well here is your answer.

as a veteran of these forums, ( note my reg date, almost 3 years ago) that date was around when we switched to these forums from the old message boards at interplay. those boards sucked, interms of finding a post a few days old.

anyway getting back, as a veteran i requested the rating system be removed, because people like blitzkrieg a member for one week were giving veterans like me one star because i had to tell him a stern from a bow.

which doesn't reflect my true value as the veteran I am.

taldren honoured my request in the standing of respecting a long time community member.

No offence to Cruis.In intended, I want to emphasize that Cruis.In's view does not necassarily reflect all veteran players. (I know a few players who do not hold this opinion.)
A new player has just as much right to critisize someone's claims as a veteran, after all we were all newbie once.

Not all of the veterans have this "we know better than you" attitude (Or NannerSlug will have a field day with his "elitism" stickers...)

But without having the stars doesn't bother me at all...

Cruis.In, everybody should be proud about something he has done. but in real life, being a member of a forum for over 3 years is no real achievement, you won´t earn a single coin with that...
just think about it

Cruis.In · « **Reply #83 on:** February 05, 2003, 06:26:55 pm »

i have many achievements. and I am not so insecure that I have to list them for you.

my post reeked of sarcasm, go read it again. if you thought it was serious, then well.....i really have no advice I could give you on how to lighten up.

not surprising that someone who came here two weeks ago would tell me that I can't earn a single coin with my achievement of being here three years.

I've earned more than a single coin my boy...i got a starship.

Jackal99 · « **Reply #84 on:** February 05, 2003, 06:37:54 pm »

well, a starship is nice.... but i hope it is at least a heavy cruiser ... i won´t accept anything else as an achievement

Wow my name was mentioned, yes someone gave me a few starts then someone voted me down, big deal. Someone got a bee in there bonet eh? I may be new to these boards but Im more of an all around "veteran" when it comes to play computer games.

I never had any stars, really don't care if they're gone, couldn't care less if they come back... but I can understand that people who "earned" their way up to a solid 4-5 star rating would be upset when they're no longer there. But if we're getting rid of stars, shouldn't we get rid of post numbers and ranks too (just play'n devil's advocate)?

Cruis.In · « **Reply #87 on:** February 05, 2003, 08:18:01 pm »

heh, blitzkrieg i seen you on some server which was it.

i played triangle, activision B, and am on sfc3.net now.

btw, i suck, because look i have been here 3 years but have posted less than 270 times. hahaahaha

i am only around when i am on vacation or sick. now im sick. also i mainly drift in and out as the different sfc fade, sfc2 held nothing for me after the triangle 2.0 server was taken down due to frustration with rule breakers, the campaign was so good.

back now for sfc3, gone when bored...only to pay visits instead of posting.

so infact someone with 6 months here could be more valued because they may be a modeller, and contribute something tangible. i contribute nothing but discussion on the game.

which reminds me, go to d3 experiences, im posting a new thread. about big ships.

what was the point to my post?

Sounds Good I mean what is the differance if you have 1 star or 5 ..... or 1 post or 1000

I thought the stars were cool .. I mean even if you have been here for years that shouldnt matter ... you get rated on what people think of your posts

Blitzkrieg · « **Reply #90 on:** February 06, 2003, 07:36:11 am »

Yeah I quite liked it, its like kudos from your piers

likkerpig was always a cool fella, too bad he was banned. someone must have been real mad at him.

This may sound harsh, but I simply can't invision ever caring about how a person on UBB board "likes" or "dislikes" me or the posts I make. I believe I had a 4 star rating with 6 rates. If that had been a 1 star rating with 20 rates, I could care less. I can't see anyone around here having so fragile an ego that a 1 star rating would break their confidence, destroy their self-worth, or make them insane. I know us trekkers are famous for not having lives, but COME ON...I say turn the stars back on, so people who don't like each other can use them in their flame wars and the rest of us can get a good laugh out of it. Either that or turn off post count, registration date, the whole kitchen sink, and leave just the user name. And if you find yourself fretting over your ranking on this board, in the words of William Shattner...........GET A LIFE!

Peace.

Harold Nez, another newbie...apparantly you care enough to post that badly spelled rant.
