Forum Contribution Level

[ebdoradz]

great system guys,

saw this, this mornong in my profiles but wasnt sure what it was, how to use it. that thread is the clearest explanation possible. and the extra entry in sweeptakes is also a good thing. it have been discust more then once

I think this is a pretty good idea as well. But has it changed in the last few minutes? I could have sworn that it showed all three, points, level up, and activity. But now it only shows the level, well it still shows all three in the profile but not on the posts.

It did change, probably the admins fiddling with the options, since the three bars was a little busy for the postbit.

Ok good, for a moment I was starting to wonder if I was losing my mind.

We didn't want the stats overpowering the forum or taking up too much room so we added the level a user is at to the next level up bar and removed the other two. The full stats can still be viewed by clicking on a users name from a forum post.

Alas there is no off-topic section anymore

You need to be logged in to view the "Off-topic" and "Sponsored Deals" sections.

Great thanks Gav Looks much nicer having just the level bar.

Now I wonder if folding should generate some sort of reward?

Fixed.

Every folding team member get's an extra entry into the sweepstakes as well. So basically, a person's # of entries would be their Contribution Level +1 if they are also folding.

I'll add that info to the sticky.

I like it..

My only complaint is this..

"Level: 9 - 63 points to level up"

Its on two seperate lines..is it possible to put a line break in there somewhere and make it on a single line?

You may also want to watch for referrer abuse. You can just go to a public library computer or internet cafe and give yourself referrer points by registering on their IP addresses

Very cool idea idea Gav! I think I'm gonna split my posts between here and NCIX forums now. :D

What browser are you using? It's supposed to be in one line. Seems ok in FF3.

EDIT: Fixed.

How about a limit of one credited referral per month with the rest giving you no credit?

Looks like it's messed up in IE7. We'll look into it.
