Contributors League Tables

[Ian Key]

I'm not sure about the contributors league tables that have recently appeared on the forums. I'm worried that it might encourage a proliferation of meaningless postings just to get to the top of the respective tables.

This happened on one of the Facebook groups I'm on where a person just posted controversial comments to become the number one contributor before disappearing from the group.

And how can banned members still be eligible to be listed?

Right I'm just off to practice creating drivel.
Who said I don't need any practice

Yep, not sure about them either. Didn't realise I posted that much! Don't know wether, that's a Tad, Sad Mad or Bad.

Yes I agree, I asked the boss yesterday if they could be excluded from the list.

I'm pleased to say I have not been given a label. It does seem a bit of a naff thing, something they might do on social media. Ooh I must get some likes so I know I have friends.

Or am I just jealous......NO.

Totally agree, it is a bit naff.
But what is this social media that you speak of.

All 3 of the above. Though if you had asked me before they appeared I think I would have correctly guessed the top two posters on here anyway

Me neither - though we would both probably be featured in the 'first-of-the-losers' list this month. Yes, naff, but then we already "collect" points and reaction scores, whatever they are

But what is this social media that you speak of.

If you're over 50, the social media site is called something like "mgevs dot com" I think

Agree that it's not a good idea.
Encourage quality over quantity.

Scrapping it then?

That's up to Stuart.
Its introduction wasn't discussed with the mods.

Yep that'll do. Bet you can't spell it. Without looking though.

Maybe Stuart introduced this new "feature" knowing that it would be seen as so naff that members will post less trivia to avoid being "labelled" ?

 

[siteguru]

Well that's working, eh?
