Good grief Leonard, that response was nothing short of obtuse.
You are saying "we" discussed the ranking system extensively, I assume you are referring to your staff only? This smacks of autocratism, verging on ignorance. I am not interested in your CV and how many years you have in developing successful forums, I am more interested in why your conceived model for this forum requires a bulldozer? We are not resistant to change, but we have hung around here, some more than others, whilst O2 allowed an excellent forum go into meltdown.
Abs did a sterling job of gently steering this new forum into recovery mode, but all his great work is being slowly unpicked.
None of the former superusers care about this silly title, but they do care that you seem to think that silly titles make a forum. Offering new levels will not make anybody contribute more, most of us are adults, some of us have undeniable life experience and education. Forum titles have no value to us.
It may just be a personal thing, but I always feel patronised whenever you post in response.
I have no faith in you whatsoever. But there again, who am I?
