your compassion is admirable candle. what a humanitarian...

but it's also totally misplaced.

the point is we want to make being an ELITE member something rare; something desirable; something not available to the common joe; something....elite.


and even if we don't make ELITE only available to the top 10, we obviously need to raise the bar on what it takes to get there.

i agree.

but if we say you need 2000 posts, well, over time, it's gonna get flooded again (and once again won't be all that 'elite')

that's why i favor a limited amount of places.

but i suppose it's possible to keep changing the requirements. (u know, from 2000 to 3000 to 4000 etc..)

as far as your asinine "super elite" and even more asinine "ultra super elite" (please!) go -- forget it!
i'm leaving elitetrader if that happens.

thankfully i think there's no way anyone would support such cheesy titles.

In view of the fact that we are not in agreement, I vote to maintain the status quo... if it ain't broken, don't fix it...
 
I thought it was funny a while back when someone suggested that having a extraordinarily high posts per day number would give you "Aphex Member" status. :D

IMPROVEMENT candle, it's about IMPROVEMENT.
 
I don't think that there should be any more separations in status setup. But I am an advocate of the Chit Chat (and a few other areas) not counting towards the overall posting number. Several occupants in the higher class currently would lose quite a few of their counted total too. That would then make the significance of the "Elite" at this site really mean what it should. :)
 
Member rank should be based on audited trading returns. :p Members could be ranked by their profitability. Rank #1 would be the most profitable trader. I'm kidding, of course. However, that would be cool though. :cool:

"Elite" is about participation, irrespective of which forum you are participating in... posting in one section over another doesnt enhance or reduce the post quality...

To repeat, Elite Membership is about participation, not quality... who is to judge if a post made in one forum is of higher or lesser quality than in another forum?

I agree... if such an idea could be implemented, that would be way cool...

Whether or not it is improvement is debatable.... its only an improvement in your view... ROFL!!

yes, you're right. it's an improvement from my point of view.

but the point was that these ideas SHOULD be put forward and discussed; not simply defer to the status quo.
