i like it bravo. quality over quantity. on other forums, there are so many people with the rank of "master pua" or whatever you want to call them, who are idiots. they just respond to every post and thread, and it's obvious they don't have any knowledge of game in the real world, because they spend 24 hours a day typing on forums. a ranking system to be judged individually by your skills and abilities? thumbs up to this one...

I think a belt system is a more accurate way rather than the old Rep system because people would get rep points for posting funny pictures or other unrelated things rather than actual skill. Also this gives people a chance to see where the expert sees them rather than every random person in the community.

You used "gravitas" in a sentence. On a pick up forum no less. ha ha.

Bravo: I like this idea. Much better than the rep system on the other forum.

I think you should consider having a color for "retired, but was getting good." (smile)

Smooth, you should know that I like to use equal parts "words normal people never use in sentences" and "the worst grammar known to man".

Just to remind you guys...

this is an INTERNET FORUM. Your rank here means absolutely nothing.

I would actually be perfectly happy if I were a blue belt forever. Because blue is my favourite colour. And is awesome.

Just try to bear this in mind whilst discussing the system (which I actually think is very creative and...well, Bravo-esque ;)). Let's not get silly and worry too much over our rank, eh?

Cheers boys

interesting first post....

2 things

dont think anyone is getting silly or worrying about (they may one day but not now)

and as of right now rank does mean something, anyone who I promoted has proven to me that they know some shit
