Secret police is confusing itself ! Halhp ! I say, go for whatever you want, my only request (or preference) being : Please don't make it ridiculously cliché and keep it related to Fuwa (be it fuwa words or with Vn related titles).

Secret police is confusing itself ! Halhp ! I say, go for whatever you want, my only request (or preference) being : Please don't make it ridiculously cliché and keep it related to Fuwa (be it fuwa words or with Vn related titles). Exactly why I also decided to change it. That was just the very first idea that sprouted this. I'm working on ideas, it'll be related to fuwa one way or another.
Nosebleed Posted December 19, 2014 Author Posted December 19, 2014 After brainstorming and Zaka calling me out on everything I think I'm going to go for something like the pip bar for post count instead of ranks. I'll try to think of an idea for it (or give up and just add more pips, i found out you can have up to 100). If it was to add more pips, I think up to 10 is reasonable (meaning you'd have 10 tiers which is actually acomodating in the long run) Reason being that rank badges are more appropriate to set for user groups and not to represent post count. Although if you all want you can have a badge that says "member" for your usergroup like so: that was an idea that was scraped though but I wouldn't mind bringing it back if everybody wants it. But as far as post count I think not having words is more appropraite for the task at hand. On the other hand I think we could change the current default member titles to fuwa based ones. I think that looks better personally.
solidbatman Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Really no need for the badges. Leave those just for staff. Adding more of the little dot things would be good and all. Fuwa-based default titles are alright too

Fuwa-based default titles are alright too That was pretty much the conclusion I arrived at too. How does this sound for post tiers and titles: 0-10 (1 pip) Fuwa Lurker 10-30 (2 pips) Fuwa Novice 30-100 (3 pips) Fuwa Regular 100-250 (4 pips) Fuwa Senior 250 - 500 (5 pips) Fuwa Veteran 500- 750 (6 pips) Custom Title 750 - 1000 (7 pips) Custom Title 1000 - 1500 (8 pips) Custom Title 1500 - 2000 (9 pips) Custom Title 2000 + (10 pips) Custom Title In some years when there's a lot of people with 2000+ posts this can be re adjusted too
Lewycool Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Badges for Staff like usual No Badges for us peasants Don't make it over the top... like really.... I doesn't need to be crazy If you do... GIVE ME MY YURI To be fair, I don't mind the balls. I didn't really look at them in the first place.
RinXD Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 The dots really add no sense of achievement woo i posted enough and get another grey fucking dot but hey apparently members who actually participate dont need to be recognized or given a sense of achievement and staff is apparently the only special snowflake's that deserve a badge ~rolls eyes~ And thats the last opinion I give because it seems people cant objectively look at something with out personally attacking or insulting the person who came up with it.

Keep in mind that the forums are not all of Fuwanovel. A lot of us do things off forums for Fuwanovel, and I would like for them to be recognized as staff finally. It would be a nice little thank you to them. Besides, members already get custom titles after 500 posts to use whatever they want. Anymore text, and it will look cluttered imo
RinXD Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Not really but then again I said no more opinions from me cause ive been personally attacked 3 times in this thread so good day have fun backing down from the original statement of this thread
Nosebleed Posted December 19, 2014 Author Posted December 19, 2014 Right, I'm going to go with increasing the amount of pips for now. This was never meant to be a reward system to begin with, it was meant to represent post count increase in a not too flashy way, I realized this was a better solution than the initial proposal I made after brainstorming and so I'm going to go with it. I PM'd Tay asking to make the changes so that's that for now, thank you to everyone who gave me input and didn't turn this into an endless argument, I really appreciate it.
