i remember when we updated the ubb software it had a feature where members could give other members a star rating out of 5, supposedly determining how worthwhile their contributions were. of course everyone who lives in social straight away registered a new member and gave themselves 5 stars and made the system useless, BUT, i think it could be rather worthwhile.
bluelight is here for harm minimisation, and social is just a malformed mutation of the drug discussion forums. so would it be possible to reactivate the star rating just for harm minimisation related forums? i think it only displays th star rating if a member has 4 or 5 stars, so basically if someone asks a question like 'should i rail 5points of k on my first time', the person would trust a response of 'no you idiot, take it slow the first time' from someone with 5 stars over a few people with no rating who say 'nah, do a gram you softcock'. also would it be possible that you can only rate people if you have a certain number of posts (50 or so i think). therefore the ratings would be real, and people would have a much better guide.
just a small thing that i think could make the forums a lot more focused on the harm minimisation thingy.
oh yeah, and BT can have 5 stars and a bonus 'my little pony' sticker cos he's so good
