forum user awards?

I like the idea and everything, skeleton, but really all this will do is promote competition. Tbh, the forums isn't a game. It's a place to share knowledge/information and have a good time with friends. We already have post count boosters as it is. If I saw an exponential increase of their population, I think I'd most likely quit the forums along with quite a few others. It's tedious as it is to have to refrain from commenting on those type of posters.

In short, it's a great idea, but it could be easily abused and bring outcomes that you never could have expected. :-/

@Apollo I know what you mean buddy. There are downsides as well. About it raising competition: it would 100% agree there.

Naw nope no ect , lol. As soon as we got extra forum titles we got a mass of post spam, useless and sometimes incorrect advice. Or..
Question-
Billy- I don't know the answer but if you have questions don't hesitate to ask for help.
Bob- yeah what he said!
Frank- I don't know the answer but meybe Ted does.
Mike- I don't know good question!
Ted- thanks Fred then adds the answer obtainable from the search function.
Bob- yeah what Ted said. Thanks frank for no reason. Then starts "what did you have for breakfast post.
I could go on for days
And I would for free vanities. I kid.
Many a truth in jest.

Simply put: No.

To much of a need for self-gratification around the forums as it is. All this would do is flood the forums with insincere, purposeless posts from people looking solely for a "title". People should want to post because THEY WANT TOO and not because they are looking to "win" something.

Sorry to rain on your parade. Last thing we need around the forums is more people who post useless information or repost what others say. Need to cut out the clutter around here, not add.

moral issues and false altruism aside, I nominate Royce for the title "Forum user of the Aeon"
Sure, I might compare Elly as the modern Royce, but that is still me comparing someone to his original greatness xD


...sucking up and joking aside (i do after all owe my GoAhood to copying him), and finally properly on topic, If future forum titles are to be added, they will need to be based of real achievements, not just opinion based decisions made by the devs. something like "first 5 lv66 characters!" or "Quest junkie!"
