Dear ADR Support Community:
The following message was sent to me by Harrison.
Feel free to present the problem of the ranking system to the community too...ask them to forge a solution with your scholarly prowess...
Not believing I have scholarly prowess, but, here goes:
I told Richard that the ranking system was antiquated and needs some reworking; i.e., Karma Chameleon, Karma Newbie, Karma Scholar, etc.
At present I am considered a scholar. WOW! I hope you folks don't start to expect too much of me
. I might fold under pressure.
Seriously though I believe we all contribute in our own way and wonder if a self rating system might be better. Justin is definitely a teacher and could be described as such, Slackwater is a fabulous researcher and should be noted as such, some are patients still struggling and looking for answers, I would consider myself to be more of a counselor (not overly brilliant but able to respond compassionately to others).
Maybe we could have a list of titles and self rate what we think our title should be when we sign up for the forum.
What do other members think of changing the rating system and, does it sound like a good idea to have a menu of titles depending on what you desire to receive from, or contribute to, the forum at large?
Or, maybe some other ideas as well.
