Dan Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) Similar to the ranks of VIP/Sponsor Etc Etc have a new icon for chatbox addict. (or something like that) Basically a rank for all those people who are continuously active within the chatbox. There would be a set amount of time you have to reach being in the chatbox, no sure what time this would be... And obviously this wouldn't be afka-able as you are timed out after a period of inactivity. This would encourage more people to come into the chatbox, meaning more of the community socialising together which can only be a good thing right? This would also look really cool. Just an idea. Please post your thoughts UPDATED IDEA: You are able to apply for the rank and a chatbox assistant will first decide if you are worthy of this rank. Its then up to a mod/ supermod to grant the rank to you. This would prevent the spam in the chatbox for people trying to gain the rank. There could also be be a forum addict idea implemented for X ammount of posts and X time online (Idea courtesy of Lightsy Edited March 5, 2014 by Melanie Iglesias 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikasa Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 I'm not too sure that we have a function that tracks time spent in the chatbox. I could be wrong though. So if we don't, there won't be a way to tell if someone deserves it or not. & also, it isn't hard to idle in chatbox 24/7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could decide who they feel is worthy of the rank and how often they see these people in the chatbox? Its just a core idea atm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olaf Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 I agree to the ranking but it would have to be thought of a lot. There would have to be a script implemented also to stop people botting ' . ' to keep them active on the chat box 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lights Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 I like this idea < But yeah, it would be pretty hard to implement considering like said, people just afking in chat ect... Even a 'forum addict' pip or something could be implemented, for people who have X amount of posts/ X amount of days online Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olaf Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 They should do it by amount of characters used over 4 weeks. Make it a monthly award. over the space of 4 weeks, all characters from every sentence you post in the chat box gets added up and if you reach a certain amount of characters then you will get the chat box addict award.

Jakers Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 I personally don't agree with this idea, much of my Online Time is spent in Chatbox, but I rarely talk, Hence not noticed as much. Just my thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my thoughts. i dont understand your comment at all. Just because you dont talk and 'you' wont get this rank means that its a bad idea? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakers Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 i dont understand your comment at all. Just because you dont talk and 'you' wont get this rank means that its a bad idea? You're looking at this wrong mate, you're saying you think you deserve this because of being noticeable. None the less, I'm not arguing, just saying I don't support this.

None the less, I'm not arguing, just saying I don't support this. Sorry if you can't respect my opinion. I dont deserve anything. I have made an idea for being active in forums and chatbox. I know that people have been active in the forums for 111days and i only have 7. I have never said that I deserve it... Jealousy is a funny thing isnt it... The whole point is making more people 'ACTIVE' in the chatbox and your condemning it. Edited March 5, 2014 by Melanie Iglesias Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just un-necessary work making Chatbox Assistants watch the whole time to see whos "On too much" I'm not jealous, in no way do I want/deserve this rank as I've only joined the forums 2 weeks ago. Please stop hating on my opinion when you clearly asked for people to comment their opinion and then rip on them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
