Top 25 members..

Just noticed I'm in the top 25 lol! cool. But the points system seems to be a bit wack. I mean, there's someone with zero forum posts (no offence guy!) in the top 25...

There are a couple of anonymous's, but there's one that's ok, but with zero posts. Doesn't seem entirely fair to me, especially as I now know I'm in there! :)

I hear you buddy, small glitch it seems. Funny though.

Been holding on to this rant....thank you for opening this up...I agree it is not fair AT ALL..Raveyd & MacApple you have saved me soo much time and you well deserve the title ...you guys rock....but for Anonymous feature I think should be removed or heavily restricted. I have a anonymous follower...don't mind secret admirers but it's a bit freaky....can't delete them... Can't send them a message...now they are crowned top 25...hogwash ...and mr zero posts....are you just another stalker...ahem secret admirer of many? Please let's honor those that take time For FREE to help us newbies and banish the peasants!! OFF with their heads I say....if we have a top 25 honor them appropriately ...Or just git rid of a hierarchy system .

I never liked the points systems. It encourages users to post one word answers. Ahem. I never looked at the top 25, finally see what you mean:)

Seen plenty of those recently! It's flawed but it's early days. Hopefully it'll be refined over time and somehow be able to differentiate between users mostly asking for help vs users mostly trying to help!

I hear you Raveyd. Early doors yet. Sure half of my posts are idle chit chat but I also have a private message inbox that is full and have been on here for, I dunno, 18 months. It'll all get ironed out over time but I still think it is a good idea in some shape of form. Shows trustworthy people, BT vets etc.

lol Raveyd...just sticking up for my peeps! I think it's awesome that there is a system to establish the noteworthy ...top 25 is fantastic idea there should be a bit of reign tugging is all .....declining moderator throne...ex army menapausal woman are best useful for being good supporters ...too many people would be headless.... I appreciate the contributors and don't like anyone messing with the backbone of buzztouch

I like the top 25 ideas, which is encouraging for the new comers. For sure, there is plenty of room to improve it. Thanks for implementing the brilliant feature.
