Sounds like a perfect role for the TB. Oh, wait... :D
Defining "appropriate" is easy. Enforcing it is hard. Enforcing it on a customer who has paid money for a title is even stickier. See how this works? I know the one-liners seem amusing, but it gets a little more complex when you actually think it thru. @:-) |

I'm assuming that's a joke.

Keep raining on people's parades, pal, and you'll never be made an Ambassador, King of the Winter Carnival (movie reference?), or have any other titles, lands, honors, recognitions, or privileges bestowed. :mad:

And I was going to buy you "TSA's #1 Fan" as a custom title for kicks and grins. :D

Currently, there is only 1 title attainable when you reach the 10,000 post mark called "Flyertalk Evangelist". If reaching the status of "Flyertalk Evangelist" is equivalent of Platinum status, why not also give away Gold and Silver?
Or we might just drop the Evangelist title and use precious metals/gems something like this: 2,500 Posts: FlyerTalk Silver 5,000 Posts: FlyerTalk Gold 10,000 Posts: FlyerTalk Platinum 25,000 Posts: FlyerTalk Ruby 50,000 Posts: FlyerTalk Emerald 100,000 Posts: FlyerTalk Diamond |

We could. The question I had was why we should.
The OP made a suggestion and I was just offering my two cents on the issue. But I'm not opposed to additional levels of recognition for posting milestones. Many of us on FT are status junkies and we like our gold, silver, platinum, etc. cards and the recognition they bring us. And I'm thinking this might add an additional element of interest or fun for some folks. But it's no big deal one way or the other. :) |
And to continue the status levels - why not make it based on (verified) airline status levels?
As a QF Platinum / OW Emerald I'm looking about midrange. There are posters here with multiple top tier status levels...shouldn't they be the "evangelists"? :) |

Ought to have a special one for OMNI using radioactive isotopes: Uranium, Plutonium, etc. :D
But I'd have thought you of all people to suggest something along the order of Craftsman, Auxiliary, Philosopher-King. ;) |
How about correlating miles and posts with a measure of altitude (m elevation of orbit)?
See who is down to earth and who is out of it. :D |
