I know there is already a ladder system in place, but I've just come up with an idea of a ladder system if you wanted to change it in the future, the one I've done is with teams.
Here it is:
Teams Ladder System
0-25 posts = Marylebone Cricket Club
25-50 posts = Sussex
50-75 posts = New South Wales
75-100 posts = Kenya
100-150 posts = Zimbabwe
150-250 posts = Bangladesh
250-500 posts = West Indies
500-1000 posts = New Zealand
1000-2000 posts = India
2000-3000 posts = Pakistan
3000-5000 posts = England
5000-7500 posts = South Africa
7500 + posts = Australia
 
What do you think?

 That lessening of post counts sounds an excellent idea - it'd certainly make post-boosters think twice before spamming through posting total drivel.

The captain issue has been solved now, as now mods are captains, admins are managers.

Well if new members don't see this trhead then they will not know who the moderator and admins are.


I don't see that as a bad thing as I think it helps them interact more naturally without the fear of thinking "best not say that to a mod".

If they need help from a mod or admin it isn't to hard to figure out how to get it, even for a noob.

  Pity I've been away JP !!     Can't we take some of the names thrown at us over the years?

    A western theme such as "Sheriff" of "Lawman"  would be pertinent.

   But is it ruthless enough? Personally I'd prefer something with a little more venom ....

   "Dictator"  or    "Despot"  has anice ring to it .   "Caesar" would get the message across tothe more argumentative members....
                            
       Best of all though   must be "The Terminator!"

    ....something very sinister in that title mate!!
